Diagnosis and management of haemophilia patients with inhibitors is often tricky due to the heterogeneous nature of the antibodies with regard to their kinetics, as well as the co-existence of other interfering antibodies. Plasma samples from severe haemophilia A patients from India with and without FVIII inhibitors were analysed for the presence of possible co-existing antibodies such as lupus anticoagulants (LA), anti-cardiolipin antibodies (ACLA), anti-β2-glycoprotein-I (anti-β2-GP-I) antibodies, viral transfusion transmitted disease (HIV, HBsAg, HCV) related antibodies, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides (anti-CCP), and anti-nuclear antibodies. A high incidence of LA and anti-HCV antibodies was detected in Indian haemophilia A patients similar to earlier reports. More importantly, a relatively high incidence of autoantibodies to nuclear antigens (18.62%) and anti-CCP antibodies (1.38%) associated with autoimmune disorders was also seen in these congenital haemophilia A patients with and without inhibitors. Knowledge on the antibody profile in these haemophilia patients especially in those with FVIII inhibitors along with correlation with the clinical manifestations and other risk factors for inhibitor development could possibly shed more light on the complex immune response in these patients. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.
