Brief summary

Rhesus conflict between mother and fetus is due to the different antigenic composition of erythrocytes. During the first pregnancy, sensitization of the mother to fetal erythrocytes rhesus D (RhD) antigens is formed. During the next pregnancy, fetal red blood cells are attacked by the mother's antibodies, and fetal/newborn hemolytic disease develops. The drug Rhesoglobin blocks the interaction of the fetal erythrocytes RhD antigen and the immune system of the mother and prevents the development of Rhesus sensitization.

Detailed description

The screening stage The pregnant woman (participant) has to sign an informed consent. After the signed informed consent procedure, the patient is assessed for meeting the inclusion and non-inclusion (exclusion) criteria. Patients who were included in the study are assessed according to additional criteria for inclusion in the Pharmacokinetics subgroup. The clinical stage According to the study protocol, patients receive two prophylactic doses of the study drug at a dose of 300 mcg - at 28 weeks of gestation and within 72 hours after delivery. Patients receive the second dose only in the case of the birth of an Rh-positive child. Before and after each injection of the drug, blood will be taken to control the level of anti-Rh0 (D) antibodies. In the Pharmacokinetics subgroup, additional blood samples will be taken to determine the following pharmacokinetic parameters: * Serum clearance * Volume of distribution * AUC (area under curve) * Т1/2 (α and β) (half-life time) * Cmax (maximum/peak serum concentration) * Tmax (time to reach the maximum serum concentration) * Kel (elimination rate constant) The final stage The patient should be monitored for 6 months ± 5 days, after the last injection of the drug, blood samples are taken after 3 and 6 months to assess sensitization to the Rh antigen.

Inclusion criteria

* Rh-negative women who are not sensitized to Rh0 (D) antigen between the ages of 18 and 45; * signed informed patient consent to participate in the study; * pregnancy from a Rh-positive man; * immunocompetent patients (CD 4+ counts above 200 per μl, HIV negative, or those with the virus particle count of less than 200 per μl or 400000 per ml); * body mass index should be within normal limits (\> 18.5 kg / m2 and \<30.0 kg / m2); * patients who have not received blood transfusions and / or medicinal products containing immunoglobulins in the last 6 months, in particular antibodies to Rh0 (D) antigen; * persons who do not have acute and chronic cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, kidney, liver diseases, diseases of gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system; * the results of physical, instrumental and laboratory examination of patients should be within the norma or deviations should be regarded by the researcher as clinically insignificant; * the ability, according to the researcher, to comply with all the requirements of the study protocol.

Exclusion criteria
