Use of Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonists in Childhood Immune Thrombocytopenia
Most children with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) will have spontaneous remission regardless of therapy, while about 20% will go on to have chronic ITP. In those children with chronic ITP who need treatment, standard therapies for acute ITP may have adverse effects that complicate their long-term use. Thus, alternative treatment options are needed for children with chronic ITP. Thrombopoietin re...
متن کاملAssociation between acute myelogenous leukemia and thrombopoietin receptor agonists in patients with immune thrombocytopenia.
OBJECTIVE The development of myeloid malignancies is a concern when administering thrombopoietin receptor (or the myeloproliferative leukemia virus proto-oncogene product, MPL) agonists. Progression from myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) to acute myelogenous leukemia [AML, 9 (6.12%) AML patients among 147 MDS subjects] was reported in a clinical trial. However, only one (0.15%) case of AML among 6...
متن کاملSuccessful Treatment with Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonist in Avoiding Splenectomy for Patients with Chronic Refractory Immune Thrombocytopenia
BACKGROUND Chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a condition associated with significant morbidity; however the management options are often unsatisfactory with a portion of patients exhibiting a refractory-relapsing disease path despite various lines of treatment including splenectomy. As a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, eltrombopag (GlaxoSmithKline, Australia) provides a novel treatment ...
متن کاملThrombopoietin in patients with congenital thrombocytopenia and absent radii: elevated serum levels, normal receptor expression, but defective reactivity to thrombopoietin.
The pathophysiology of thrombocytopenia in the syndrome of thrombocytopenia with absent radii (TAR) is not yet understood. We examined thrombopoietin (TPO) serum levels and the in vitro reactivity of platelets to TPO in five patients affected with TAR syndrome. We found elevated TPO serum levels in all patients tested, excluding a TPO production defect as cause for thrombocytopenia in TAR syndr...
متن کاملEfficacy and safety of thrombopoietin receptor agonists in children with chronic immune thrombocytopenia: a meta-analysis
Background and Aim Thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs) have been shown to be safe and effective for adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). The aim of this meta-analysis is to assess the efficacy and safety of thrombopoietin receptor agonists for children with chronic ITP. Materials and Methods Clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the efficacy and safety o...
