Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Eltrombopag treatment

Eltrombopag 25mg bid, starts from the day when platelet count decreases lower than 30×10'9/L, and the treatment lasts for at least 5 days, and stops until platelet count goes up to more than 30×10'9/L, after consolidation therapy in AML patents. Platelet transfusion application is routinely done when platelet count is lower than 20×10'9/L or active hemorrage happens to patients.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Eltrombopag

Intervention Type DRUG

Eltrombopag 25mg bid, starts from the day when platelet count decreases lower than 30×10'9/L, and the treatment lasts for at least 5 days, and stops until platelet count goes up to more than 30×10'9/L, after consolidation therapy in AML patents.

Eltrombopag free

Eltrombopag treatment is not performed in this group. Platelet transfusion application is routinely done when platelet count is lower than 20×10'9/L or active hemorrage happens to patients.
