Summary
This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well avatrombopag works for the treatment of thrombocytopenia after donor hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Thrombocytopenia is defined as abnormally low level of platelets in the blood. Avatrombopag is a small molecule thrombopoietin receptor agonist which stimulates thrombopoietin receptor leading to increase production of platelets.
