Overview
Recent advances in molecular diagnosis of haemophilia have enabled the study of genotypic and phenotypic relationships and of the effect of gene mutations on the occurrence of serious disease complications, such as inhibitors. We present the first results of the National Genetic Haemophilia Program, established in 2014. So far, we have investigated 173 haemophilia A patients, of which 141 have severe haemophilia, representing 60% of the population of severe haemophiliacs in Slovakia. In severe haemophiliacs, we identified 39 different mutations, including 18 new mutations not yet listed in the international mutation database. The proportion of mutations in our population of 141 severe haemophiliacs is consistent with literature: inversions of introns 22 and 1 in 59 (42%), nonsense mutations in 16 (11%), large deletions in 4 (3%), frame shift/stop codon mutations in 38 (27%), splice site mutations in 5 (4%) and missense mutations in 19 (13%) of patients. Analysis of gene mutations in 34 inhibitor patients confirmed a comparable risk of inhibitor development in patients with inversions (27%), nonsense mutations (25%) and frame shift/stop codon mutations (29%), with a higher risk of mutations localized in parts of the F8 gene encoding the light chain of FVIII molecule compared to heavy chain mutations – OR: 2.57 (0.85–7.77). Evaluation of the success rate of immune tolerance induction (ITI) in 22 patients (26 ITI courses) according to the gene defects in inhibitor patients showed complete and partial remission in 75% and 88–100% of patients with inversions and other gene mutations, respectively. These results are influenced by the small number of patients and this issue requires further study.
Key words:
F8 gene mutations – haemophilia A – factor FVIII inhibitors – immune tolerance induction
