Method of treatment of haemophilia
In the treatment of haemophilia, clotting proteins missing from the blood are put back into the blood. Which prevented its infection. This type of protein is inserted in the blood through medicine so that clots are formed in the blood and it can be prevented from flowing. The Hemgenix drug fills in the deficiency of this protein in the gene to replace the missing clotting protein in the blood. The injection triggers the production of Factor IX clotting protein. In the year 2020, the commercialization rights of Hemgenics were sold to CSL Behring. According to uniQure, approximately 16 million people in the US and Europe have haemophilia B.
