The domain specificity of anti‐factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor antibodies was determined in assays using FVIII domains generated by thrombin cleavage or expressed as recombinant polypeptides to neutralise the inhibitor. The results revealed the existence of three major types of inhibitors, and various combinations of these antibodies were found in haemophilic and autoantibody patients. Anti‐A2 domain inhibitors prevent normal function of the FVIII/factor IXa (FIXa)/phospholipid complex in an unknown manner. Binding of FVIII to phospholipid and to von Willebrand factor is blocked by anti‐C2 domain antibodies, and the binding of FVIII to FIXa is prevented by anti‐A3 domain antibodies. A rare type of inhibitor prevents release of activated FVIII from von Willebrand factor (vWf), and another probably interferes with FVIII binding to factor X (FX) because it shares the epitope of a monoclonal antibody with this property.
在使用凝血酶裂解产生的或表达为重组多肽的 FVIII 结构域来中和抑制剂的试验中,确定了抗因子 VIII(FVIII)抑制剂抗体的结构域特异性。结果显示存在三种主要类型的抑制剂,在血友病患者和自身抗体患者中发现了这些抗体的各种组合。抗A2结构域抑制剂以一种未知的方式阻止FVIII/因子IXa(FIXa)/磷脂复合物的正常功能。抗C2结构域抗体会阻止FVIII与磷脂和von Willebrand因子结合,抗A3结构域抗体会阻止FVIII与FIXa结合。一种罕见的抑制剂可阻止活化的 FVIII 从 von Willebrand 因子(vWf)中释放,另一种抑制剂可能会干扰 FVIII 与 X 因子(FX)的结合,因为它与具有这种特性的单克隆抗体的表位相同。

A complex consisting of activated factor X (FX) (enzyme) and prothrombin (substrate), both highly purified from human plasma and virus inactivated, was formulated, characterised biochemically as well as in animal studies, and given the name Partial Prothrombinase (PPT). In vitro, PPT shortened the clotting time of a high‐titre human factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor plasma in a manner similar to that of the activated prothrombin complex concentrate FEIBA and triggered coagulation in plasma samples in which factor V (FV) is present. In vivo, the ability of PPT to activate coagulation in both chimpanzees and baboons was equivalent to that of FEIBA. PPT also triggered coagulation in a von Willebrand factor(vWF)‐deficient dog and controlled bleeding in rabbits with antibody‐induced haemophilia A. Thus, studying the mechanism of action of PPT also explains the therapeutic principle of FEIBA.

The biochemical and immunochemical aspects of the development of inhibitors with a plasma‐derived, double‐virus inactivated factor VIII (FVIII) concentrate (marketed as Octavi SDPlus in Germany and Bisinact in Belgium) are described. A total of 12 cases of inhibitor formation (predominantly type II) were reported in Germany, 8 in Belgium but none in Portugal. Initially, the only difference between the non‐pasteurised, SD virus‐inactivated product Octavi and the pasteurised product Octavi SDPlus appeared to be pasteurisation, though subsequently, the quality of source material for the product was found to differ in different countries. Separation studies revealed the presence of a 40 kDa peptide fragment in some batches. It was subsequently shown that there was a strong correlation between inhibitor development and batches containing the 40 kDa marker, and a relationship between elevated markers of coagulation activation (FPA in particular) and the occurrence of the 40 kDa marker. Further work revealed that analytical methods commonly used for quality control were not suitable to highlight batch‐to‐batch differences. It was concluded that inhibitor potential (neoantigenicity) in Octavi SDPlus arose due to two effects; degradation of FVIII already present in source material; and heating of unstable FVIII degradation products. In this case, inhibitors were not caused by the overall production process, nor by GMP failures. The problem of inhibitor potential can be avoided if appropriate preventive measures are taken. Further work is needed to prove non‐neoantigenicity and to reinforce the scientific findings, and to characterise pilot batches.

Prevalence of FIX inhibitor is ten times lower than factor VIII inhibitor. FIX inhibitor patients pose major challenges for treatment because of the simultaneous occurrence of severe allergy to FIX at the time of inhibitor development. Immune tolerance induction in haemophilia B inhibitor patients with allergy to FIX is complicated due to the development of nephrotic syndrome. Moreover, response to ITI usually is poor.
