Therpeutic effects of rituximb combined with cyclophosphmide on refrctory idiopthic thrombocytopenic purpur (ITP) were investigted. We retrospectively nlyzed 249 ptients with refrctory ITP who were dmitted to Qingdo Hiser Medicl Group between Mrch 2013 nd Mrch Curtive effects of ptients treted with rituximb, cyclophosphmide, nd combintion therpy were observed nd the chnges of pltelet count, PA IgG, nd lymphocyte CD20 before nd fter tretment, s well s the incidence of dverse rections fter tretment, were compred. There ws no significnt difference in the expression of lymphocyte CD20, PA IgG nd pltelet count mong the three groups of refrctory ITP ptients before tretment (P>0.05). After tretment, the expression levels of CD20 nd PA IgG in lymphocytes were significntly downregulted, nd pltelet counts significntly incresed in the three groups (P<0.05). After tretment, CD20 nd PA IgG levels in combined therpy group were significntly lower, nd pltelet count ws significntly higher, thn those in the rituximb nd cyclophosphmide groups (P<0.05). Also, fter rituximb tretment, the expression levels of CD20 nd PA IgG in lymphocytes were significntly lower thn those in cyclophosphmide group (P<0.05), nd pltelet count ws higher thn tht in cyclophosphmide group (P<0.05). After tretment, the totl effective rte in combined therpy group ws higher thn tht in the rituximb nd cyclophosphmide group (P<0.05). Totl effective rte of rituximb group ws significntly higher thn tht of cyclophosphmide group (P<0.05). The incidence of dverse rections in combined therpy group ws 14.29% (12/84), which ws significntly lower thn tht in cyclophosphmide group (40.70%, 35/86, P<0.05) nd rituximb group (29.11%, 23/79, P<0.05).

The efficcy of this technique is promising with no serious dverse rections. This technique should be populrized in clinicl prctice. Introduction Idiopthic thrombocytopenic purpur (ITP) is hemorrhgic disese, induced by the dysfunction of the immune system, which cuses mturtion disorder or thrombocytopeni. ITP is sometimes ccompnied by n increse of bone mrrow megkryocytes nd its incidence is reltively high in children (1). Clinicl mnifesttions of ITP re chills, fever, nd even sudden spontneous mucosl bleeding in the skin (2). Non specific tretment with lrge doses of γ globulin, glucocorticoids, nd splenectomy is effective in 70% of ptients with ITP, while the efficcy in the remining 30% of ptients is low (3). Refrctory ITP predominntly occurs in women, nd high dose hormonl drugs, such s immunosuppressnt nd γ globulin, re frequently used. Immunosuppressive gents hve low rte of remission nd my be ssocited with myelosuppression nd secondry tumors. Remission rte of γ globulin is high, s well s the cost, nd the durtion of curtive effect is short (4). In recent yers, ttention hs been pid to the tretment of refrctory ITP, nd some new immunotherpy methods hve been introduced (5). At present, cyclophosphmide nd rituximb re frequently used in the tretment of ptients with refrctory ITP. Although the efficcy of cyclophosphmide in the tretment of refrctory ITP ptients is stisfctory, the incidence of dverse rections, such s gstrointestinl rections, bone mrrow suppression, hir loss or even myocrdil dmge, is high (6). Rituximb cn cuse disorders, such s rrhythmis or hypotension (7). Mrtinez et l (8) hve stted tht the efficcy of rituximb in combintion with cyclophosphmide in the tretment of ptients with refrctory ITP is superior to trditionl single gent therpy. However, studies on the efficcy nd clinicl significnce of rituximb in combintion with cyclophosphmide in the tretment of refrctory ITP ptients re reltively rre. In this study, clinicl dt of ptients with refrctory ITP were retrospectively nlyzed to compre the tretment efficcies of the single nd combined therpy. This study provides reference for the tretment of refrctory ITP.

After tretment, the incidence of dverse rections in the three groups ws significntly different from ech other (P<0.05). Symptoms such s dizziness or hedche, nuse, nd vomiting were mostly self relieving. In the rituximb group, 1 cse of liver function bnormlity, 1 cse of renl function, nd 1 cse of lung infection occurred. In cyclophosphmide group, there were 2 cses of bnorml liver function, 3 cses of renl function, nd 3 cses of pulmonry infection. In combined therpy group, there ws 1 cse of renl function, which ws relieved fter trgeted tretment. No cute nd lte toxic rections were observed (Tble VI). Discussion ITP is liquid immune medited systemic immune disese. In ptients with ITP, pltelet utontibodies bind to pltelet membrne glycoproteins nd re phgocytosed by mcrophges vi Fc receptors (11). Tretment of ITP is imed t reducing pltelet destruction nd controlling bleeding, while overtretment should be voided (12). The most common drug for the tretment of ITP is glucocorticoids, but some ptients with ITP re insensitive or intolernt to glucocorticoids, which cuses ITP ptients to become refrctory fter glucocorticoid tretment (13). With the dvncement of modern medicine, refrctory ITP cn be llevited, but it is still difficult to chieve full rehbilittion, the incidence is high nd the tretment cycle is long (14,15). Therefore, the use of proper drugs for timely tretment is the key to control the deteriortion of the disese (16). Rituximb is CD20 monoclonl ntibody tht binds to Fc receptors on bnorml B cells to initite complement medited
5 EXPERIMENTAL AND THERAPEUTIC MEDICINE 17: , killing of cytotoxic ntibodies. The killing effect leds to the solubiliztion of CD20 on B lymphocytes, inhibited production of ntibodies by B lymphocytes, nd reduced destruction of pltelets. Rituximb hs been widely used in the tretment of utoimmune hemtologicl diseses (17). Cyclophosphmide cn not only block the prolifertion of B cells, but lso inhibits the production of ntibodies, which cn be used to ssist immunodsorption therpy (18). Gödel et l (19) hve shown tht cyclophosphmide cn tret utoimmune diseses by limiting the non specific killing of smll lymphocytes, inhibiting cell prolifertion, nd limiting the trnsformtion of virl cells into immune mother cells. It is worth noting tht cyclophosphmide interferes with the production of DNA nd RNA nd even cross links with DNA, which in turn inhibits the immune response nd prolifertion nd division of immune lymphocytes nd impedes the deposition of immune complexes. Cyclophosphmide hs been widely used in the tretment of lymphtic systemic nd utoimmune diseses (20). This study investigted the efficcy nd clinicl significnce of rituximb in combintion with cyclophosphmide for the tretment of refrctory ITP ptients. There ws no significnt difference in the expression levels of CD20 nd PA IgG, nd the pltelet counts mong the three groups of ptients with refrctory ITP before tretment (P>0.05). After tretment, the expression levels of CD20 nd PA IgG in lymphocytes of three groups were lower thn those before tretment, nd the pltelet counts were higher (P<0.05). After tretment, CD20 nd PA IgG levels in combined therpy group were lower thn those in rituximb nd cyclophosphmide groups (P<0.05), while pltelet count ws higher (P<0.05). Also, fter rituximb tretment, the expression levels of CD20 nd PA IgG in lymphocytes were lower thn those in cyclophosphmide group (P<0.05), while pltelet count ws higher (P<0.05). After tretment, totl effective rte in combined therpy group ws higher thn tht in rituximb nd cyclophosphmide groups (P<0.05). Totl effective rte of rituximb group ws significntly higher thn tht of cyclophosphmide group (P<0.05). The dt showed tht the combined use of rituximb nd cyclophosphmide intermittently results in the decrese of CD20 nd PA IgG nd increse of pltelet count in some ptients, which restores the bnorml immune function nd significntly improves the qulity of life. It hs been reported (21) tht rituximb is humn mouse chimeric ntibody tht reduces the production of utontibodies nd the combintion with cyclophosphmide cn increse the immunosuppressive effect. In the present study, it ws found tht the incidence of dverse rections in combined therpy group is 14.29% (12/84), which is significntly higher thn tht in cyclophosphmide group (40.70%, 35/86, P<0.05) nd rituximb group (29.11%, 23/79, P<0.05). Symptoms such s dizziness or hedche, nuse, nd vomiting were mostly self relieving. In the rituximb group, 1 cse of liver function bnormlity, 1 cse of renl function, nd 1 cse of lung infection occurred. In cyclophosphmide group, there were 2 cses of bnorml liver function, 3 cses of renl function, nd 3 cses of pulmonry infection. In combined therpy group, there ws 1 cse of renl function, which ws relieved fter trgeted tretment. Al Askr et l (22) hve shown tht cyclophosphmide is toxic nd combined tretment cn reduce the dosge of cyclophosphmide, which in turn reduces the dverse rections of cyclophosphmide nd the dmge to the body, nd increse ptient's complince. This study is limited by the smll smple size. Future studies re required to confirm our conclusions. In conclusion, ppliction of rituximb combined with cyclophosphmide in the tretment of refrctory ITP cn improve ptient's clinicl symptoms. The efficcy of this technique is promising with no serious dverse rections. This technique should be populrized in clinicl prctice. Acknowledgements Not pplicble. Funding No funding ws received.
