The timing of introducing complementary feeding affects nutritional status and children's health. The aim of this study was to determine sociodemographic and birth-related factors associated with the age of introducing complementary foods. This cross-sectional study investigated parents ( = 5815) of children aged 12-36 months from Poland ( = 4065) and Austria ( = 1750) using a single online questionnaire.

Nuwiq® is produced in a human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK293F), which ensures human-specific post-translational protein processing. Nuwiq® was evaluated in seven prospective clinical studies in 201 adult and pediatric previously treated patients (PTPs) with severe hemophilia A.

Aim: Aims were to evaluate relationships of endogenous thrombin potential (ETP) and FVIII:C with occurrence of clinical bleeding.
Methods: GENA-21 was a prospective, open-label, phase IIIb study investigating the safety and efficacy of Nuwiq (human-cl rhFVIII) in previously treated adults with severe haemophilia A.
Introduction: Nuwiq (human-cl rhFVIII, simoctocog alfa) is a 4th generation recombinant human FVIII, without chemical modification or fusion with any other protein, produced in a human cell line.
Aim/methods: This study (GENA-13) was an extension of the GENA-03 study in which previously treated children aged 2-12 years with severe haemophilia A received Nuwiq prophylaxis for ≥6 months. GENA-13 examined long-term tolerability, immunogenicity and efficacy of Nuwiq prophylaxis in children.
