World Health Organization's performance status \>2. 2. Previous therapy with rituximab (within 3 months previous of study enrollment), corticosteroids or, therapy with other immunomodulating agents within 1 month before of enrolment;,prior use of hematopoietic analogs and or fostamatinib for any other reason despite ITP three months before enrolment. 3.

Splenectomy within 3 months of the screening visit or planned splenectomy during study period. 6. Abnormal renal function (serum creatinine \> 1.5 mg/dL). 7. Active hepatic disease (evidenced by alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\] or aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\] levels \>5 times the upper limit of normal (it will only be necessary to determine one of the two transaminases 8. Severe chronic liver disease as evidenced by, but not limited to, any of the following: International Normalized Ratio \>1.4, hypoalbuminemia, portal vein hypertension including presence of otherwise unexplained splenomegaly and history of esophageal varices. 9. Patients with known immunoglobulin M seropositive tests for cytomegalovirus and/or Epstein-Barr virus in the previous month. 10. Patients with an active viral infection at screening with: Hepatitis B Virus, Hepatitis C Virus, detectable virus charge of HIV. 11. Intolerance to dexamethasone. 12. History of a bone marrow stem cell disorder. 13. Active or prior malignancy except adequately treated (ie, complete surgical excision with negative margins) basal cell carcinoma. 14.
