BACKGROUND
B-domain-deleted recombinant factor VIII (BDDrFVIII) was developed when the B-domain was found to be redundant for maintaining haemostasis. This allows formulation of the final product without albumin added as a stabilizer.
METHODS
Three multicentre clinical studies and one pharmacokinetic study were conducted in 218 patients to evaluate the safety and haemostatic efficacy of BDDrFVIII.
RESULTS
Previously treated patients (n = 113; median duration, 1711 days; median exposure days, 385; total 98,096,287 IU infused) rated 97-99% of all infusions as good or excellent efficacy. FVIII inhibitor was noted in one patient in the previously treated patient cohort after 113 exposure days. Among 101 previously untreated...
CONCLUSIONS
The results of these clinical studies indicate that BBDrFVIII is safe and effective and has haemostatic activity similar to that of full-length FVIII concentrates.Short communication: effectiveness of sample duplication to control error in ruminant digestion studies.
