Use of Eltrombopag to Improve Thrombocytopenia and Tranfusion Requirement in Anti-CD19 CAR-T Cell-Treated Patients
[Background/Objectives]: Immune effector cell-associated hematotoxicity (ICAHT) is a frequent adverse event after chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy. Grade ≥ 3 thrombocytopenia occurs in around one-third of patients, and many of them become platelet transfusion-dependent. Eltrombopag is...

| Sumario: | [Background/Objectives]: Immune effector cell-associated hematotoxicity (ICAHT) is a frequent adverse event after chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy. Grade ≥ 3 thrombocytopenia occurs in around one-third of patients, and many of them become platelet transfusion-dependent. Eltrombopag is a thrombopoietin receptor agonist (TPO-RA) able to accelerate megakaryopoiesis, which has been used successfully in patients with bone marrow failure and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Its role in managing thrombocytopenia and other cytopenias in CAR-T cell-treated patients has been scarcely addressed. Our aim was to report the safety and efficacy of this approach in patients included in the Spanish Group for Hematopoietic Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (GETH-TC) registry. |
