New drug tested to shield cancer patients from Chemotherapy's Blood-Thinning danger

NCT ID NCT07252375

Summary

This study is testing whether a drug called hetrombopag can prevent a serious side effect of chemotherapy for nasopharyngeal (nose and throat) cancer. The side effect, called thrombocytopenia, is when platelet counts drop too low, raising the risk of dangerous bleeding. The study will enroll 35 patients who are receiving a specific chemotherapy and who had low platelets in their last treatment cycle, to see if hetrombopag can prevent it from happening again.
