  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥18 years old, gender not limited;

  • Those who have not received treatment with immunosuppressants (such as cyclosporine, tacrolimus, ATG, etc.);
  • The patient has no HLA-matched sibling donor or is not suitable for first-line allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation due to reasons such as age, complications, or the patient's wishes.
  • Before treatment, the total bilirubin (TBIL) of the patient was less than 1.5 times the upper limit of normal value (ULN), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were less than 3 times the ULN, and serum creatinine was less than 1.5 times the ULN.
  • ECOG score ≤2 points;
  • Voluntarily join this study, sign the informed consent form, have good compliance and be willing to cooperate with regular follow-up for therapeutic effect evaluation and side effect monitoring;

Who cannot join

  • Pregnant or lactating patients;
  • Have a history of any arterial or venous thrombosis (including stroke, transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism) within half a year before enrollment and have at least two of the following risk factors: Hormone replacement therapy, oral contraceptives (including estrogen), smoking, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, drug-controlled hypertension, hereditary coagulation disorders;
  • Patients with severe cardiovascular diseases (such as NYHA Cardiac Function Score grade III-IV) within half a year before enrollment, known arrhythmias that increase the risk of thromboembolism such as atrial fibrillation, after coronary stent implantation, angioplasty, and after coronary artery bypass grafting;
  • Combined with malignant tumors that seriously affect survival;
  • Within 2 weeks after the start of the study until the end of the study, continuous drug treatment (including but not limited to aspirin, clopidogrel and/or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSAIDs) or anticoagulant treatment that affects platelet function for more than 3 days;
  • Currently, there is a severe or difficult-to-control infection (CTC AE level 2 infection);
Show all 13Show fewer
  • Bone marrow biopsy within 4 weeks before the administration of the first dose of the study indicates the presence of primary diseases other than SAA that can cause thrombocytopenia (such as primary myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), congenital bone marrow failure diseases (such as Fanconi anemia, congenital keratosis, etc.) Or accompanied by obvious paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) clones (> 50%) and AA with clinical and biochemical indicators of hemolysis; And the researcher judged that the subject was not suitable to participate in this study.
  • All laboratory or clinical evidence of HIV infection, previous clinical history of hepatitis C, previous hepatitis B infection, or active hepatitis at the time of screening. Laboratory tests during the screening period indicated hepatitis C infection or hepatitis B infection. (Defined as a positive HBsAg test. Additionally, if the HBsAg test is negative but HBcAb is positive, regardless of the status of HBsAb, HBV DNA testing is required. If it is positive, the subject should be excluded.)
  • Chronic liver disease-related AA (hepatitis disease-related AA, liver cirrhosis, etc.);
  • Had received treatment with TPO or TPO receptor agonists (TPO-RAS, including but not limited to eltrombopag, romisetine, avatrombopag, heltrombopag, rutrombopag, etc.) before screening;
  • Suffer from severe autoimmune diseases or immunodeficiency diseases;
  • Suffer from serious mental disorders;
  • Patients who the researchers consider unsuitable to participate in this trial, such as those with any other medical, social or psychological factors that may affect safety or compliance with the research procedures.

About this study

The study included adult patients ≥18 years old with SAA and TD-NSAA who had no HLA-matched sibling donors or were not suitable for first-line allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation due to age, complications, patient wishes, etc. After admission, they were treated with standard IST combined with rhTPO for at least 28 days. After discharge, the sequential treatment of EPAG-PFOS (with an initial dose of 150mg/d) was continued for 2 months (8 weeks), and the follow-up was conducted until the 6th month (24 weeks). It was compared with the historical cohort previously treated with IST combined with EPAG to explore the short-term efficacy and safety of this treatment regimen.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EPAG-pfosDrug

    The initial dose of EPAG-pfos is 150mg/d orally. The dose is adjusted according to hematological indicators, with a maximum dose of 150mg/d until hematological remission is achieved

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing EPAG-pfos in people with Aplastic Anemias, run by Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Hanbing (01069155097), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall response rate (time frame: 1 month, 3 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jun 2025.
