Extended half-life of factor IX (FIX) demonstrated clinical benefit and lower treatment burden than standard half-life FIX products in clinical trials. We analysed the impact in efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PKs) and costs of the switch from nonacog alfa (rFIX) to albutrepenonacog alfa (rFIX-FP) in the first patient with haemophilia B (HB) treated in Spain outside clinical trials. A 7-year-old boy presented with HB with poor venous access and repetition infections using rFIX, which was switched to rFIX-FP. Prophylaxis was adjusted by PKs using WAPPS-Hemo tailoring from 100 IU/kg/week of rFIX to 80 IU/kg/3 weeks of rFIX-FP. Comparing 6 months before, rFIX-FP reduced 68.5% FIX consumption/kg and 58.3% infusion frequency, but total costs/weight showed a slight increase. Ratio of half-life between rFIX and rFIX-FP was 3.4–3.7. This case report revealed that switch to rFIX-FP decreased frequency and FIX consumption, without adverse events and bleeds.
