ABSTRACT

Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a complex autoimmune disease whose hallmark is a deregulation of cellular and humoral immunity leading to increased destruction and reduced production of platelets. The heterogeneity of presentation and clinical course hampers personalized approaches for diagnosis and management. In 2021, the Spanish ITP Group (GEPTI) of the Spanish Society of Hematology and Hemotherapy (SEHH) updated a consensus document that had been launched in 2011. The updated guidelines have been the reference for the diagnosis and management of primary ITP in Spain ever since. Nevertheless, the emergence of new tools and strategies makes it advisable to review them again. For this reason, we have updated the main recommendations appropriately. Our aim is to provide a practical tool to facilitate the integral management of all aspects of primary ITP management.

ABSTRACT

: Thrombopoietin receptor agonist (TPO-RAs) have demonstrated good efficacy and tolerance in clinical trials in refractory chronic primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) or chronic ITP with contraindication for splenectomy. No head-to-head study is available, and differences in trials design do not allow comparisons. Information on the use of TPO-RAs in nonchronic ITP is scant. We described our experience with TPO-RAs in ITP (chronic, persistent and newly diagnosed ITP) in routine clinical practice. Retrospective series of 100 adult ITP patients was analysed; 41 treated with eltrombopag, 37 with romiplostim and 22 with both. Response-related and safety variables were evaluated. With a median follow-up of 86.5 weeks (interquartile range, 34.3-128 weeks), no differences were found in response rate, time to response, stability of response or response duration based on the type of TPO-RA used. Of all, 25% of patients with newly diagnosed or persistent ITP and 7.2% with chronic responded and maintained their response when TPO-RAs were stopped. Regarding safety, two developed bone marrow fibrosis grade 3, with loss of response to both drugs. Incidence of vascular events was 7%. Both TPO-RAs may be useful in all types of ITP, not only chronic but also persistent and newly diagnosed. Similar results were noted in efficacy and safety variables for both drugs.
