Lentiviral vector platform for production of bioengineered recombinant coagulation factor VIII.

Patients with hemophilia A present with spontaneous and sometimes life-threatening bleeding episodes that are treated using blood coagulation factor VIII (fVIII) replacement products. Although effective, these products have limited availability worldwide due to supply limitations and product costs, which stem largely from manufacturing complexity. Current mammalian cell culture manufacturing systems yield around 100 µg/l of recombinant fVIII, with a per cell production rate of 0.
