Abstract
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an acquired autoimmune bleeding disorder characterized by the destruction of platelets and megakaryocytes. Its management has changed significantly in recent years, and at JADPRO Live Virtual 2021, David Hughes, PharmD, BCOP, reviewed the background and pathophysiology of ITP and clinical practice guidelines with an emphasis on patient preference when selecting first and subsequent lines of therapies in the chronic ITP setting.
