ORPHEE: A Real-World Study on rIX-FP Prophylaxis Use in Adolescent/Adult Patients With Hemophilia B.

Objectives: To assess the real-world efficacy and safety of recombinant factor IX albumin fusion protein (rIX-FP) in patients with hemophilia B (HB) in France.

Methods: Data on dosing frequency, weekly consumption, and bleeds before-and-after switching to rIX-FP, were collected from December 2021 to February 2024. Annualized (spontaneous) bleeding rates [A(s)BRs] were calculated only in patients on prophylaxis with a follow-up ≥ 6 months.

Efficacy and safety of recombinant activated factor VII in Glanzmann thrombasthenia: A systematic literature review.

Background: Platelet transfusion is considered the standard treatment for preventing or controlling severe haemorrhage in Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT). However, platelet transfusion can have detrimental effects, including the production of anti-GPIIb/IIIa isoantibodies or anti-HLA antibodies (Ab) and platelet transfusion refractoriness. Recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) has been proposed as an alternative treatment to platelet transfusion.

[Acquired haemophilia: Update in 2024].

Acquired hemophilia A (AHA) is a rare autoimmune disorder due to autoantibodies against factor VIII, with a high mortality risk. It should be suspected in subjects with abnormal bleedings, especially subcutaneous bleed associated with prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). AHA is often idiopathic but is associated with autoimmune diseases, malignancies, pregnancy and postpartum period or drugs.

Outcomes and outcome measures.

Introduction: Advances in haemophilia treatment have resulted in a near-normal life expectancy, lower burden of bleeding and treatment, and improved quality of life in high-income countries. Bleeding rate is approaching zero and novel parameters should be evaluated to assess the efficacy of treatment not only from the clinical point of view by using new methodologies (e.g.

Emicizumab use in females with moderate or mild hemophilia A without factor VIII inhibitors who warrant prophylaxis.

Background: Hemophilia A (HA) is predominantly associated with males due to X-linked inheritance. Males and females with HA have shared unmet medical needs, highlighting the necessity for comprehensive care irrespective of sex.

Objectives: This analysis investigated the efficacy and safety of emicizumab prophylaxis in 3 females with HA.

Acquired haemophilia A in paediatric patients: A retrospective French cohort of eight cases.

Acquired haemophilia A (AHA) is a rare haemorrhagic disease characterised by new-onset haemorrhagic symptoms associated with a dramatic decrease in factor VIII levels and an anti-factor VIII neutralising autoantibody concentration >0.6 Bethesda units. Elderly people are often affected, whereas children are rarely affected; the paediatric incidence reported in the literature is about 0.

Dilemmas on emicizumab in children with haemophilia A: A survey of strategies from PedNet centres.

Introduction: Haemophilia A care has changed with the introduction of emicizumab. Experience on the youngest children is still scarce and clinical practice varies between haemophilia treatment centres.

Aim: We aimed to assess the current clinical practice on emicizumab prophylaxis within PedNet, a collaborative research platform for paediatricians treating children with haemophilia.

Phase 3 Trial of Concizumab in Hemophilia with Inhibitors.

Background: Concizumab is an anti-tissue factor pathway inhibitor monoclonal antibody designed to achieve hemostasis in all hemophilia types, with subcutaneous administration. A previous trial of concizumab (explorer4) established proof of concept in patients with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors.

Methods: We conducted the explorer7 trial to assess the safety and efficacy of concizumab in patients with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors.

Determinants of adherence and consequences of the transition from adolescence to adulthood among young people with severe haemophilia (TRANSHEMO): A multicentric French national observational cross-sectional study based on the FranceCoag registry.

Introduction: It is necessary to gain insights into adherence to healthcare in people with severe haemophilia (PwSH), especially during the transition from paediatric to adult care, which is an important phase in lives of young people with childhood chronic disease. This adherence can be considered as a marker of successful transition.

Objectives: The main objective of the quantitative phase of the TRANSHEMO project was to compare the adherence to healthcare between adolescents and young adults (YAs) with severe haemophilia.

Emergency management of patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia: consensus recommendations from the French reference center for inherited platelet disorders.

Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) is a genetic bleeding disorder characterised by severely reduced/absent platelet aggregation in response to multiple physiological agonists. The severity of bleeding in GT varies markedly, as does the emergency situations and complications encountered in patients. A number of emergency situations may occur in the context of GT, including spontaneous or provoked bleeding, such as surgery or childbirth.

A focus on dominant negative variants in a series of 170 heterozygous FXI-deficient patients.

Introduction: Dominant-negative effects have been described for 10 F11 variants in the literature.

Aim: The current study aimed at identifying putative dominant-negative F11 variants.

Material And Methods: This research consisted in a retrospective analysis of routine laboratory data.

A French Real-World Evidence Study Evaluating the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetic Parameters of rVIII-SingleChain in Patients with Hemophilia A Receiving Prophylaxis.

Background:  rVIII-SingleChain is a recombinant factor VIII (FVIII) with increased binding affinity to von Willebrand factor compared with other FVIII products. rVIII-SingleChain is indicated for the treatment and prevention of bleeding episodes in patients with hemophilia A.

Objectives:  To collect real-world evidence data from patients treated with rVIII-SingleChain to confirm the efficacy and safety established in the clinical trial program and carry out a population pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis.

Emicizumab in people with moderate or mild haemophilia A (HAVEN 6): a multicentre, open-label, single-arm, phase 3 study.

Background: Clinical trial data are scarce for the use of prophylaxis in people with non-severe haemophilia A. The HAVEN 6 study aims to assess safety and efficacy of emicizumab prophylaxis in people with non-severe haemophilia A without factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitors.

Methods: HAVEN 6 is a multicentre, open-label, single-arm, phase 3 study taking place in 22 specialty clinics and hospitals in Europe, North America, and South Africa.

[Young girls and women with congenital bleeding disorders - The challenges of early diagnosis].

Diagnosis of young girls and women with congenital bleeding disorders (CBD) is often delayed. The lack of knowledge of the challenges faced during menstrual cycles and childbirth contribute to this situation. Therefore, a better understanding and identification of the barriers to diagnosis become a useful tool for implementing the steps that promote equitable access and appropriate care.

Occupational integration of adults with severe haemophilia (INTHEMO): A study based on the FranceCoag registry.

Introduction: Health of people with severe haemophilia (PwSH) improves thanks to the advancements in haemophilia care, giving them more opportunities in occupational integration. However, there is little literature on the occupational integration of PwSH.

Objectives: The main objective of our study was to assess the occupational integration of PwSH and to compare it with that of the general population.

Effectiveness of long-term prophylaxis using pdFVIII/VWF concentrate in patients with inherited von Willebrand disease.

Background: Patients with symptomatic von Willebrand disease (VWD) should be offered long-term prophylaxis (LTP) to prevent recurrent bleedings. Our objective was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Voncento®, a plasma-derived FVIII/VWF concentrate (ratio 1:2.4), administrated in LTP.
