Avatrombopag for the salvage treatment of platelet transfusion refractoriness [PDF]
Therapeutic Advances in HematologyBackground: Platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR) is a life-threatening and intractable condition in hematological patients. Thrombopoietin receptor agonists such as avatrombopag promote platelet production and modulate immune intolerance.

Related donor platelet transfusion improves platelet transfusion refractoriness in hematological patients [PDF]
Frontiers in Medicine, 2023 ObjectiveTransfusion of HLA-matched platelets can reduce the effect of alloimmune responses on platelet transfusion efficacy; however, finding HLA-matched platelets in the population is nearly impossible. Almost all HLA-matched platelets from related are

Evaluation and management of platelet transfusion refractoriness. [PDF]
Blood Res, 2022 Platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR), in which platelet counts do not increase after transfusion, occurs in many patients receiving platelet transfusions. PTR is a clinical condition that can harm patients. The causes of PTR can be divided into two types: immune and non-immune. Most cases of PTR are non-immune. Among immune causes, the most common
