Nplate and Vidaza

Hi all,
Here are the results from a trial with Nplate in patients with low platelets during treatment with Vidaza: http://www.mdsbeacon.com/news/2010/09/14/nplate-may-increase-platelet-count-during-vidaza-treatment-for-myelodysplastic-syndromes/

Hi Susan,
They don't write anything about increased blast cells or fibrosis. The patients had only received Nplate during 4 cycles. Hopefully the patients didn't get that kind of adverse effects.
Kind regards
