Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of avatrombopag in promoting hematopoietic reconstitution after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 recipients with hematological malignancies who underwent allo-HSCT at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2022 to August 2023. Recipients with hepatic or renal insufficiency before conditioning, those who received other thrombopoietic agents after allo-HSCT, those with severe respiratory or circulatory system diseases, and those with a history of thromboembolic events were excluded. Among them, 30 recipients who received avatrombopag within 14 days post-transplantation were assigned to the avatrombopag group, while the remaining 30 recipients who did not receive any thrombopoietic agents served as the control group. Clinical characteristics, hematopoietic stem cell engraftment, bone marrow proliferation, transfusion requirements, transplant-related complications, and laboratory adverse events were compared between the two groups.Result:The median platelet engraftment time in the avatrombopag group was 13 days (range: 9~25 days), and the neutrophil engraftment time was 13 days (range: 11~21 days). In the control group, he platelet engraftment time was 15 days (range: 10~51 days), and neutrophil engraftment time was 14 days (range: 10~30 days). The difference in platelet engraftment time between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.039). Bone marrow analysis on day 28 post-transplant showed that the proportion of recipients with active bone marrow hyperplasia was 96.7% in the avatrombopag group and 73.3% in the control group ( P=0.030); the median number of megakaryocytes was 30 vs. 6, respectively ( P<0.001); and the proportion of mature platelet-producing megakaryocytes was 44% vs. 26.3% ( P<0.001). Regarding transfusion requirements, the median platelet transfusion volume within 28 days post-transplantation was 4.5 U (range: 2~16 U) in the avatrombopag group and 6.5 U (range: 3~32 U) in the control group ( P=0.007). The time to achieve platelet transfusion independence was 13 days (range: 8~25 days) in the avatrombopag group and 14 days (range: 10~36 days) in the control group ( P=0.026). The median red blood cell transfusion volume in both groups was 4 U, with no significant difference ( P=0.354). Medication adherence in the avatrombopag group was 100%. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of incidence of post-transplant infections (70% vs. 83.3%), bleeding (50% vs. 60%), graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (30% vs. 40%), or abnormal laboratory tests (86.7% vs. 90%) (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The use of avatrombopag after allo-HSCT in patients with hematologic malignancies can promote bone marrow hematopoiesis and platelet engraftment, reduce platelet transfusion volume, and shorten the duration of platelet transfusion dependence. Avatrombopag is well tolerated, and no serious adverse reactions were observed during treatment.
