Investigational drug: Avatrombopag: tablet, specification: 20 mg/ tablet. rhTPO: 15000 units /1 ml. Treatment plan: This clinical trial is planned to carry out a 3-month drug study.

A: The Avatrombopag group was given Avatrombopag: 40 mg/ time, once a day, orally, for 3 months.

B: Avatrombopag +rhTPO group, Avatrombopag: 40 mg/ time, once a day, orally; rhTPO: 15000U/ time, once a day, subcutaneous injection; Both were 3 months.

Dose adjustment:

A: In the Avatrombopag group, if PLT≥200×109 /L lasted for 2 weeks or ≥100×109 /L lasted for 1 month, the dosage of Avatrombopag was reduced to 20 mg/d; If PLT remained ≥200×109 /L for 2 weeks or ≥100×109 /L for 1 month, the dosage of Avatrombopag was reduced to 20 mg once every other day. If the PLT is still ≥200×109/L for 2 weeks or ≥100×109 /L for 1 month, the drug should be stopped. If PLT rose rapidly and was ≥400×109 /L, the drug should be stopped and observed until PLT < 100×109 /L, and then continued with 20 mg/d.

B: Avatrombopag group +rhTPO: dosage adjustment of Avatrombopag as above; If PLT rises to ≥100×109/L for 2 weeks, rhTPO will be reduced to 15000u every other day. If PLT is still ≥100×109/L for 2 weeks, rhTPO will be reduced to 15000u every 3 days. If the PLT is still ≥100×109/L for 2 weeks, stop.

Statistical analysis:

Statistical analysis method:

SPSS 26.0 software was used for statistical analysis. The measurement data were described statistically by means of ± standard deviation. The changes before and after treatment were compared with the baseline values using paired T-test. Changes before and after treatment were compared using analysis of variance (ANOVA) or Wilcoxon rank sum test. Counting data were statistically described by frequency (component ratio). All statistical tests were carried out using bilateral tests, and the statistical quantity and exact probability P-value were given. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
