Application of vincristine-loaded platelet therapy in three dogs with refractory immune-mediated thrombocytopenia

Application of vincristine-loaded platelet therapy in three dogs with refractory immune-mediated thrombocytopenia

  • 5

Three dogs presented with refractory immune-mediated thrombocytopenia (IMT). All patients failed to respond to prednisone, which is<br> considered a mainstay of immunosuppressive therapy. Vincristine-loaded platelets (VLPs), which act selectively on mononuclear&amp;nbsp;phagocytes,were introduced. After the VLPs were transfused, two dogs responded quickly withimproved clinical signs while the third dogwith&amp;nbsp;recurrent IMT was euthanized due to its deteriorating condition. This case report describesthe efficacy of VLP therapy in refractory IMT&amp;nbsp;patients.
