Platelets produced in response to Xinmeige were morphologically and functionally normal and possessed a normal life span.
INDICATIONS Xinmeige is indicated for the prevention of severe thrombocytopenia and the reduction of the need for platelet transfusions following myelosuppressive chemotherapy in adult patients with nonmyeloid malignancies who are at high risk of severe thrombocytopenia.
