Perioperative Eltrombopag in Patients With Inherited Thrombocytopenia

Summary

The objective of the study is to estimate the response to eltrombopag based on platelet count increase above a safety level of 80 G/L and lack of requirement for pre-, per- and post-operative administration of platelet concentrates (PC) for performing elective invasive acts at mild or high bleeding risk,in selected patients with inherited thrombocytopenia (IT).
