This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

Researchers are observing how well eltrombopag works in adults with hypocellular myelodysplastic neoplasms, a bone marrow condition that lowers blood cell counts. The study follows patients in Italy who receive eltrombopag alone or with immunosuppressive therapy as part of routine care. By reviewing medical records and bone marrow samples, the team aims to measure response rates, survival, and safety over 12 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
eltrombopag, a drug that stimulates platelet production
What this could lead to
If eltrombopag helps, doctors could have clearer real-world evidence for treating low-risk hypocellular MDS, either alone or with immunosuppressive therapy.
What could go wrong
This observational study cannot prove cause and effect, and results may not apply to all MDS patients. Eltrombopag carries known risks, and responses may vary.
