Omotola Olasupo and Colleagues Present Comparative Safety of Hemophilia Therapies in Canada
RPTH Journal shared on LinkedIn:
”Comparative safety of hemophilia therapies in Canada
Real-world comparative safety data for hemophilia therapies remain limited.
This study leverages national registry data to better understand adverse drug reactions across commonly used treatments using Canadian registry data over 5 years
- Allergic reactions were the most frequently reported adverse drug reactions
- A higher number of reported events was observed with emicizumab, although novelty bias cannot be excluded
- No inhibitor development was reported with emicizumab or bypassing agents
These findings provide important real-world insights into the relative safety of therapies used in hemophilia A and B, while highlighting the need for continued pharmacovigilance as treatment landscapes evolve.”
