The C1 and C2 domains of blood coagulation factor VIII mediate its endocytosis by dendritic cells

open access: yesHaematologica, 2017
The development of inhibitory antibodies to therapeutic factor VIII is the major complication of replacement therapy in patients with hemophilia A. The first step in the initiation of the anti-factor VIII immune response is factor VIII interaction with ...

von Willebrand factor binds to the surface of dendritic cells and modulates peptide presentation of factor VIII

open access: yesHaematologica, 2016
It has been proposed that von Willebrand factor might affect factor VIII immunogenicity by reducing factor VIII uptake by antigen presenting cells. Here we investigate the interaction of recombinant von Willebrand factor with immature monocyte-derived ...

Extrahepatic sources of factor VIII potentially contribute to the coagulation cascade correcting the bleeding phenotype of mice with hemophilia A

open access: yesHaematologica, 2015
A large fraction of factor VIII in blood originates from liver sinusoidal endothelial cells although extrahepatic sources also contribute to plasma factor VIII levels.

Alloantibodies to therapeutic factor VIII in hemophilia A: the role of von Willebrand factor in regulating factor VIII immunogenicity

open access: yesHaematologica, 2015
The rising incidence of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) against therapeutic factor VIII prompted the conduct of studies to answer the question as to whether this rise is related to the introduction of recombinant factor VIII products.

Impact of being underweight or overweight on factor VIII dosing in hemophilia A patients

open access: yesHaematologica, 2013
Since 1981, the number of factor VIII units to infuse into patients with hemophilia A in order to achieve adequate circulating factor VIII levels has been calculated using the formula: [body weight(kg)×desired factor VIII increase(%)]/2, assuming a ...

Multiyear Factor VIII Expression after AAV Gene Transfer for Hemophilia A.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2021
BACKGROUND The goal of gene therapy for patients with hemophilia A is to safely impart long-term stable factor VIII expression that predictably ameliorates bleeding with the use of the lowest possible vector dose.

BIVV001 Fusion Protein as Factor VIII Replacement Therapy for Hemophilia A.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2020
BACKGROUND Factor VIII replacement products have improved the care of patients with hemophilia A, but the short half-life of these products affects the patients' quality of life. The half-life of recombinant factor VIII ranges from 15 to 19 hours because

Purified factor VIII [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1995
Patients with haemophilia A lack only factor VIII. Why give them anything else as replacement treatment? Previously the answer to this question was determined largely by the practical difficulty in separating factor VIII from fibrinogen, fibronectin, and immunoglobulins, so that concentrates contained 2000 U/mg respectively, but concentrates prepared ...

A Randomized Trial of Factor VIII and Neutralizing Antibodies in Hemophilia A.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2016
BACKGROUND The development of neutralizing anti-factor VIII alloantibodies (inhibitors) in patients with severe hemophilia A may depend on the concentrate used for replacement therapy.
