TFPI Levels in Haemophilia A and B Patients

September 29, 2020 updated by: CHU de Reims

Measurement of the Plasmatic TFPI Level in Haemophilia Patients and Correlation With Thrombin Generation Assay (TGA) Parameters

The goal of this study is to measure the TFPI plasma level, a molecule involved in the regulation of the coagulation system, in haemophilia patients. The second objective is to assess the effects of TFPI inhibition on thrombin generation. Indeed, there is sparse data on the physiological and pathological changes of TFPI levels in human and particularly in hemophilia patients. Yet, TFPI inhibitors may become one of the new by-passing treatments of haemophilia. Until now, published data mainly reports in vitro pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of TFPI inhibitors. Hence, in vivo effects of TFPI inhibition remain unclear, especially in haemophilia patients.

The clinical development of such molecules requires a dedicated biological monitoring. Thrombin Generation Assay (TGA) in Poor Platelets Plasma (PPP) is a good candidate since it is sensitive to Factor VIII and Factor IX deficiencies as well as to TFPI. However, TGA results are very dependent on experimental conditions (i. e. Tissue Factor and phospholipids concentrations) and the relationship between TFPI plasma level and TGA parameters has not been studied yet. This study should provide with original data on TFPI plasma levels and the effect of TFPI on thrombin generation in haemophilia patients. This should help to define the monitoring of TFPI inhibitors in Haemophilia.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study is a single-institution cohort study. Patients will be informed during their follow-up consultation. If the patient agrees to participate to this study, a non-opposition form will be signed.

If blood tests are prescribed during the consultation, the unused plasma samples that are not required to perform the prescribed analyses will be collected and anonymized in order to measure the TGA and TFPI levels.

TFPI plasmatic level and TFPI activity measurements will be performed by a quantitative ELISA assay (Total TFPI ELISA kit®, R&d Systems) and a chromogenic assay (Actichrom TFPI®, Cryopep) respectively.

TGA will be performed on a Fluoroskan® machine using 3 different levels of Tissue Factor (TF): 1, 5 and 20 pM. In order to study the relation between different levels of TFPI inhibitors and TGA parameters, TGA will also be performed by spiking blood samples with several concentrations of TFPI inhibitor. For each TGA performed, ETP (Endogenous Thrombin Potential, nM/min), peak (nM) and lagtime (min) will be analyzed.

Clinical data will be collected from the computerized patient record: date of birth, age, gender, haemophilia type (A or B) and its severity, ongoing treatments and deficient factor level.

The goal of this study is to measure the TFPI plasma level in haemophilia patients. The second objective is to assess the effects of TFPI inhibition on thrombin generation. This study should provide with original data on TFPI plasma levels and the effect of TFPI on thrombin generation in haemophilia patients. This should help to define the monitoring of TFPI inhibitors in Haemophilia.

There is no additional risk for the patient since only unused blood samples, not needed for the prescribed blood tests, will be collected.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study
