Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University
Brief Summary

This study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy of avatrombopag for thrombocytopenia in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who intend to undergo transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) and/or hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC).

Detailed Description

This is a single-center, prospective study to evaluate the efficacy of avatrombopag for thrombocytopenia in HCC patients who intend to undergo TACE and/or HAIC.

30 HCC patients with thrombocytopenia will be enrolled in this study. Avatrombopag (platelet count \[PLT\] \<40×10\^9/L, 60mg P.O. QD; PLT of 40-75×10\^9/L, 40mg P.O. QD) will be administered to the patients and last 5-10 days. When the PLT reaches ≥100×10\^9/L, the treatment will be discontinued.

The primary end point of this study is the proportion of patients with PLT \>75×10\^9/L or doubling from baseline. The secondary endpoints are the proportion of patients with PLT \>75×10\^9/L, the proportion of patients with PLT doubling from baseline, the increace in PLT, the proportion of patients who successfully receive TACE/HAIC, .adverse events.
