  • Subjects must have Grade 4 thrombocytopenia (platelet counts <25 x109/L) due to bone marrow insufficiency (or platelet count ≥25 x109/L due to platelet transfusion). In addition, subjects must have had at least one of the following during the 4 week screening period: platelet transfusion, or symptomatic bleeding or platelet count <10 x109/L
  • Subjects with a prior stem cell transplant (SCT) must have relapsed after the SCT.
