Abstract
Objective To explore the causal association between coagulation function, including von Willebrand factor (vWF), a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 (ADAMTS13), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), coagulation factor Ⅷ (FⅧ), coagulation factor Ⅺ (FⅪ), coagulation factor Ⅶ (FⅦ), coagulation factor Ⅹ (FⅩ), endogenous thrombin potential (ETP), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), protein C, and plasmin, and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) using two-sample two-way Mendelian randomization (MR), and to provide genetic evidence for the association between coagulation function and the pathogenesis of GDM. Methods The IEU OpenGWAS database was accessed using the R package TwoSampleMR (v 0.5.6) to obtain the statistical data of the genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary of GDM. MR analysis of the causal association between 11 coagulation function and GDM was performed by the inverse-variance weighted method (IVW), the MR-Egger method, and the weighted median method (WM). Results In this study, the GWAS summary statistics of GDM (covering 5 687 cases and 117 892 controls) were used for MR analysis. It was found that there was a causal relationship between the predicted plasma FⅧ level and the risk for GDM (IVW: [odds ratio, OR]=0.28, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.10-0.75, P<0.001; WM: OR=0.30, 95% CI: 0.09-0.98, P<0.001). There was no causal relationship between other coagulation function and the risk for GDM (P>0.05). Conclusion There is a significant causal relationship between the plasma FⅧ level and the risk for GDM. This finding highlights the complex interaction between coagulation function and glucose metabolism during pregnancy, but further research on this finding is warranted.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Inhibitor development is the most severe complication of hemophilia A (HA) care and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to use a novel immunoglobulin G epitope mapping method to explore the factor VIII (FVIII)-specific epitope profile in the SIPPET cohort population and to develop an epitope mapping-based inhibitor prediction model. The population consisted of 122 previously untreated patients with severe HA who were followed up for 50 days of exposure to FVIII or 3 years, whichever occurred first. Sampling was performed before FVIII treatment and at the end of the follow-up. The outcome was inhibitor development. The FVIII epitope repertoire was assessed by means of a novel random peptide phage-display assay. A least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model and a random forest model were fitted on posttreatment sample data and validated in pretreatment sample data. The predictive performance of these models was assessed by the C-statistic and a calibration plot. We identified 27 775 peptides putatively directed against FVIII, which were used as input for the statistical models. The C-statistic of the LASSO and random forest models were good at 0.78 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.69-0.86) and 0.80 (95% CI, 0.72-0.89). Model calibration of both models was moderately good. Two statistical models, developed on data from a novel random peptide phage display assay, were used to predict inhibitor development before exposure to exogenous FVIII. These models can be used to set up diagnostic tests that predict the risk of inhibitor development before starting treatment with FVIII.

High levels of anti-factor VIII immunoglobulin G4 and immunoglobulin G total are associated with immune tolerance induction failure in people with congenital hemophilia A and high-responding inhibitors. Res Pract Thromb Haemost 2024; 8:102436. [PMID: 38840663 PMCID: PMC11152708 DOI: 10.1016/j.rpth.2024.102436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Immune tolerance induction (ITI) is the treatment of choice to eradicate neutralizing anti-factor (F)VIII alloantibodies (inhibitors) in people with inherited hemophilia A. However, it is not successful in 10% to 40% of the cases. The biological mechanisms and biomarkers associated with ITI outcome are largely unknown. Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the association of plasma cytokines (interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor, interleukin [IL]-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-17A), chemokines (IL-8/CXCL8, RANTES/CCL5, MIG/CXCL9, MCP-1/CCL2, and IP-10/CXCL10), and anti-FVIII immunoglobulin (Ig) G total, IgG1, and IgG4 with ITI outcome. Methods In this cross-sectional analysis of the Brazilian Immune Tolerance Study, we assessed plasma levels of anti-FVIII IgGs using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with plasma-derived FVIII and recombinant FVIII as target antigens, immobilized in microplates. Results We assayed 98 plasma samples of moderately severe and severe (FVIII activity, <2%) people with hemophilia A after completion of a first ITI course. Levels of anti-recombinant FVIII IgG total and IgG4 were higher in people with hemophilia A who failed ITI (IgG total optical density [OD], 0.37; IQR, 0.15-0.73; IgG4 OD, 2.19; IQR, 0.80-2.52) than in those who had partial (IgG total OD, 0.03; IQR, 0.00-0.14; IgG4 OD, 0.39; IQR, 0.09-1.11; P < .0001 for both) or complete success (IgG total OD, 0.04; IQR, 0.00-0.07; IgG4 OD, 0.07; IQR, 0.06-0.40; P < .0001 for both). Plasma cytokines, chemokines, and anti-FVIII IgG1 were not associated with ITI outcome. Conclusion Our results show that high levels of plasma anti-FVIII IgG4 and IgG total are associated with ITI failure.

Res Pract Thromb Haemost 2023; 7:102248.

Abstract
Background Factor IX inhibitor formation is the most serious complication of replacement therapy for the bleeding disorder hemophilia B, exacerbated by severe allergic reactions occurring in up to 60% of patients with inhibitors. Low success rates of immune tolerance induction therapy in hemophilia B necessitate the search for novel immune tolerance therapies. Skin-associated lymphoid tissues have been successfully targeted in allergen-specific immunotherapy. Objectives We aimed to develop a prophylactic immune tolerance protocol based on intradermal administration of FIX that would prevent inhibitor formation and/or anaphylaxis in response to replacement therapy. Methods We measured FIX inhibitor, anti-FIX immunoglobulin G1, and immunoglobulin E titers using the Bethesda assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay after 4 weeks of twice-weekly intradermal FIX or FIX-Fc administration followed by 5 to 6 weeks of weekly systemic FIX injections in C3H/HeJ hemophilia B mice. We also measured skin antigen-presenting, follicular helper T, and germinal center B cell frequencies in skin-draining lymph nodes after a single or repeat intradermal FIX administration. Results Intradermal administration enhanced FIX inhibitor formation in response to systemic administration. We further found that intradermal administration alone triggers inhibitor formation, even at a low dose of 0.4 IU/kg, which is 100-fold lower than the intravenous dose of 40 IU/kg typically required to induce inhibitor development in hemophilia B mice. Also, intradermal administration triggered germinal center formation in skin-draining lymph nodes and sensitized mice to systemic administration. Factor IX-Fc fusion protein did not modulate inhibitor formation. Conclusion Intradermal FIX administration is highly immunogenic, suggesting that the skin compartment is not amenable to immune tolerance induction or therapeutic delivery of clotting factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Management of peri-operative bleeding is complex and involves multiple assessment tools and strategies to ensure optimal patient care with the goal of reducing morbidity and mortality. These updated guidelines from the European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC) aim to provide an evidence-based set of recommendations for healthcare professionals to help ensure improved clinical management. DESIGN A systematic literature search from 2015 to 2021 of several electronic databases was performed without language restrictions. Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) was used to assess the methodological quality of the included studies and to formulate recommendations. A Delphi methodology was used to prepare a clinical practice guideline. RESULTS These searches identified 137 999 articles. All articles were assessed, and the existing 2017 guidelines were revised to incorporate new evidence. Sixteen recommendations derived from the systematic literature search, and four clinical guidances retained from previous ESAIC guidelines were formulated. Using the Delphi process on 253 sentences of guidance, strong consensus (>90% agreement) was achieved in 97% and consensus (75 to 90% agreement) in 3%. DISCUSSION Peri-operative bleeding management encompasses the patient's journey from the pre-operative state through the postoperative period. Along this journey, many features of the patient's pre-operative coagulation status, underlying comorbidities, general health and the procedures that they are undergoing need to be taken into account. Due to the many important aspects in peri-operative nontrauma bleeding management, guidance as to how best approach and treat each individual patient are key. Understanding which therapeutic approaches are most valuable at each timepoint can only enhance patient care, ensuring the best outcomes by reducing blood loss and, therefore, overall morbidity and mortality. CONCLUSION All healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients at risk for surgical bleeding should be aware of the current therapeutic options and approaches that are available to them. These guidelines aim to provide specific guidance for bleeding management in a variety of clinical situations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Decades of research have transformed hemophilia from severely limiting children's lives to a manageable disorder compatible with a full, active life, for many in high-income countries. The direction of future research will determine whether exciting developments truly advance health equity for all people with hemophilia (PWH). National Hemophilia Foundation (NHF) and American Thrombosis and Hemostasis Network conducted extensive inclusive all-stakeholder consultations to identify the priorities of people with inherited bleeding disorders and those who care for them. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Working group (WG) 1 of the NHF State of the Science Research Summit distilled the community-identified priorities for hemophilia A and B into concrete research questions and scored their feasibility, impact, and risk. RESULTS WG1 defined 63 top priority research questions concerning arthropathy/pain/bone health, inhibitors, diagnostics, gene therapy, the pediatric to adult transition of care, disparities faced by the community, and cardiovascular disease. This research has the potential to empower PWH to thrive despite lifelong comorbidities and achieve new standards of wellbeing, including psychosocial. CONCLUSIONS Collaborative research and care delivery will be key to capitalizing on current and horizon treatments and harnessing technical advances to improve diagnostics and testing, to advance health equity for all PWH.

Abstract
The treatment of hemophilia A has progressed amazingly in recent years. Emicizumab, a bispecific-humanized monoclonal antibody, is able to improve coagulation by bridging activated factor IX and factor X. Emicizumab is administered subcutaneously and much less often compared to factor VIII products. It has low immunogenicity, does not require dose adjustment, and can be administered regardless of the presence of factor VIII inhibitors. Thrombin generation assays but not factor VIII activity are indicated to guide and monitor the treatment. Emicizumab has enabled the conversion of patients with severe forms into patients with milder forms of hemophilia A. It has reduced the number of bleeding episodes compared to both on-demand and prophylactic substitution therapy and has an excellent safety profile. Gene therapy can elevate factor VIII plasma levels for many years after a single treatment course, could offer long-term protection from bleeding episodes, and minimize or eliminate the need for substitutive treatment with factor VIII concentrates. Gene therapy can provoke an immune response, manifested by an increase in common liver enzymes, that require immunotherapy. Long term monitoring is necessary to identify possible adverse effects. Future objectives are: the development of an ideal viral vector, the possibility of its re-administration, the use of gene therapy in hemophiliac children, and determining whether it can be successfully used to induce immune tolerance to factor VIII ceteri paribus. The future will determine the place of each type of treatment and group of patients for which it is indicated.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The National Hemophilia Foundation State of the Science Research Summit initiative sought to unify research efforts in the US inherited bleeding disorders (BDs) community around key topics of importance to people living with inherited BDs, the lived experience experts. AREAS COVERED This community-led and -informed project focused on six broad areas - hemophilia A or B; von Willebrand Disease (VWD), platelet dysfunctions and other mucocutaneous inherited BDs; ultra-rare inherited BDs; the unique challenges of people with the potential to menstruate with inherited BDs; diversity, equity and inclusion, health services research, and implementation science; and facilitating research in the inherited BD community through designing an optimizied research infrastructure, enabling resources and funding, and furthering workforce capabilities required to execute the research priorities. EXPERT OPINION The work summarized here, and in the accompanying supplement manuscripts , has implications not only for the US population but for people globally who have inherited BDs. The information is equally relevant to people living with hemophilia, VWD, the spectrum of inherited platelet disorders, ultra-rare factor deficiencies, and all other inherited BDs as it is to the health care providers and researchers focused on the care and treatment of inherited BDs in the US and globally.

Pharmacovigilance, the science and practice of monitoring the effects of medicinals and their safety, is the responsibility of all stakeholders involved in the development, manufacture, regulation, distribution, prescription, and use of drugs and devices. The patient is the stakeholder most impacted by and the greatest source of information on safety issues. It is rare, however, for the patient to take a central role and exert leadership in the design and execution of pharmacovigilance. Patient organizations in the inherited bleeding disorders community are among the most established and empowered, particularly in the rare disorders. In this review, two of the largest bleeding disorders patient organizations, Hemophilia Federation of America (HFA) and National Hemophilia Foundation (NHF), offer insights into the priority actions required of all stakeholders to improve pharmacovigilance. The recent and ongoing increase in incidents raising safety concerns and a therapeutic landscape on the cusp of unprecedented expansion heighten the urgency of a recommitment to the primacy of patient safety and well-being in drug development and distribution. Plain Language Summary Patients at the center of product safety Every medical device and therapeutic product has potential benefits and harms. The pharmaceutical and biomedical companies that develop them must demonstrate that they are effective, and the safety risks are limited or manageable, for regulators to approve them for use and sale. After the product has been approved and people are using it in their daily lives, it is important to continue to collect information about any negative side effects or adverse events; this is called pharmacovigilance. Regulators, like the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration, the companies that sell and distribute the products, and healthcare professionals who prescribe them are all required to participate in collecting, reporting, analyzing, and communicating this information. The people with the most firsthand knowledge of the benefits and harms of the drug or device are the patients who use them. They have an important responsibility to learn how to recognize adverse events, how to report them, and to stay informed of any news about the product from the other partners in the pharmacovigilance network. Those partners have a crucial responsibility to provide clear, easy-to-understand information to patients about any new safety concerns that come to light. The community of people with inherited bleeding disorders has recently encountered problems with poor communication of product safety issues, prompting two large US patient organizations, National Hemophilia Foundation and Hemophilia Federation of America, to hold a Safety Summit with all the pharmacovigilance network partners. Together they developed recommendations to improve the collection and communication of information about product safety so that patients can make well-informed, timely decisions about their use of drugs and devices. This article presents these recommendations in the context of how pharmacovigilance is supposed to work and some of the challenges encountered by the community.

Impact of different factor VIII inhibitor kinetic profiles on the inhibitor titer quantification using the modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay. Res Pract Thromb Haemost 2022; 6:e12799.

Abstract
Background Coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor titer quantification is vital for optimizing care in people with hemophilia A. Objectives This study analyzed the impact of the different kinetic profiles of four FVIII monoclonal antibodies on inhibitor titer quantification using the modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay. Methods Concentration-related and time-related profiles of FVIII antibodies (4A4, BO2C11, 2-54, ESH-8) were evaluated in vitro. FVIII residual activity was measured using a one-stage clotting assay and chromogenic substrate assay. Profiles of the FVIII antibodies were compared with the theoretical kinetic model: the ideal log (residual activity)-linear (inhibitor concentration) relationship. Different theoretical kinetic model-dependent and -independent criteria to calculate FVIII inhibitor titer were compared. Results Factor VIII monoclonal antibodies had different concentration-related and time-related profiles, ideal for comparative analysis using the modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay. The kinetic profile of 4A4 was similar to the theoretical kinetic model, while BO2C11 showed a steeper curve, and 2-54 and ESH-8 a flatter curve, than the model. In the modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay, conversion of measured FVIII residual activities for different inhibitor dilutions into FVIII inhibitor titer is based on the theoretical kinetic model. Therefore, titer calculations for FVIII inhibitors that deviate from the model are prone to underestimation or overestimation. Calculating a theoretical dilution at 50% FVIII residual activity by sigmoidal regression reflecting different kinetic inhibition profiles can provide a more accurate titer result. Conclusion Kinetic profiles of FVIII antibodies can deviate from the theoretical kinetic model in the modified Nijmegen-Bethesda assay, leading to differences in FVIII inhibitor titer quantification.

Abstract
Anti-drug antibody (ADA) development is a significant complication in the treatment of several conditions. For decades, the mainstay of hemophilia A treatment was the replacement of deficient coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) to restore hemostasis, control, and prevent bleeding events. Recently, new products have emerged for hemophilia A replacement therapy, including bioengineered FVIII molecules with enhanced pharmacokinetic profiles: the extended half-life (EHL) recombinant FVIII products. However, the main complication resulting from replacement treatment in hemophilia A is the development of anti-FVIII neutralizing alloantibodies, known as inhibitors, affecting approximately 25–30% of severe hemophilia A patients. Therefore, the immunogenicity of each FVIII product and the mechanisms that could help increase the tolerance to these products have become important research topics in hemophilia A. Furthermore, patients with inhibitors continue to require effective treatment for breakthrough bleedings and procedures, despite the availability of non-replacement therapy, such as emicizumab. Herein, we discuss the currently licensed treatments available for hemophilia A and the immunogenicity of new therapies, such as EHL-rFVIII products, compared to other products available.

Abstract
Hemophilia A, the most common hereditary disorder, is caused by clotting factor deficiency. Challenges encountered in the current treatment of hemophilia A [factor VIII (FVIII) replacement therapy] due to inhibitor development have caused ineffective treatment as well as morbidity and mortality among patients. However, there are no studies comparing the two types of FVIII treatments in terms of inhibitor development rate. Therefore, we conducted this systematic review to devise a better treatment option with a lower risk of inhibitor development. The systematic review was conducted using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and by searching several databases. Data extraction on study characteristics and outcomes was conducted. Reviewers also conducted a risk of bias assessment on all studies. All eligible studies for quantitative analysis were then processed using RevMan 5.4.1 and the data was extrapolated into cumulative outcomes and expressed in forest and funnel plots. Nine studies were included in the meta-analysis, involving a total of 2,531 hemophilia A patients who were followed up from birth until death. A higher incidence of inhibitor development was found to be associated with recombinant FVIII (rFVIII) [odds ratio (OR)=1.57, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.95-2.59; hazard ratio (HR)=1.89, 95% CI: 1.15-3.12]. The same trend was also found for high-responding inhibitors (OR=1.38, 95% CI: 0.70-2.70; HR=1.42, 95% CI: 0.84-2.39). rFVIII is associated with a higher risk of overall and high-responding inhibitor development compared to plasma-derived FVIII (pdFVIII).
