The COVID-19 pandemic has cast a shadow over transfusion medicine based on the blood donation system. However, managing alloimmune platelet transfusion refractoriness (allo-PTR) has already been difficult. As a first step toward resolving this issue using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived platelet products (iPSC-PLTs), a clinical trial of autologous products (iPLAT1) was conducted in a patient with allo-PTR caused by anti-HPA-1a antibodies who had no compatible donor, and safety was confirmed. To produce iPSC-PLTs, a master cell bank (MCB) of expandable megakaryocyte lines (imMKCLs) is established from iPSCs. From this MCB, iPSC-PLTs are manufactured using a newly developed turbulent-type bioreactor and various compounds. Their quality, safety, and efficacy are confirmed by extensive preclinical studies. Based on the findings of the iPLAT1 study, a clinical trial of allo-transfusion of HLA homozygous iPSC-PLTs is currently ongoing and HLA class I-deficient O-type universal iPSC-PLTs are also being developed. iPSC-PLTs are expected to solve various problems, including allo-PTR in platelet transfusion, and greatly contribute to the advancement of transfusion medicine.
