Kinetic evaluation of four Factor VIII concentrates by model-independent methods
2009
Single-dose kinetics of 4 Factor VIII concentrates (Kryobulin, Hemofil T, Koate, cryoprecipitate) were studied in 41 patients with haemophilia-A. Model-independent methods were adopted for calculating the kinetic parameters (area under the curve, clearance, area under the moment curve, mean residence time, volume of distribution at steady-state). No substantial difference was observed in the kinetic characteristics of the 4 Factor VIII concentrates. A considerable interindividual variability of the calculated kinetic parameters was demonstrated for all concentrates. Our findings support the need to individualize Factor VIII dosage.
