Innowacyjna metoda prowadzenia ITI za pomocą preparatu czynnika VIII z frakcją Fc u pacjentów z hemofilią A z obecnością inhibitora czynnika VIII – przegląd literaturowy

Abstract

Eradication of factor VIII inhibitors using Immune tolerance induction (ITI) treatment is the standard of care for severe haemophilia A patients presenting with factor VIII inhibitors, but is not always effective. A description of the potential immunological tolerance effect of the IgG Fc domain of recombinant factor VIII Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc), as well as published experience with rFVIIIFc for ITI in patients with severe haemophilia A and high-titre inhibitors. Review of published literature describing cases of ITI with rFVIIIFc in patients with severe haemophilia A and high-titre inhibitors between November 2015 and June 2018. Four publications has been found. Of 56 patients with haemophilia A who presented with FVIII inhibitors, 28 achieved a negative Bethesda titre (< 0.6) after ITI treatment using rFVIIIFc. Additional patients continued on rFVIIIFc ITI at the time of publication, while a few were reported to have switched to bypass therapy alone or other factors . For those still undergoing ITI, longer follow-up is needed to determine final outcomes. No adverse events were reported. Based on literature review, preliminary evidence of FVIIIFc use in high risk, first-time ITI suggests rapid time to tolerization. For rescue ITI, rFVIIIFc showed therapeutic benefit in some patients who previously failed ITI. These findings give hope but highlight the need for further evaluation in ongoing clinical trials.
