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.
Interventions
prevention of Rh-sensitization in pregnant women in the antenatal and postnatal period in routine clinical practice. The study drug is administered twice at a dose of 300 mcg - at 28 weeks of gestation and within 72 hours after delivery.
