Reproduction is authorised provided the source is acknowledged. 1. Background Today’s standard treatment of congenital haemophilia (and acquired haemophilia A) is based on prophylactic or on-demand replacement therapy with coagulation factor VIII (FVIII), either with plasma derived or with recombinant FVIII products. Principally both substance classes may be used for prophylactic treatment as well as for therapeutic treatment in case of spontaneous bleedings. Inhibitor development in haemophilia A patients receiving FVIII products mostly occurs in previously untreated or minimally treated patients (PUPs), who are still within the first 50 days of exposure to the treatment.

  • PRAC Draft Agenda of Meeting 4 -7 March 2013
    4 March 2013 EMA/PRAC/141813/2013 Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) Agenda of the meeting on 4-7 March 2013 Explanatory notes The Notes give a brief explanation of relevant agenda items and should be read in conjunction with the agenda. EU Referral procedures for safety reasons: Urgent EU procedures and Other EU referral procedures (Items 2 and 3 of the PRAC agenda) A referral is a procedure used to resolve issues such as concerns over the safety or benefit-risk balance of a medicine or a class of medicines. In a referral, the EMA is requested to conduct a scientific assessment of a particular medicine or class of medicines on behalf of the European Union (EU). For further detailed information on safety related referrals please see: http://www.ema.europa.eu/ema/index.jsp?curl=pages/regulation/general/general_content_000150.jsp&mid =WC0b01ac05800240d0 Signals assessment and prioritisation (Item 4 of the PRAC agenda) A safety signal is information on a new or incompletely documented adverse event that is potentially caused by a medicine and that warrants further investigation. Signals are generated from several sources such as spontaneous reports, clinical studies and the scientific literature. The evaluation of safety signals is a routine part of pharmacovigilance and is essential to ensuring that regulatory authorities have a comprehensive knowledge of a medicine’s benefits and risks. The presence of a safety signal does not mean that a medicine has caused the reported adverse event. The adverse event could be a symptom of another illness or caused by another medicine taken by the patient.
