Rituximab works by removing the lymphocytes that make the antibodies that attack platelets. You know that rituximab removes CD20-positive lymphocytes. This is the same mechanism for how it works in cold agglutinin disease and how it works in rheumatoid arthritis. Romiplostim and eltrombopag are stimulants of megakaryocytes. They are thrombopoietin. These medications are used when splenectomy does not control the disease. It seems that ITP is not entirely a “destruction problem” and that stimulating production seems to help.
