Drug trial offers hope for Tough-to-Treat blood disorder

NCT ID NCT03988608

Summary

This study tested whether the drug eltrombopag could help Chinese adults with severe aplastic anemia, a serious blood disorder, when other treatments had failed. Twenty participants took the drug daily for up to a year, with doctors checking if their blood cell counts improved. The goal was to see if the drug could reduce the need for blood transfusions and control the disease.
