Objective: To investigate the effect of multiple clinical parameters (age, weight, blood types, and bleeding types) on FⅧ pharmacokinetic parameters (PK parameters) in adult patients with severe hemophilia A (SHA), draw up individualized preventive treatment plans, and observe clinical efficacy and economic benefit.
Methods: Forty SHA patients treated in our hospital from January 2018 to May 2019 were enrolled, with their age, weight, blood types, bleeding types, and PK parameters measured to analyze the effects of clinical parameters on PK parameters. Individualized preventive treatment was developed, and patients were followed up for 1 year. The annual bleeding times (ABR), annual joint bleeding times (AJBR), and annual FⅧ dosage were observed and compared before and after treatment.
Results: Weight, blood types and bleeding types could affect the PK parameters of FVIII. A prevention plan was formulated under the guidance of FVIII half-life. After 1 year of follow-up, ABR decreased by 88.9%, AJBR decreased by 90%, and annual FⅧ dosage increased by 47%. The dosage of FⅧ in 8 patients after was less than that before prevention, and the average half-life time of these 8 patients was 13.32 h.
Conclusions: 1. Weight, blood types, and bleeding types of adult SHA patients could affect FVIII half-life. As body mass index increased, FVIII half-life were significantly prolonged. The FVIII half-life of patients with type O blood were significantly shorter than those with other blood types, and the FVIII half-life of knee joint bleeding were conspicuously shorter than those of elbow joint bleeding. 2. Individualized preventive treatment could markedly reduce bleeding times. For patients with a long half-life period, the total annual FⅧ dosage could be reduced to achieve bleeding prevention and economic benefit.
