Filter by:The study start on January 18, 2017. The Severe(FⅧ<1%) and moderate hemophilia A (FⅧ1%～5%)children with high titer inhibitor(historical peak inhibitor titer≥5BU ) combining with poor ITI risk(s) were enrolled. The low-dose ITI was alone or combined with immunosuppression.
The WBDR is an international observational disease registry of patients with hemophilia. It will provide a platform for a network of hemophilia treatment centres (HTCs) around the world to collect uniform and standardized patient data and guide clinical practice. With informed consent from the patient, the WBDR stores anonymous data about the person's disease, such as hemophilia type and severity, symptoms, and treatment.
Severe haemophilia A and B (SHA, SHB) are X - linked inherited bleeding disorders, characterised by factor VIII and IX levels of <1 IU/dL respectively. The mainstay of treatment in SHA and SHB is replacement therapy with intravenous infusions of factor VIII and IX. However, there is significant variability in the bleeding phenotype within severe haemophiliacs with some presenting with minimal bleeding episodes even on less intensive treatment regimens. A significant contributor to inter-individual variability in the bleeding phenotype is the coagulation phenotype, but there are no established assays in routine clinical practice that can be used to quantify this. This study aims to study novel assays and characterise the observed phenotypic heterogeneity.
This is a randomized, prospective, multicenter study to examine whether or not the current recommended factor dosing strategy - i.e., dosing by actual body weight - in overweight and obese patients with Hemophilia A may deliver excessive clotting factor to achieve the desired result of bleeding prevention and cessation. This study also examines ways to prevent delivering excessive factor by using a patient's ideal body weight as a new dosing strategy compared to the current dosing strategy. The hypothesis being tested is that factor dosing based on ideal body weight will result in protective factor levels.
Individuals with mild hemophilia A (MHA) bleed infrequently but can in the setting of trauma which often is when participating in sports/exercise. Although both exercise and DDAVP (desmopressin) can raise Factor 8/Von Willebrand Factor (FVIII/VWF levels), it is not clear whether the pathophysiological mechanism is the same. Consequently it is not known if DDAVP and exercise would have additive effects in raising FVIII:C and VWF levels or if one would one negate the effect of the other. The aim of this 2 center (Sickkids and Columbus, Ohio), prospective, cross-over design study is to compare the impact of exercise vs. DDAVP on hemostasis in patients with MHA and also to investigate the impact of sequentially administering these interventions on their hemostatic indices.
The GO-8 study focuses on assessing safety and efficacy of gene therapy for patients with severe haemophilia A
In the past, due to economic and medical resource constraints, the hemophilia comprehensive care in China was suboptimal. The BCH data of both retrospective and prospective studies reveals that for 4-6y and 6-9y patients with severe hemophilia respectively: 45% and 82% of the patients have suffered from joint bleeding, with mean AJBR of 4.18 and 4.95; and 24.2% and 33.3% of them with AJBR>10 times, led to arthropathies and made their quality of life be heavy affected. Now, with the development of economy and medical science in China, prophylaxis regimens have been initiated in more and more children with hemophilia. Considering the difference between prophylaxis regimens, the frequency of joint bleeding was reduced significantly, the quality of life of hemophilia kids improved. An assessment scoring system for the appropriate validation of individualized prophylaxis treatment regimens are urgently needed. Before, the most important assessed indication for hemophilia prophylaxis was the frequency of joint bleeding. But increasing evidences are showing that there is a discrepancy between real joint damage and joint bleeding frequency. The single indicator of joint bleeding frequency is not sufficient to evaluate the joint status of hemophilia children. Under the World Health Organization's ICF guidelines, the assessment scoring system for selecting prophylaxis for children with hemophilia should include the tools currently available for assessment of structure/function of the joint, patient activities and patient participation in hemophilia healthcare. According to ICF of WHO, the most common bleeding parts are elbows, knees and ankles, therefore the assessment of children with hemophilia should include the evaluation of the structure, the function of these 6 Index joints, the capacity of activities and the capacity of participation of children. These will constitute a comprehensive hemophilia evaluation system. In China, exploration of the optimal and individualized prophylaxis regimen is urgent, and the comprehensive evaluation system should include joint structure and function, body's activities and individual participation, thus may be more appropriate for the individualized prophylaxis for Chinese children with hemophilia.
Rationale: Haemophilia is a rare disease; to improve knowledge international collaboration is needed. Well-defined clinical data will be collected from complete cohorts in order to prevent selection bias. Objective: To collect data on bleeding during neonatal period, endogenous (genetic) and exogenous (treatment-related) determinants of inhibitor development and long term outcome.
Severe haemophilia A and B (SHA, SHB) are inherited bleeding disorders affecting male patients and are characterised by low levels of circulating clotting factors VIII and IX respectively. Clinically low levels present with multiple recurrent bleeds into joints and muscle from the first couple of years of life. In addition patients may present with spontaneous and potentially fatal bleeding into any organ. The mainstay of treatment is replacement with the missing factor in the form of intravenous injections of factor VIII and IX. Clotting factors can be given to treat a bleed or can be given to prevent a bleed, and the latter is termed prophylaxis. Regular prophylaxis is the current standard of care and aims to decrease spontaneous bleeding events and resulting joint damage, and this requires patients to self-infuse factor into their veins two to four times week. Patient's compliance with prescribed regimen and recommendations has a significant influence on outcomes. Advances in biomolecular and protein engineering have extended the duration of the effect of clotting factor VIII and IX through multiple mechanisms. This extension of the duration of the effect presents the clinician and patients with opportunities to tailor the treatment to their particular needs, circumstances and body other characteristics. It has been suggested that decreasing the frequency of infusions will improve adherence and thus contribute to improved outcomes. In rare disorders, it is an accepted fact that post-marketing studies are crucial to understand the generalisability of the efficacy and safety outcomes and identify any new safety and efficacy concerns in relation to specific population group. The investigators propose the development of a registry for systematic collection of information with the dual aim of analysing the relationship between patient and treatment characteristics, and outcomes, and simultaneously identify areas for practice development that can improve the overall quality of life experienced by the haemophilia patient community.
