Updates in Primary Chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia (ITP):
Shared decision-making in primary chronic ITP
Doptelet®(avatrombopag) is indicated for the treatment of primary chronic ITP in adult patients who are refractory to other treatments (e.g. corticosteroids, immunoglobulins).1 Treatment should be initiated by and remain under the supervision of a physician who is experienced in the treatment of haematological diseases.1
A key part of providing personalised care is shared decision-making.2–4

Collaborating with your primary chronic ITP patients on decisions surrounding their care is recommended by international guidelines and offers benefits for both you and your patients.2-5

When speaking to your primary chronic ITP patients, consider which TPO‑RA characteristics best fit their lives.1,7,8

In the TRAPeze study, among 32 adult patients in the UK and Ireland who had been treated with eltrombopag or romiplostin (the only TPO-RAs available at the time of the study), method of administration and food interactions were the strongest drivers of patient preference.9
Doptelet should be taken with food.
