  • Research summary

    This is a prospective, multinational, non-interventional post-authorisation study designed to assess the long-term immunogenicity, safety, and efficacy of Human-cl rhFVIII in patients with haemophilia A treated in routine clinical practice. In brief, 200 male patients of any age with haemophilia (FVIII:C ≤ 2%) will be treated and followed for at least 100 exposure days (EDs). Of the 200 enrolled patients, at least 100 patients should have severe haemophilia A (FVIII:C < 1%). The overall duration of this study will be approximately 4 years.

    The objectives of this study are:
    • To assess the long-term immunogenicity and safety of Human-cl rhFVIII in treating or preventing bleeding episodes (BEs) in patients with Haemophilia A.
    • To assess the long-term efficacy of Human-cl rhFVIII in treating or preventing BEs in patients with Haemophilia A.
    The study will be performed in countries from across the EU and possibly other countries where Human-cl rhFVIII is intended to be marketed.
