Avatrombopag Combined With IST as First-line Treatment for SAA
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This single-center study aims to evaluate the early efficacy and safety of avatrombopag combined with immunosuppressive therapy (IST) in the first-line treatment of severe aplastic anemia (SAA).

| Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This is a single center, single arm, phase II clinical study. Fifty-three patients will be enrolled.
Treatment protocol is as follows: 1) Anti-human thymocyte porcine immunoglobulin (P-ATG 20mg/kg/d) or rabbit anti human thymocyte globulin (R-ATG 3.0mg/kg/d) was administered intravenously for 5 days; 2) Cyclosporine (CSA) is given at 3-5 mg/kg.d in divided doses for at least 6 months. The trough concentration is maintained at 150-250 ng/ml. 3) Avatrombopag is given orally at 60 mg once a day for patients with body weight ≥ 50 kg, and 40 mg orally once a day for patients with body weight<50 kg, for a total of 12 weeks.
