Article Synopsis
- Avatrombopag is a newly approved treatment for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), with limited real-world effectiveness and safety data available.
- A study by the Spanish ITP Group involving 268 patients showed that 90.1% of those with low platelet counts improved significantly after starting the drug, with many achieving stable platelet levels.
- The treatment allowed most patients to reduce or stop corticosteroid use, and only a small percentage experienced thrombocytosis or thromboembolic events, indicating its potential as an effective management option for ITP.
