Analysis of the Safety Profile of Commonly Used Procoagulants Using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System
Conclusions:Our analysis found that the rate of reports of death and MI were higher with rFVIIa than other procoagulants, while reports of ischemic stroke and intracranial hemorrhage were more common with PCCs. rFVIIa has been associated with cardiovascular before, a finding reiterated by our study. There are notable limitations of this type of analysis, including the reliance on the accurate reporting of adverse events to the FDA, possibility of duplications of reports in the FAERS database, and the importance of not conflating correlation with causation as it relates to these events. The association between rFVIIa and in...

Home Based Primary Care for Patients with Sickle Cell Disease
Conclusion: Overall, home based primary care seems to be a promising alternative for pts with SCD. It had a significant impact on patient quality of care and may improve prescription adherence, but more data are needed to determine if it has an effect on healthcare utilization for pts with SCD.DisclosuresMoore: Ohio State University College of Medicine: Research Funding.

Description of the First Cases with ADAMTS13 Mutations in Hungary
CONCLUSIONS:Clinical and molecular characterization of the first 5 Hungarian cases with ADAMTS13 mutations was presented. Compound heterozygous, damaging ADAMTS13 mutations with deficient plasma ADAMTS13 activity were associated with serious clinical consequences. In case of thrombotic microangiopathy in young patients with stroke, or HELLP syndrome, complete workup for ADAMTS13 activity and inhibitors is necessary, and genetic analysis should be considered. Three new ADAMTS13 mutations (c.1016_1017delCA, c.3199T>A , c.2839C>T) were identified and shown to be associated with decreased plasma ADAMTS13 activity.Disclos...

Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance - Patient Characteristics and Referral Patterns
ConclusionMGUS is often incidentally detected as part of a work up for other medical conditions, and our results reveal that there is a variety of reasons for which monoclonal testing is performed. With recent developments in our understanding of the significance of monoclonal gammopathy and its association with certain renal and organ damage (Fermand et al., 2018; Leung et al., 2012), there may be a change in how the paraproteinemia investigations are utilized by clinicians in different disciplines. It will be important to recognize and establish appropriate indications for testing. Furthermore, MGUS patients present with...

Sialic Acid Content on Platelet Surface Glycoproteins Modulates Thrombin-Induced Activation
Platelets are fundamentally important in normal hemostasis and pathological thrombosis (i.e. cardiovascular diseases, stroke, etc.). Platelets mediate the initial first-step in hemostasis through surface glycoproteins like the GPIb-IX-V complex and integrin αIIbβ3 (GPIIbIIIa). Although the functions of platelet surface glycoproteins are well known, the roles of posttranslational modifications on those surface glycoproteins are poorly understood. We have recently shown that sialic acid is a key regulator of platelet survival. As platelets circulate and age in blood, they lose sialic acid and are rapidly cleared b...

Fibrinolysis of Contracted Blood Clots Depends on Whether Plasminogen Activator Acts from inside or Outside
Fibrinolysis involves the dissolution of polymeric fibrin networks that is required to restore blood flow through vessels obstructed by clots and thrombi. The efficiency of lysis depends on the susceptibility of fibrin to enzymatic digestion, which is governed by the structure and spatial organization of fibrin fibers as well as porosity and composition of the clot. Platelet-driven clot contraction results in compaction of the erythrocytes into the core of the clot, effectively reducing the permeability of the clot, and influences fibrin network structure. We have shown that clot contraction is reduced in blood from patien...

A Study of Haemostatic Parameters in Patients with Philadelphia-Negative Myeloproliferative Neoplasms. Correlation with, Clinical, Laboratory, Molecular, and Treatment Characteristics
DiscussionGlobal assays such as thromboelastography are more useful than conventional hemostatic laboratory tests in depicting the hypercoagulable state in MPN. They may be useful in combination with other parameters such as the mutational status in identifying patients with MPN at higher risk for thrombosis and guide clinicians for the type of treatment (both cytoreductive and anticoagulants). Tests of platelet function assessment may help the clinicians adjust the type and dose of antiplatelet therapy.DisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

On the Links between Arterial and Venous Thrombosis: A Comparative Genomic Analysis of Cardiovascular Disease and Venous Thromboembolism
Discussion and conclusion: our comparative analyses provide new data on how venous and arterial thrombosis differ at a transcriptional level. Specifically, we identified a set of 473 genes whose expression levels were consistently changed in both CVD and VTE, and 124 genes with divergent expression levels between these conditions. The prominence of pathways associated with hemostasis, innate immunity and neutrophil function in both CVD and VTE are in line with the concept of immunothrombosis in the pathogenesis of thrombotic disorders. The clustering of MI, IS and PAOD compared to VTE and CS is coherent with the concept th...

Recurrent Stroke: The Role of Thrombophilia in a Large International Pediatric Stroke Population
CONCLUSIONS:Identifying children at increased for recurrent AIS events is important in intensifying preventative measures. Among 894 Canadian, English and German pediatric stroke patients, 17.9% experienced recurrent AIS at a median of 3.1 months after the index stroke. The presence of more than one prothrombotic risk factor is associated with AIS recurrence in childrenDisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Efficacy and Safety of Prothrombin Complex Concentrate (PCC) for Direct Oral Anticoagulant Reversal: A Single Institutional Experience
ConclusionIn this cohort, 80% of pts demonstrated clinical stability/improvement of hemorrhage. All pts were able to undergo surgical procedures; however 17% required additional FFP to achieve hemostasis. Thromboembolism occurred in 12% of patients. No deaths could definitely be attributed to 4PCC; however, 30% of deaths could be attributable to the underlying hemorrhagic episode.DisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Real-World Comparisons of Cardiovascular Events between Different Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Among Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
CONCLUSION: CP-CML patients treated with different TKIs (ponatinib, bosutinib, imatinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib) did not have different incidence of cardiovascular events (MACE, AOEs, VTEs) in this small cohort of real-world patients with ≥6-month of follow-up. The results were consistent among patients with prior use of one and two TKI types.DisclosuresLevy: Takeda (Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.): Consultancy. Xie: STATinMED Research: Employment.

Benefits and Limitations of Long-Term Eculizumab Treatment for Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH): Real-World Data from Large Cohort Study in Russia
Conclusions: The results of the study show both the high efficacy and limitations of treatment with eculizumab for PNH in real-world practice. Prospectively confirmed significant improvement of the overall survival on eculizumab stress the need for faster and wider access to costly therapy. Nevertherless, a number of limitations, including BTH and extravascular hemolysis, lack of control of bone marrow failure and further clonal evolution, determine the relevance of next-generation complement inhibitors and risk-adjusted allogeneic HSCT as a curative option.DisclosuresKulagin: Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc: Consultancy, Honoraria.

Comparison between Automated Erythrocytopharesis (AECP) and Manual Exchange Transfusion (M-Ex)) in Reducing Hb-S and in Recovery of Acute Chest Syndrome and Other Acute Presentations of Sickle Cell Disease Patients
Conclusions:Erythrocytopharesis (Automated RBC exchange) is effective, quick and safe procedure that is life saving for many patients with ACS and is associated with less difficulties and complications if compared with the manual exchange. Because SCA is a national problem in Saudi Arabia and acute chest syndrome and other acute major complications comprehensively kill SCD patients, Automated Erythocytopharesis should be available nation-wide like dialysis machines at all large hospitals in all cities and should be distributed according to the prevalence of SCA in the area or location.DisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.
