Few studies have reported the real-world use of both romiplostim and eltrombopag in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). TRAIT was a retrospective observational study aimed to evaluate the platelet responses and adverse effects associated with the use of these thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs) in adult patients with ITP in the United Kingdom. Of 267 patients (median age at diagnosis, 48 years) with ITP (primary ITP n = 218, secondary ITP n = 49) included in the study, 112 (42%) received eltrombopag and 155 (58%) received romiplostim as the first prescribed TPO-RA. A platelet count ≥30 × 10
