Abstract

The ISTH SSC on Factor VIII/IX has previously issued guidelines for studies assessing the pharmacokinetics (PK) of factor concentrates [1,2]. They suggested drawing 10 or 11 blood samples over a period of 32-48h or 50-72h, after infusing 25-50 or 50-75 IU/kg, respectively for factor VIII (FVIII) or factor IX (FIX), in cohorts of 12-15 patients with a crossover design. Such PK studies are not ideal for tailoring the treatment of individual patients, mostly for the requirement of several blood samples. Due to broad inter-individual variation, the individual disposition of FVIII and FIX cannot be predicted from morphometric characteristics and average PK parameters, but requires empirical assessment in each individual [3–6]. Previous guidance of this ISTH SSC described the PK methodology for the prediction of individual trough levels of FVIII [7]. The present communication, building on recent advancements in the population PK (PopPK) of FVIII and FIX [8], adds to the former documents.
