At present, the first line, second-line treatment can not completely or maintain continuous remission of ITP. New treatments in recent research include stimulating platelet-producing drugs, Syk inhibitors, and molecular-targeted drugs, etc., which can play a role in key steps of the progression of the disease. Among them, new types of drugs that stimulate thrombopoiesis shows a better therapeutic prospects with a comparative mechanism and clinical research, Syk inhibitors have a unique role in the treatment of malignant diseases in blood system, and the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells is a new treatment idea.
