Brief summary

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of multiple doses of Staphylococcal protein A (PRTX-100) in adult patients with Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura (ITP). The pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and pharmacodynamics will also be studied. Patients will be enrolled into 1 of 3 dose groups and receive 4 weekly IV doses of PRTX-100. A Safety Monitoring Committee will review safety data through Day 28 for the first 5 patients in a dose group before escalation to the next higher dose level. Patients will be followed for 8 weeks after dosing for safety, PK, immunogenicity and effect on platelet count(pharmacodynamics).

Interventions

4 weekly IV (in the vein) doses of 1 of the 3 following PRTX-100 dose levels: * Cohort 1: 0.075 mcg/kg * Cohort 2: 0.15 mcg/kg * Cohort 3: 0.30 mcg/kg
