Dear colleague,
First of all, this case discussion forum is dedicated to CML and not, ITP, and most of the experts are not strongly involved in internal medicine.
Second, as this patient has a non-adherent behavior, I would make sure that "resistance" to steroids and eltrombopag is true resistance and not non-adherence.
Third, make sure that it is pure ITP and not ITP associated with a more global autoimmune disease, such as lupus or sarcoidosis, as the treatment options will differ.
Four: If pure ITP and true resistance, discuss with internal medicine specialists. There are cheap and safe options, such as disulone (if no G6PD deficiency), before considering higher-dose Revolade, Nplate, or rituximab (usually, the response rate is quite poor with ritux). Alternatively, immunosuppressive drugs may be considered. Splenectomy would require making sure that platelet destruction takes place 100% in the spleen (by nuclear medicine imaging), otherwise it will be inefficient and harmful.
