Abstract excerpt
We characterized anti-factor VIII antibodies in a mild haemophilia A patient with an Arg593-->Cys mutation in the A2 domain, using V gene phage-display technology. All isolated single-chain variable-domain antibody fragments were directed against residues Arg484-Ile508, a binding site for factor VIII inhibitors in the A2 domain. After a further period of replacement therapy, a transient rise in inhibitor titre...
