Bleed treatment with eptacog beta (rFVIIa) results in a low incidence of rebleeding in adult and adolescent patients with haemophilia A or B with inhibitors.

Introduction: Eptacog beta is a novel human recombinant FVIIa approved for use in the United States, European Union, United Kingdom and Mexico for the treatment and control of bleeding in patients with haemophilia A or B with inhibitors (≥12 years). It is also indicated for perioperative care in the same patient population in Europe and the United Kingdom.

Aim: To assess the incidence of rebleeding and review treatment outcomes in subjects with haemophilia with inhibitors enrolled in the phase 3 PERSEPT 1 clinical trial.

Contrasting Approaches in the Implementation of GRADE Methodology in Guidelines for Haemophilia and Von Willebrand Disease.

Introduction: The 2024 ISTH clinical practice guideline (CPG) for treatment of congenital haemophilia, the NBDF-McMaster Guideline on Care Models for Haemophilia Management, and ASH ISTH NBDF WFH guidelines on the diagnosis and management of VWD all utilised GRADE methodology.

Aim: Discuss missed opportunities and the methodological approach of the ISTH Guideline in contrast to how GRADE was previously applied in rare diseases.

Methods: Critically analyse the methodology of each guideline along with best practices in the use of GRADE.

International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis Clinical Practice Guideline for Treatment of Congenital Haemophilia-A Critical Appraisal.

Introduction: Evidence-based clinical practice guidelines drive optimal patient care and facilitate access to high-quality treatment. Creating guidelines for rare diseases such as haemophilia, where evidence does not often come from randomized controlled trials but from non-randomized and well-designed observational studies and real-world data, is challenging. The methodology used for assessing available evidence should consider this critical fact.

Effectiveness of Damoctocog Alfa Pegol to Treat Patients With Hemophilia A Enrolled in the ATHNdataset.

Objectives: Health information for 17 109 people living with hemophilia A (PLwHA) is contained within the ATHNdataset. We aimed to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of damoctocog alfa pegol (BAY 94-9027, Jivi®) for hemophilia A.

Methods: The ATHNdataset was queried for PLwHA receiving damoctocog alfa pegol between January 1, 2010 and April 30, 2022.
