Detailed Description
End stage liver disease is prone to thrombocytopenia. This study aims to discuss the Efficacy and Safety of Avatrombopag in Patients with End-stage Liver Disease and Thrombocytopenia in a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial. The patients were divided into one of the groups according to if receiving avatrombopag. Avatrombopag was taken to maintain platelet count 50~100×10^9/L. Starting dose is recommended according to the patient's baseline platelet count level. Routine treatment was taken in the Control group and Interventional group. This trial will take about 2 to 2.5 years from the first participant signing an informed consent form (ICF) until all study-related telephone follow-ups or visits end.

-
Known any history of primary blood (e.g, immune thrombocytopenia, myelodysplastic syndrome, aplastic anemia);
-
Subject has a known medical history of genetic prothrombotic syndromes (e.g, Factor V Leiden prothrombin G20210A, antithrombin III (AT III) deficiency);
-
Subject has a recent history (within the previous 6 months) of significant cardiovascular diseases (e.g., exacerbation of congestive heart failure, arrhythmias known to increase the risk of thromboembolic events [e.g. atrial fibrillation], coronary or peripheral artery stent placement or angioplasty, and coronary or peripheral artery bypass grafting);
-
Female subjects who are lactating or pregnant at the Baseline Visit (as documented by a positive serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin [β-hCG] test with a minimum sensitivity of 25 IU/L or equivalent units of β-hCG) or are planning to become pregnant during the study;
-
The subject has a hypersensitivity to Avatrombopag or any of its excipients;
-
Subjects with drug-induced thrombocytopenia;
-
Subjects whose Life expectation ≤6 months;
-
Subject with a current malignancy;
-
Subjects with HIV infection;
-
At screening, active infection was not effectively controlled by systemic antibiotic therapy;
-
The Investigator believe that any accompanying medical history may affect the safety of the subjects to complete the study;
-
The Investigator believe that there are any other factors that are not suitable for inclusion or affect participation or completion of the study;
-
Subject is enrolled in another clinical study with any investigational drug or device within previous 30 days of the Baseline Visit, but are allowed to participate in observational studies.
