Abstrakt: | Patients who receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) are at risk for developing persistent thrombocytopenia. Here, we describe treatment with avatrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, in a pediatric patient with chronic, severe, transfusion-dependent thrombocytopenia (<10 × 10 3 /µL) post-alloHSCT that was persistent despite treatment with romiplostim, another thrombopoietin receptor agonist. Following the granting of a compassionate use investigational new drug authorization, avatrombopag treatment was initiated, and the patient's platelet count increased. To date, the patient has maintained a platelet count >100 × 10 3 /µL. No adverse events or medication toxicities have been reported, and he has resumed his pre-alloHSCT activities. Competing Interests: Avatrombopag was provided via compassionate use by Sobi, Inc. The authors have no conflicts of interest to declare related to the contents of this case study.
