Immunosuppressive therapy (IST) with horse or rabbit anti-human thymocyte immunoglobulin (h-/r-ATG) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are two baseline treatments for severe aplastic anemia (SAA) and transfusion-dependent non-severe aplastic anemia (TD-NSAA) patients. Addition of thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs) to standard IST therapy (h-/r-ATG) has greatly improved the survival of SAA, whereas porcine anti-lymphocyte globulin (p-ALG) combined with TPO-RAs still had a matter of debate.
