This study evaluates the addition of Eltrombopag after Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to improve the engraftment of hematopoietic stem cell. Half of the participants will receive Eltrombopag,while the other will not receive the Eltrombopag.
Eltrombopag has been used in the treatment of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and significantly increased platelet count and decreased fatal hemorrage. As it's known that all patients with acute leukemia will experience bone marrow suppression and thrombocytopenia after chemotherapy. Some patients even died of fatal bleeding during this period for lacking of platelet transfusion or platelet transfusion refractoriness. So a lot needs to be done to shortern thrombocytopenia time or reduce fatal hemorrage incidence after chemotherapy in acute leukemia patients. In this prospective randomized controlled study, the effect and safety of eltrombopag in the treatment of thrombocytopenia after consolidation therapy in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is evaluated.
The primary objective is to compare the efficacy of eltrombopag vs rhTPO in complete response in patients after HSCT in China. This is a post-marketing, interventional, single-center, double-arm, prospective, open-label, non-inferior, randomized controlled study in adult patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in China. Patients will be recruited consecutively from the study sites during the enrollment period. The enrolled patients will be given eltrombopag or rhTPO under the conditions of informed consent and frequent monitoring according to the clinical guideline.
Aplastic anemia is a rare disorder characterized by pancytopenia and a hypo cellular bone marrow.but,It is very serious disease causing morbidity and mortality. Aplastic anemia can be treated effectively with haematopoietic stem cell transplantation and immunosuppressive drug regimens but haematopoietic stem cell transplantation has limitations due to its cost and many patient are unsuitable. Immunosuppressive drug has a significant number of patients have persistent cytopenias. Currently, the treatment of these patients is regular transfusion, which are expensive, inconvenient, and associated with serious side effects related to iron overload and transfusion. Eltrombopag is an oral thrombopoietin mimetic that selectively binds at the transmembrane and juxtamembrane domains of the thrombopoietin receptor, at sites distinct from the binding site of thrombopoietin therefore it does not compete for binding with the native molecule. It promoting thrombopoiesis and release of platelets from mature megakaryocytes. Also, promote other hematopoietic stem cell as well as in thrombopoiesis .
