Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Overall response rate (ORR)
Overall response rate (ORR) was defined as the ratio of complete response (CR) + partial response (PR).CR was defined as a haemoglobin level ≥120 g/L, neutrophil count \>1.5 × 10\^9/L and platelet count \>150 × 10\^9/L in patients who did not receive a transfusion.PR was defined as not being transfusion-dependent (if previously transfusion-dependent), or doubling or normalisation of at least one cell line or baseline increase, or initial ANC \<0.5 × 10\^9/L increased by at least 0.5 × 10\^9/L after treatment, or initial PLT \<20 × 10\^9/L increased by at least 20 × 10\^9/L after treatment.

Interventions
Enrolled patients will be given Romiplostim (20 µg/kg subcutaneously once a week) for a minimum of 3 months.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥18 years, male or female.
- Diagnosis consistent with refractory transfusion dependence NSAA defines refractory as patients who have failed to respond to at least 6 months of prior first-line treatment with adequate doses of cyclosporine (3-5 mg/kg) and who have been treated with an adequate dose of at least one povidone for 3 months. Definition of transfusion dependence: at least 1 component transfusion on average every 8 weeks and duration of transfusion dependence ≥ 4 months.
- Satisfy at least one of the following conditions at the time of enrolment: haemoglobin \<90 g/L, platelets \<30×10\^9/L, neutrophils \<1.0×10\^9/L.
- Agree to sign the consent form.
- An Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 0-2.
You may not qualify if:
- Other causes of whole blood cytopenia, such as myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS).
- Presence of cytogenetic evidence of clonal haematological bone marrow disorders (MDS, AML).
- PNH clones ≥50%.
- Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) prior to enrolment.
- Prior treatment with ATG.
- Infection or haemorrhage uncontrolled by standard therapy.
- Allergy to roprostin.
- Active HIV, HCV or HBV infection or cirrhosis or portal hypertension.
- Any concomitant malignancy, localised basal cell carcinoma of the skin within 5 years.
- Liver and renal function at baseline that is more than two times normal.
- Active infection.
- Past history of thromboembolic events, heart attack or stroke (including antiphospholipid antibody syndrome) and current use of anticoagulants.
- Pregnant or lactating (breastfeeding) women.
- Participation in another clinical trial within 3 months.
