Summary

Factor IX-antibody-neutralizing material has been estimated in plasmas of patients with acquired factor IX deficiency. In patients with liver cirrhosis and patients who had been treated with L-Asparaginase the plasma neutralized an amount of antibody expected from the biological activity. In patients treated with phenprocoumon and in one patient with biliary obstruction an excess of factor IX-antibody neutralizing material was found. This inactive factor IX probably represents a precursor molecule of factor IX.
