New Delhi: For super-specialisation in 72 DM and MCh courses across Institutes of National Importance (INI), the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) has notified the feeder qualifications for the INI SS January 2025 session.

Laying down the eligibility criteria in its prospectus for the Institute of National Importance Super-Speciality Entrance Test (INI SS) January 2025 session, the AIIMS detailed the prior/required or feeder qualifications for DM, MCh and MD Hospital administration courses. 

Institute of National Importance Super-Specialty Entrance Test (INI-SS)- The entrance test for admission into DM/M.Ch./MD Hospital Administration Courses at Institutes of National Importance (INI) for Medical Education namely, AIIMS-New Delhi and all new AIIMS, JIPMER-Puducherry, PGIMER-Chandigarh, NIMHANS-Bengaluru and Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences & Technology- Trivandrum is held twice in a year for January and July session of respective year. 

Feeder Qualifications:

All candidates who are vying for admission in DM and MCh courses at INIs are advised to take note of the following details: 

Hemophilia A and hemophilia B are genetic bleeding disorders caused by a dysfunction or deficiency of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) or IX (FIX), respectively. Patients with these hemophilias are unable to clot properly and may bleed for a longer time than normal after injury or surgery.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Hympavzi (marstacimab-hncq) for routine prophylaxis to prevent or reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with hemophilia A without factor VIII inhibitors or hemophilia B without factor IX inhibitors (neutralizing antibodies).

The FDA  has granted the approval of Hympavzi to Pfizer Inc. Earlier the FDA  had granted Hympavzi Orphan Drug designation for this application.

“Today’s approval of Hympavzi provides patients with hemophilia a new treatment option that is the first of its kind to work by targeting a protein in the blood clotting process,” said Ann Farrell, M.D., Director of the Division of Non-Malignant Hematology in the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. “This new type of treatment underscores the FDA’s commitment to advance the development of innovative, safe and effective therapies.”

Hympavzi is a new type of drug that, rather than replacing a clotting factor, works by reducing the amount, and therefore, the activity of, the naturally occurring anticoagulation protein called tissue factor pathway inhibitor. This increases the amount of thrombin, an enzyme that is critical in blood clotting, that is generated. This is expected to reduce or prevent the frequency of bleeding episodes.

Hympavzi’s approval is based on an open-label, multi-center study in 116 adult and pediatric male patients with either severe hemophilia A or severe hemophilia B, both without inhibitors. For the first six months of this study, patients received treatment with replacement factor either on-demand (33 patients) or prophylactically (83 patients). These patients then received Hympavzi prophylaxis for 12 months. The primary measure of efficacy of Hympavzi was the annualized bleeding rates of treated bleeds. In the patients receiving on-demand factor replacement during the first six months of the study, the estimated annualized bleeding rate was 38 compared to the estimated annualized bleeding rate during treatment with Hympavzi of 3.2, showing that Hympavzi was superior to on-demand factor replacement. In the initial six-month period during which patients received prophylactic factor replacement, the estimated annualized bleeding rate was 7.85 and was 5.08 during the subsequent 12 months on Hympavzi prophylaxis, showing that Hympavzi provided similar bleeding rates.

Hympavzi comes with warnings and precautions about circulating blood clots (thromboembolic events), hypersensitivity and embryofetal toxicity.

The most common side effects of Hympavzi are injection site reactions, headache and itching (pruritis).
