Correlation between FIX genotype and pharmacokinetics of Nonacog alpha according to a multicentre Italian study
Introduction Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies on recombinant FIX concentrate, Nonacog alpha, were conducted with different sampling time designs which gave rise to not complete and homogenous outcomes. In addition, patient's FIX genotype/PK relationship has never been investigated. Aim Investigate how different sampling times may affect PK parameters and try to find a FIX genotype/PK relationship. Patients and Methods A cohort pharmacokinetic, Nonacog Alpha single-dose, open-label, non-comparative study was conducted in eight Comprehensive Care Haemophilia Centres in Italy. Seventeen previously treated moderate or severe haemophilia B patients were enrolled. Factors IX:C one-stage clotting assa…
