Participant gender:

Summary
Elderly ITP patients have many underlying diseases, hormone contraindications and many adverse reactions during the use of hormones. TPO-RAs are oral small-molecule non-peptide drugs. Retrospective studies have shown that they have good efficacy and high safety in elderly patients. Therefore, this study is a prospective trial to evaluate TPO-RAs as the first-choice drug for the treatment of elderly ITP patients with contraindications to hormones, aiming to improve the efficacy-risk ratio of elderly patients

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- 1. The patient voluntarily signed the informed consent; 2. The patient is a newly
diagnosed ITP patient, aged ≥60 years old; 3. Two consecutive PLTs < 30×109/L, or two
consecutive PLTs < 30×109/L≤PLT<50×109/L but with risk factors such as bleeding (such
as previous bleeding history and/or anticoagulation/antiplatelet) Concomitant
medication) or age > 75 years; 4. Have not received first-line treatment such as
hormones, IVIG, etc.; 5. There is any hormonal contraindication (with active peptic
ulcer, recent gastrointestinal anastomosis, corneal ulcer, severe hypertension (high
blood pressure ≥ grade 2), diabetes with poor blood sugar control, infection that
cannot be controlled by antibiotics ( Bacterial and viral infections), heart failure
and adrenal hyperfunction, severe mental illnesses such as epilepsy, severe
osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculosis, fractures, patients with combined
antithrombotic and antiplatelet drugs, etc.); 6. The following clinical biochemical
indicators must be within ±20% of the upper and lower limits of normal values:
creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin and
alkaline phosphatase.

Exclusion Criteria:

- 1. Exclude immune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, antiphospholipid
syndrome, etc.; 2. Exclude drug-related thrombocytopenia; 3. Bone marrow-related
examinations suggest the presence of other primary diseases of the blood system (such
as MDS, AA, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, etc.) or the presence of
myelofibrosis MF≥2; 4. Participated in other clinical trials affecting platelet count
and function 3 months before the trial; 5. Previously received first-line therapy such
as hormones, IVIG; 6. Previous use of TPO-RAs or poor efficacy against known TPO
drugs; 7. The patient has experienced severe arterial or venous thrombosis (stroke,
transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary
embolism), or clinical symptoms suggest thrombophilia; 8. HIV, hepatitis B or C
seropositive or a history of liver cirrhosis or portal hypertension; 9.
Life-threatening bleeding (WHO bleeding score 4) or the patient is expected to require
salvage treatment before the first dose; 10. Has a history of malignant tumor or is
accompanied by malignant tumor; 11. The investigator believes that there are any other
circumstances that may cause the subjects to fail to complete the study or bring
obvious risks to the subjects.
