New Clinical Evidence on Emicizumab and Breastfeeding – JTH

Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Simon Alexander Krooss et al., adding:

“Transfer of emicizumab into breast milk in postpartum acquired hemophilia A

Acquired hemophilia A can arise postpartum, and emicizumab is increasingly used for prophylaxis, yet whether it passes into breast milk was unknown.

In a woman who developed AHA four months after delivery, emicizumab reached up to 20 μg/mL in breast milk against a steady-state plasma level of 42 μg/mL.

Anti-FVIII antibodies appeared in plasma but not milk.”
