Ultra-rare inherited bleeding disorders (BDs) present important challenges for generating a strong evidence foundation for optimal diagnosis and management. Without disorder-appropriate treatment, affected individuals potentially face life-threatening bleeding, delayed diagnosis, suboptimal management of invasive procedures, psychosocial distress, pain, and decreased quality-of-life.
The National Hemophilia Foundation (NHF) and the American Thrombosis and Hemostasis Network identified the priorities of people with inherited BDs and their caregivers, through extensive inclusive community consultations, to inform a blueprint for future decades of research. Multidisciplinary expert Working Group (WG) 3 distilled highly feasible transformative ultra-rare inherited BD research opportunities from the community-identified priorities.
WG3 identified three focus areas with the potential to advance the needs of all people with ultra-rare inherited BDs and scored the feasibility, impact, and risk of priority initiatives, including 13 in systems biology and mechanistic science; 2 in clinical research, data collection, and research infrastructure; and 5 in the regulatory process for novel therapeutics and required data collection.
Centralization and expansion of expertise and resources, flexible innovative research and regulatory approaches, and inclusion of all people with ultra-rare inherited BDs and their health care professionals will be essential to capitalize on the opportunities outlined herein.
超罕见遗传性出血性疾病(BD)在为优化诊断和管理提供强有力的证据基础方面带来了重大挑战。如果没有适当的疾病治疗,受影响的个体可能面临危及生命的出血、延迟诊断、侵入性手术管理不当、心理社会困扰、疼痛和生活质量下降。
国家血友病基金会(NHF)和美国血栓与止血网络通过广泛的包容性社区咨询,确定了遗传性 BD 患者及其护理人员的优先事项,为未来几十年的研究制定了蓝图。多学科专家工作组(WG)3 从社区确定的优先事项中提炼出具有变革性的超罕见遗传性 BD 研究机会。
WG3 确定了三个具有潜力的重点领域,可以满足所有超罕见遗传性 BD 患者的需求,并对优先计划的可行性、影响和风险进行了评分,其中包括 13 项系统生物学和机制科学;2 项临床研究、数据收集和研究基础设施;以及 5 项新型治疗药物的监管程序和所需的数据收集。
集中和扩大专业知识和资源、灵活创新的研究和监管方法,以及纳入所有超罕见遗传性 BD 患者及其医疗保健专业人员,将是利用本文所述机会的关键。
