Factor VIII recovery after a single infusion of recalibrated ReFacto<sup>®</sup> in 14 severe haemophilia A patients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A recent multicentre collaborative study showed higher estimates of ReFacto potency when assayed with ReFacto Laboratory Standard(TM) (RLS) in comparison when standards consisting of full-length factor VIII (FVIII) were used. The RLS was hence recalibrated, leading to a 20% increase in the amount of ReFacto per vial without change in the labelled potency. The primary objective of this study was to determine the incremental and in vivo recovery of the recalibrated ReFacto in patients with severe haemophilia A. Fourteen male severe haemophilia A patients (FVIII < 1 IU dL(-1)) with a cumulative previous exposure days to any FVIII product >150 were administered an intravenous infusion 50 +/- 5 IU kg(-1) of ReFacto over a 5-min period. Blood samples were collected before infusion and after 15, 30 and 60 min. FVIII clotting activity (FVIII:C) was assessed in a central laboratory by the chromogenic substrate assay. After ReFacto infusion, peak FVIII:C was obtained within 15 min for 10 patients and within 30 min for the remaining four. Mean FVIII:C at peak was 117.7 +/- 17.3 IU dL(-1). Mean incremental recovery was 2.22 +/- 0.27 IU dL(-1) per IU kg(-1) while mean in vivo recovery was 105.9 +/- 14.6%. One patient reported three mild adverse events rated as 'unrelated' to the study drug. FVIII recovery after recalibrated ReFacto infusion falls within the expected range and is similar to the values reported for other FVIII concentrates.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
