None of the tested FcγR genetic variations seemed associated with the development of severe PLT refractoriness. In contrast to observations in immune thrombocytopenia, genetic variation in FcγRs does not seem to influence the chance to develop PLT refractoriness. Our results do not support determination of FcγR genetic background as a means to identify patients most at risk for PLT refractoriness.
