Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Severe hemophilia A (FVIII:C </=1%)
  • No history of FVIII inhibitor formation and no current evidence of inhibitor antibody (Bethesda Assay < 0.6 BU)
  • Elective major surgery requiring at least 6 days of rFVIII-FS therapy
  • Subjects should have been previously treated with FVIII concentrates for at least 150 exposure days. Previous treatment could have been with any type of rFVIII or with plasma-derived FVIII concentrate or cryoprecipitate

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Abnormal renal function (serum creatinine >1.3 mg/dL)
  • Any treatments, which may change the clearance of FVIII (dialysis, plasma exchange)
  • Anemia (hemoglobin <11 g/dL)
  • Known AIDS (HIV seropositive patients may be enrolled)
  • Active liver disease (transaminases > 5 times the upper limit of normal)
  • History of severe reaction to FVIII concentrates
  • Interferon treatment within the last 3 months
  • Thrombocytopenia (< 100,000 platelets/mm3) or other known hematological/bleeding problems other than hemophilia A
  • Intake of other investigational drugs within 1 month prior to study entry
  • Need for pre-medication for FVIII infusions (e.g. antihistamines)
  • Diastolic blood pressure >100 mm/Hg, which could not be controlled with antihypertensive medications
