* avatrombopag 2.5 mg daily
* avatrombopag 5 mg daily
* avatrombopag 10 mg daily
* avatrombopag 20 mg daily

Participants who did not meet the primary efficacy response criterion in Protocol 501-CL-003 who otherwise meet the eligibility criteria for this rollover protocol will be offered open label avatrombopag 10 mg daily.
This is a parallel group, rollover study.
