Role of clinical and laboratory parameters for treatment choice in patients with inherited FVII deficiency undergoing surgical procedures: evidence f…

Perioperative bleeding is a major concern in patients with factor VII (FVII) deficiency. Evaluating data of 95 FVII-deficient patients undergoing 110 surgical procedures (61 major, 49 minor), we assessed the impact of type of surgery, bleeding phenotype and FVII coagulant activity (FVII:C) levels on perioperative replacement therapy (RT). Compared to those with higher FVII:C levels, patients with <3% FVII:C received a higher number of RT doses (8 vs. 2, P = 0·003) for a longer RT duration (3 days vs. 1 day, P = 0·001), with no difference in RT dose. Similarly, patients with a history of major bleeds received a higher number of RT doses (8·5 vs. 2-3, P = 0·013) for a longer RT duration (2…

Prophylaxis In Congenital Factor VII Deficiency, Indications, Efficacy and Safety: Results of the STER
2010
Abstract Abstract 665 Introduction Prophylaxis is considered a difficult endeavour in FVII deficiency, especially because of the very short FVII zymogen and FVIIa half-lives, mainly in childhood. The Seven Treatment Evaluation Registry (STER, www.targetseven.org) is a prospective observational, multi-centre, web-based registry concerned with the evaluation of treatments for spontaneous bleeding episodes, surgery and prophylaxis in patients with FVII deficiency. As regards prophylaxis, STER provides the frame for a structured and detailed data capture aiming at: a) identifying patients in whom prophylaxis is advisable, b) defining clinical settings in which prophylaxis is necessary and c) de…

Inherited factor VII (FVII) deficiency is the most common of the rare autosomal recessive bleeding disorders (RBD), with an estimated prevalence of 1 per 300,000 in European countries.1,2 It is likely that the prevalence is higher in those countries where consanguineous marriages are frequent.We here report STER study results on 112 evaluable enrolled cases

Women with congenital factor VII deficiency: clinical phenotype and treatment options from two international studies
2016
Introduction A paucity of data exists on the incidence, diagnosis and treatment of bleeding in women with inherited factor VII (FVII) deficiency. Aim Here we report results of a comprehensive analysis from two international registries of patients with inherited FVII deficiency, depicting the clinical picture of this disorder in women and describing any gender-related differences. Methods A comprehensive analysis of two fully compatible, international registries of patients with inherited FVII deficiency (International Registry of Factor VII deficiency, IRF7; Seven Treatment Evaluation Registry, STER) was performed. Results In our cohort (N = 449; 215 male, 234 female), the higher prevalence…
Replacement therapy for bleeding episodes in factor VII deficiency: A prospective evaluation
2013
Patients with inherited factor VII (FVII) deficiency display different clinical phenotypes requiring ad hoc management. This study evaluated treatments for spontaneous and traumatic bleeding using data from the Seven Treatment Evaluation Registry (STER). One-hundred one bleeds were analysed in 75 patients (41 females; FVII coagulant activity <1-20%). Bleeds were grouped as haemarthroses (n=30), muscle/subcutaneous haematomas (n=16), epistaxis (n=12), gum bleeding (n=13), menorrhagia (n=16), central nervous system (CNS; n=9), gastrointestinal (GI; n=2) and other (n=3). Of 93 evaluable episodes, 76 were treated with recombinant, activated FVII (rFVIIa), eight with fresh frozen plasma (FFP), s…
