The safety and efficacy of a monoclonal antibody purified factor IX concentrate were evaluated in two continuing trials of 32 previously untreated patients with mild, moderate, or severe hemophilia B. Patients were evaluated every 2 weeks for 24 weeks and every 3 months thereafter for at least 1 year. No patients became positive for human immunodeficiency virus antibody or hepatitis C virus antibody during the trial. Two patients developed a false-positive hepatitis B core antibody, one transiently, but neither had elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT). None of the 25 patients evaluable for non-A, non-B, non-C hepatitis by strict International Society of Thrombosis and Hemostasis criteria developed elevated levels of ALT indicative of posttransfusion infection. Anaphylaxis occurred in one subject who also developed an inhibitor to factor IX (19.3 Bethesda units). Five of the eight adverse events reported (63%) were mild in severity, and the relationship of three of these to therapy was considered remote. Hemostasis with monoclonal antibody purified factor IX concentrate was excellent in all patients.

D002836 Hemophilia B A deficiency of blood coagulation factor IX inherited as an X-linked disorder. (Also known as Christmas Disease, after the first patient studied in detail, not the holy day.) Historical and clinical features resemble those in classic hemophilia (HEMOPHILIA A), but patients present with fewer symptoms. Severity of bleeding is usually similar in members of a single family. Many patients are asymptomatic until the hemostatic system is stressed by surgery or trauma. Treatment is similar to that for hemophilia A.

D005164 Factor IX Storage-stable blood coagulation factor acting in the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. Its activated form, IXa, forms a complex with factor VIII and calcium on platelet factor 3 to activate factor X to Xa. Deficiency of factor IX results in HEMOPHILIA B (Christmas Disease).
