Molecular analysis in a patient with severe factor VII deficiency and an inhibitor: report of a novel mutation (S103G)

Abstract: Congenital factor VII (FVII) deficiency is an autosomal recessive bleeding disorder with variable phenotypic correlation between FVII activity and bleeding risk. We report a novel mutation of the FVII gene that creates the amino acid change Ser 103 to Gly, which resulted in severe FVII deficiency with reduced FVII antigen. This mutation in the heterozygous form was also present in a mildly affected, unrelated patient. We also report on the natural history of an FVII inhibitor in the patient with severe FVII de… Show more

“…The structural differences between the endogenous and therapeutic proteins increase the risk of immune complications. Currently, little is known about the prevalence of antibodies against FVIIa in FVII-deficient patients undergoing treatment with rFVIIa and there are only a few cases published in the literature [3][4][5][6][7]. Interestingly, in the majority of these cases, the presence of an inhibitor did not apparently impair the therapeutic efficacy of rFVIIa therapy, dissimilar to the case described here.…”

“…25,30,38,39 The one patient in this series with an inhibitor developed it before the initiation of prophylaxis. 25 Nevertheless, prophylaxis with rFVIIa was started because of persisting, severe bleeding episodes and proved to be very effective in preventing recurrent central nervous system hemorrhages.…”

“…Anecdotal reports of inhibitors to FVII have been previously published in the literature, including reports from members of our group (Nicolaisen et al, 1996;Mariani et al, 1999;Ingerslev et al, 2005;Pruthi et al, 2007, Batorova et al, 2007Tokgoz et al, 2012). Here, we report a prospective study in which screening for FVII antibodies was performed according to a specific protocol within the frame of the Seven Treatment Evaluation Registry (STER), which also collected data on the treatment of spontaneous bleeding episodes, surgical interventions and prophylaxis in patients with congenital FVII deficiency over an 8-year period (Mariani et al, 2011;Mariani et al, 2012b;Mariani et al, 2013;Napolitano et al, 2013).…”
