Alyaa Al-Mughairy: Rethinking Emicizumab Low-Dose Regimens to Ensure Safe and Sustainable Patient Access

Alyaa Al-Mughairy, Pediatric Hematology Oncology Senior Consultant at Ministry of Health Oman,and National Oncology Centre at Royal Hospital, shared Michael Makris‘s post on LinkedIn, adding:

”While standard maintenance doses for Emicizumab in hemophilia A target high plasma concentrations, real-world clinical experience in low economic countries, including our own suggests a low-dose regimens can still effectively maintain a 0.0 Annual bleeding rate for spontaneous bleeds.

It’s time to re-consider low doses regimen, ensuring sustainable access driven model of care to all patients without compromising patient safety or posing burden on the healthcare system.”
