Predicting Individual Changes in Terminal Half-Life After Switching to Extended Half-Life Concentrates in Patients With Severe Hemophilia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Predicting individual effects of switching from standard half-life (SHL) to extended half-life (EHL) FVIII/FIX concentrates is pivotal in clinical care, but large-scale individual data are scarce. The aim of this study was to assess individual changes in terminal half-life (THL) after switching to EHL concentrates and identifying determinants of a clinically relevant THL extension in people with severe hemophilia. Data from participants with pharmacokinetic studies on both SHL and EHL were extracted from the Web-Accessible Population Pharmacokinetics Service (WAPPS) database and stratified according to hemophilia type and age groups (children/adults). A 30% increase in THL was considered clinically relevant. Predictors of a relevant increase were identified using logistic regression. Data from 688 persons with severe hemophilia (2174 infusions) were included: 89% hemophilia A; median age: 21.7 (interquartile range [IQR]: 11.5-37.7); positive inhibitor history: 11.7%. THL increased by 38% (IQR: 17%-67%) and 212% (139%-367%) for hemophilia A and B, respectively. All EHL-FIX concentrate users showed clinically relevant THL extension. However, 40% (242/612) of people with hemophilia A showed limited extension or decrease in THL after switching. Relevant FVIII-THL extension was predicted by short baseline THL and blood group non-O in both children and adults. In conclusion, clinically relevant THL extension was observed in all 75/76 participants switching to EHL-FIX, and in 60% of 612 switching to EHL-FVIII. Short THL on SHL-FVIII and blood group non-O were identified as predictors for a relevant THL increase after switching to EHL-FVIII. Individualized pharmacokinetic assessment may guide clinical decision-making when switching from SHL to EHL-FVIII.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
