Romiplostim for low platelets after chemotherapy
This trial tests a drug called romiplostim for patients whose platelet counts stay very low (below 30) for a long time after chemotherapy, even after other treatments have failed. The goal is to see if romiplostim can help raise your platelet count to a safer level.

- How do I know if I qualify for a chemotherapy trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a chemotherapy trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
