Abstract excerpt
AIM: Eltrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist for aplastic anaemia, can cause hepatotoxicity. It is metabolized by uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 to form an acyl glucuronide metabolite; however, the relationships among serum concentrations of the acyl glucuronide metabolite, UGT1A1 genotypes and hepatotoxicity remain unclear. METHOD: We examined the serum concentrations of eltrombopag...
