We studied the differential increase in FVIIIc and FVIII R:Ag after the intravenous infusion of 0.30 micrograms/kg DDAVP in 20 obligate hemophilia A carriers and in 20 female controls. FVIIIc increased in carriers (59.5 +/- 23.1 to 137.5 +/- 45.9) and in controls (98.0 +/- 20.7 to 259.9 +/- 57.4) (P less than 0.001), but the magnitude of the FVIIIc increase in carriers was less than that in controls by 51.9% (P less than 0.001). FVIII R:Ag increased comparably in carriers (105.2 +/- 30.4 to 171.9 +/- 25.4) and controls (92.1 +/- 33.0 to 165.2 +/- 20.6). Using the post-DDAVP instead of the standard FVIIIc/FVIII R:Ag ratio, hemophilia carrier detection was increased from 85% (with 10% false positive and 20% false negative assignments) to 95% (with 5% false positive and 5% false negative assignments). Toxicity associated with DDAVP infusion correlated linearly with doses greater than 10.5 +/- 1.3 micrograms/m2 (P less than 0.02) and with total doses greater than 17.0 +/- 4.5 micrograms (P less than 0.02). The use of DDAVP improves carrier detection in factor VIII-deficient hemophilia.
