Dynamics of the Anti-factor VIII Antibody Signature During Treatment With Emicizumab

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

no interventions: no intervention, only 3 different patients groups

Study summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the changes of antibodies and inhibitors against the coagulation factor VIII in patients with severe hemophilia A receiving emicizumab therapy. No additional visits or procedures are planned. Patients in this study will continue to receive their routine care and analysis will be done from left over samples from routine visits.

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• FVIII inhibitor development in inhibitor negative subjects — 3 years
  Rate of FVIII inhibitor development during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor negative subjects. Assessed with Bethesda Assay (BU/ml). Number of patients who develop an FVIII inhibitor within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor negative at start of the study.
• FVIII antibody development in inhibitor negative subjects — 3 years
  Rate of FVIII antibody development during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor negative subjects. FVIII anti drug antibody (ADA) is assessed by FVIII specific ELISA (OD=Optical Density). Number of patients who develop an FVIII antibody (ADA) within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor negative at start of the study.
• FVIII inhibitor disappearance in inhibitor positive subjects — 3 years
  Rate of FVIII inhibitor disappearance during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor positive subjects. Assessed with Bethesda Assay (BU/ml). Number of patients who loose an FVIII inhibitor within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor positive at start of the study.
• FVIII antibody disappearance in inhibitor positive subjects — 3 years
  Rate of FVIII antibody disappearance during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor positive subjects. FVIII anti drug antibody (ADA) is assessed by FVIII specific ELISA (OD=Optical Density). Number of patients who develop an FVIII antibody within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor positive at start of the study.
