Development of inhibitors to human FVIII (hFVIII) significantly complicates the control of bleeding events in patients with haemophilia A.
This prospective, multicentre, open-label, non-comparative, Phase II study evaluated the haemostatic activity of a recombinant B-domain-deleted porcine FVIII (r-pFVIII), in the treatment of non-life/non-limb-threatening bleeding in individuals with haemophilia A and FVIII inhibitors.
Acute bleeding episodes in patients with pFVIII inhibitor titres <0.8 BU mL were treated with 50 U kg body weight r-pFVIII. Those with pFVIII inhibitor titres of >0.8 BU mL received an initial calculated r-pFVIII loading dose followed by 50 U kg treatment dose. Treatment continued at 6-hourly intervals until bleeding was determined, controlled or till a maximum of eight doses was reached.
All 25 bleeding episodes in nine patients (mean age: 23.7 years; range: 14-34 years) were controlled successfully with eight or fewer injections of r-pFVIII. The median time from bleeding onset to the administration of r-pFVIII was 5.7 h (range: 1.5-20.0 h). Twenty of the bleeding episodes (80%) were controlled with one treatment dose of r-pFVIII (with or without a loading dose, median dose: 200.8 U kg ; range: 50-576 U kg ) regardless of pFVIII level. r-pFVIII was well tolerated and no treatment-emergent serious adverse events were considered by the investigator to be related to r-pFVIII administration.
The results suggest that FVIII replacement therapy with r-pFVIII could be a viable alternative to bypassing agents for the treatment of bleeding episodes in individuals with haemophilia A and FVIII inhibitors.
人FVIII(hFVIII)抑制剂的出现显著增加了A型血友病患者出血事件控制的复杂性。
这项前瞻性、多中心、开放标签、非对照的II期研究评估了重组猪B结构域缺失FVIII(r-pFVIII)在治疗有FVIII抑制剂的A型血友病患者非危及生命/肢体的出血时的止血活性。
FVIII抑制剂滴度<0.8 BU/mL的患者急性出血发作,用50 U/kg体重的r-pFVIII治疗。FVIII抑制剂滴度>0.8 BU/mL的患者先给予初始计算的r-pFVIII负荷剂量,然后给予50 U/kg的治疗剂量。每6小时给药一次,持续治疗直至出血得到确定、控制或最多达到8剂。
9例患者(平均年龄:23.7岁;范围:14 - 34岁)的所有25次出血发作均通过8次或更少次数的r-pFVIII注射成功控制。从出血开始到给予r-pFVIII的中位时间为5.7小时(范围:1.5 - 20.0小时)。无论FVIII水平如何,20次出血发作(80%)通过一剂r-pFVIII治疗(有或无负荷剂量,中位剂量:200.8 U/kg;范围:50 - 576 U/kg)得到控制。r-pFVIII耐受性良好,研究者认为没有治疗中出现的严重不良事件与r-pFVIII给药有关。
结果表明,对于有FVIII抑制剂的A型血友病患者出血发作的治疗,用r-pFVIII进行FVIII替代治疗可能是旁路制剂的一种可行替代方案。
