Mechanism of action

By activating the thrombopoietin receptor, Thrombopoietin Receptor Agonists mimic the action of thrombopoietin, a hormone that regulates platelet production in the bone marrow. This leads to increased platelet production and, potentially, improved outcomes in conditions characterized by low platelet counts.
