Citrated PRP samples were analyzed by flow cytometry in CLL patients prior to and after receipt of 100 to 150 mg ABT-263 daily. Values reported as platelet count × 103/μl, mean fluorescence intensity geomeans for the entire platelet population (standard deviation), and sGPVI levels in citrated plasma ng/ml (standard deviation). P values derived from a 2-tailed unpaired t test comparing data from healthy donors with each patient group; ns indicates no significant difference. **P < .01; ***P < .001; CI = 95% confidence intervals.

One day 7 GPIbα measurement was lost.

Seven clinically diagnosed ITP patients (6 chronic, 1 persistent) with platelet count below 50 × 103/μl on the day of blood collection. Two of the 7 were receiving 50 mg or 75 mg prednisolone, the others were not receiving medication for ITP; the autoantibody target was not determined.
