New drug combo aims to boost blood cell recovery in rare anemia

NCT ID NCT07345000

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding romiplostim (a platelet-boosting drug) to standard immunosuppressive therapy helps people with severe aplastic anemia achieve normal blood cell counts. About 210 participants will receive either romiplostim or a placebo alongside standard treatment. The main goal is to see if more patients reach complete blood count recovery at 6 months.
