Brief summary
To investigate the efficacy and safety of roprostin in the treatment of refractory AA after radiotherapy.
Interventions
Enrolled patients were given roprostin (20 µg/kg subcutaneously once weekly) for at least 3 months, with discontinuation of roprostin for platelet counts ≥50 x 10\^9/L and continuation of roprostin for platelet counts \<50 x 10\^9/L. Responders were continued to 6 months. Responders continue to use the drug until 6 months.

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ORR | 3 months, 6 months | Overall response rate (ORR) is defined as the ratio of complete response (CR) + partial response (PR).CR is defined as a haemoglobin level ≥120 g/L, neutrophil count \>1.5 × 10\^9/L and platelet count \>150 × 10\^9/L in patients not receiving transfusion.PR is defined as not transfusion dependent (if previously dependent), or at least one cell lineage doubled or normalised or increased at baseline, or initial ANC \< 0.5 x 10\^9/L increased by at least 0.5 x 10\^9/L after treatment, or initial PLT \< 20 x 10\^9/L increased by at least 20 x 10\^9/L after treatment. |
