Popis: | Introduction/Aim Eptacog beta is a recombinant activated human factor VII approved to treat and control bleeding in haemophilia A and B patients with inhibitors. Emicizumab is a factor VIIIa mimetic antibody approved for prophylactic treatment of haemophilia A with and without inhibitors (HAI and HA, respectively). Inhibitor patients treated with emicizumab should expect breakthrough bleeding that requires bypassing agent treatment to restore haemostasis. The aim of this study is to quantify the in vitro thrombin generation induced by the addition of eptacog beta to HAI and HA plasma containing emicizumab. Methods Thrombin generation assays were performed using HAI and HA plasma. Thrombin generation parameters were examined using a fixed effects model with inhibitor titre, eptacog beta concentration and emicizumab concentration as main effects, and eptacog beta concentration with inhibitor and emicizumab concentration with inhibitor as interaction effects. Results A significant increase in peak thrombin, ETP and velocity was observed when combinations of eptacog beta (0, 1, 2 or 5 µg/ml) and emicizumab (0, 50 or 100 µg/ml) were evaluated in HA and HAI plasma; the effect remained below that observed in Normal Plasma (NP). A small shortening of lag time below that of NP was observed. Conclusions Eptacog beta and emicizumab induced thrombin generation in haemophilia A plasma (with and without inhibitors) with the thrombin generation parameters remaining below those of normal plasma. These data provide in vitro proof of concept supporting the concept of use of eptacog beta for the treatment and control of breakthrough bleeding in patients on emicizumab prophylaxis. |
