Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Lusutrombopag After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Run by The General Hospital of Western Theater Command · NCT07483385 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This will test whether the oral drug lusutrombopag helps restore platelet counts in adults after HLA haploidentical allogeneic stem cell transplantation for blood disorders.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18 years) undergoing HLA haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with ECOG 0–2, expected survival of at least three months, no severe major-organ dysfunction, able to take oral medication, and who consent to participate are eligible.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with a known allergy to TPO receptor agonists, those unable to take oral medication, or those with severe organ dysfunction or other contraindications determined by the investigator are unlikely to benefit from this intervention.

What this trial studies
This is an investigator-initiated, prospective, single-center, open-label trial testing lusutrombopag given after HLA haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to promote platelet remodeling. Adult patients with hematologic disorders who meet performance and organ-function criteria will receive oral lusutrombopag and undergo regular monitoring of platelet counts and adverse events. The trial will primarily look at platelet recovery dynamics and safety signals such as bleeding, thrombotic events, and other drug-related adverse effects. Findings will inform whether lusutrombopag can shorten time to stable platelet counts and reduce transfusion needs in this transplant population.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, lusutrombopag could shorten time to platelet recovery, lower bleeding risk, and reduce the need for platelet transfusions after transplant.
How similar studies have gone: Thrombopoietin-receptor agonists including lusutrombopag, eltrombopag, and romiplostim have raised platelet counts in other clinical settings and small studies suggest possible benefit after HSCT, but large randomized data in the post-transplant setting are limited.
