Abstract

Individual selection of dose and calculation of ratio for prevention of the introduction of the concentrate of coagulation factor VIII 23 patients with severe hemophilia A carried out the pharmacokinetic study. The half-life of exogenous factor VIII is 12 hours, registered in 12 (52%) patients, 7 boys (30%) - the half-life of factor VIII was 18 hours, in 4 (18%) children - 11 hours. Individual pharmacokinetic calculations allowed to carry out secondary prevention of spontaneous bleeding with multiplicity systematic introduction of a concentrate of coagulation factor VIII in 72, 96, or 48 hours, respectively, without bleeding complications. The combined change in parameters such as higher clearance (Cl) to 5,3 ml х kg-1 х hour-1, volume of distribution (Vd) to 79.0 ml х kg-1 with the decline in the normalized measure of the area under the curve (AUCnorm) to 14.7 ml-1 х h х kg and the recovery index (Recovery in vivo) to 1.27 % / ME х kg-1 and half-life (T/) to 11.0 hours, characterizes a type of inhibitory response to the introduction of the concentrate of coagulation factor VIII.
