Clinical Trial Summary

Thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs) represent a highly effective and well-tolerated second-line ITP treatment that provides excellent responses.If there is cross-resistance between 2 drugs for the treatment of adult ITP is still unkonwn.The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of switching avatrombopag and rh-TPO in adults with ITP.


Clinical Trial Description

Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonists (TPO-RAs) are novel treatments for patients with chronic Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP). According to the findings of mechanism-based studies, rhTPO competes with endogenous TPO for binding to TPO-R while avatrombopag has an additive effect with endogenous TPO, indicating that the treatment mechanism and side-effect profiles could be somewhat different between these drugs. If there is cross-resistance between 2 drugs for the treatment of adult ITP is still no answer. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of switching avatrombopag and rh-TPO in adults with ITP.This is a non-interventional study. Patients who fail previous steroids and receive rh-TPO and then switch to avatrombopag or vice versa will be enrolled. The reason for switch will be recorded. The efficacy, safety, and patient/physician preference will be assessed and compared between the two agents. ;
