Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceutical, was approved in China in June 2021 for treatment of adult patients with chronic primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and severe aplastic anemia who have not responded well to other treatments
Hetrombopag Olamine is the orally active ethanolamine salt of hetrombopag, a small-molecule, nonpeptide thrombopoietin receptor (TPO-R or CD110) agonist, with megakaryopoiesis-stimulating activity. Upon oral administration, hetrombopag targets, binds to and stimulates the transmembrane domain of the platelet TPO-R, a member of the hematopoietin receptor superfamily. Activation of TPO-R leads to the proliferation and differentiation of cells in the megakaryocytic lineage and an increase in platelet production. This may prevent or treat chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia.
