Description

Halet Türkantoz, leading eleven colleagues, published a 2026 report on breakthrough bleeding in the GTH-AHA-EMI study of acquired haemophilia A, a rare disorder where antibodies attack clotting factor VIII. A preventive drug, emicizumab, reduced bleeding overall, yet 22 clinically relevant new bleeds occurred in 14 of 47 patients during twelve weeks of prophylaxis. The team pulled study records and surveyed investigators for details.

Nine bleeds counted as major, fifteen arose spontaneously, and twenty needed treatment, most often with recombinant factor VIIa. Eight patients went to hospital and nine needed intensive care or invasive procedures, though most bleeds resolved and permanent harm was reported in two patients. No clotting complications appeared, so the authors call treatment safe and usually effective.
