Clinical monograph
How it works
It targets tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI), blocking its inhibitory action so that thrombin generation via the tissue factor pathway is enhanced, rebalancing haemostasis independent of factor VIII or IX.
Prescribing in practice
- As a haemostatic agent it carries a risk of thromboembolic events, so it should be prescribed and supervised by a haemophilia specialist centre.
- It is given by subcutaneous injection for prophylaxis and is not intended for on-demand treatment of an acute bleed.
- Care is needed when combining with other haemostatic agents because of the additive thrombotic risk.
Monitoring
Monitor bleeding frequency and remain vigilant for any signs or symptoms of thrombosis.
Counselling the patient
- This medicine is a regular injection given under the skin to help prevent bleeds.
- Report symptoms such as limb swelling, chest pain or breathlessness without delay.
Evidence & guidelines
Marstacimab is a non-factor haemophilia therapy regulated through the MHRA; prescribing should follow the approved SPC and specialist guidance.
