RESUMO
Objective@#To compare the differences in population pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters between two recombinant coagulation factor Ⅷ (FⅧ) preparations, Kogenate FS and Advate, in patients with hemophilia A, and to provide the theoretical basis of precise individualized treatment for those patients.@*Methods@#Patients with moderate or severe hemophilia A who had at least one injection of Kogenate FS or Advate at 41 international hemophilia centers were enrolled as subjects from the WAPPS-Hemo project since January 2015 to December 2017. The half-lives of the two drugs and the time of FⅧ activity reaching 2% (TAT 2%) were calculated, and the differences of PK between the two drugs among different age and dose subgroups were further analyzed.@*Results@#①The mean age of patients in the Kogenate FS (n=117) and Advate groups (n=120) were (27.6±17.7) and (23.4±16.2) years old, respectively. All patients in the two groups were males. ②The administration doses in the Kogenate FS and Advate groups were (31.5±13.1) IU/kg and (38.17±14.83) IU/kg, respectively; the half-lives of the two drugs were (12.3±3.5) h and (10.8±2.9) h, respectively; and the TAT 2% were (65.2±21.7) h and (57.0±17.9) h, respectively. ③In the Kogenate FS group, the drug half-lives in patients aged ≥12 and <12 years old were (12.7±3.7) h and (11.1±2.5) h, respectively; the TAT 2% were (68.6±22.9) h and (55.8±14.6) h, respectively. In the Advate group, the drug half-lives in patients aged ≥12 and <12 years old were (11.4±3.1) h and (9.4±1.8) h, respectively; and the TAT 2% were (61.1±18.0) h and (45.2±11.3) h, respectively. ④In the Kogenate FS group, the drug half-lives in <20 IU/kg, (20-29) IU/kg, (30-39) IU/kg and ≥40 IU/kg groups were (13.3±4.0) h, (12.3±3.6) h, (12.2±3.5) h and (11.6±2.6) h, respectively; and the TAT 2% were (61.5±21.4) h, (63.9±22.4) h, (67.0±24.3) h and (68.0±19.5) h, respectively. In the Advate group, the drug half-lives in <20 IU/kg, (20-29) IU/kg, (30-39) IU/kg and <40 IU/kg groups were (11.5±3.8) h, (11.4±3.7) h, (11.0±2.9) h and (10.4±2.3) h, respectively; and the TAT 2% were (50.8±19.2) h, (56.7±21.0) h, (58.2±18.8) h and (58.1±15.8) h, respectively.@*Conclusion@#The PK parameters of Kogenate FS are superior to those of Advate among different age and dose subgroups.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the clinical manifestations and the criteria for the diagnosis of POEMS syndrome.Methods The clinical characteristics of 36 cases of POEMS syndrome were retrospectively reviewed and compared with the cases reported in literature.Results In addition to the typical characteristics of polyneuropathy(100%),organomegaly(92%),endocrinopathy(86%),monoclonal plasmaproliferative disorder(100%) and skin changes(86%),the patients of POEMS syndrome also have other important features including extravascular volume overload(97%),papilledema(57%) and bone lesions(25%).Furthermore,25% of POEMS syndrome patients have co-existent Castleman disease.Conclusion To make the diagnosis of POEMS syndrome,both major and minor criteria are required.The former includes polyneuropathy and monoclonal plasmaproliferative disorder and the latter includes osteosclerotic bone lesions,Castleman disease,papilledema,organomegaly,edema or serous cavity effusion,endocrinopathy and skin changes.
