Introduction: BAY 94-9027 (damoctocog alfa pegol; an extended half-life PEGylated recombinant factor VIII [FVIII]) demonstrated efficacy and safety in previously treated paediatric patients (PTPs) aged <12 years with severe haemophilia A in the PROTECT VIII Kids study (NCT01775618).

Aim: To evaluate the long-term safety of BAY 94-9027 in PTPs aged <12 years at enrolment.

Methods: In the PROTECT VIII Kids study, boys <12 years with severe haemophilia A were enrolled in two age cohorts (6-<12 years and <6 years) and treated prophylactically twice weekly, every 5 days or every 7 days, with BAY 94-9027 for ≥50 exposure days (EDs). Patients who had completed ≥50 EDs and ≥6 months in the main study or 12-week safety expansion study were eligible to participate in the extension. Primary safety variable was frequency of inhibitor development; main efficacy variable was annualised bleeding rate (ABR).

Results: Of 73 PTPs from the main/expansion studies, 59 (81%) entered the extension phase for a median (range) duration of 5.0 (0.4-5.9) years. Overall, 39 patients completed ≥5 years of treatment. No patients developed FVIII inhibitors/anti-PEG antibodies, and two patients aged <6 years discontinued. Median ABR for total bleeds was 1.5 (<6 years) and 1.9 (6-<12 years). Total ABR improved in the extension vs. the main study. In the last 12 months of treatment, median spontaneous ABR was 0.0 in both age groups.

Conclusions: BAY 94-9027 showed long-term safety and efficacy for the prevention and treatment of bleeds in younger and older paediatric patients with severe haemophilia A.

Objectives: Health information for 17 109 people living with hemophilia A (PLwHA) is contained within the ATHNdataset. We aimed to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of damoctocog alfa pegol (BAY 94-9027, Jivi®) for hemophilia A.

Methods: The ATHNdataset was queried for PLwHA receiving damoctocog alfa pegol between January 1, 2010 and April 30, 2022.

Damoctocog alfa pegol (BAY 94-9027, Jivi), is a site-specifically PEGylated, extended half-life recombinant factor VIII (FVIII) that is approved in several European and non-European countries for on-demand treatment and prophylaxis of bleeding in previously treated patients aged ≥ 12 years with hemophilia A. Reliable measurements can be obtained using most one-stage and chromogenic FVIII assays over a wide concentration range. The efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of damoctocog alfa pegol have been studied extensively in the PROTECT VIII clinical trials, and its long-term safety and effectiveness profile is continuing to build through observational and interventional real-world studies.

Introduction: The phase 2/3 PROTECT VIII study demonstrated long-term efficacy and safety of damoctocog alfa pegol (BAY 94-9027; Jivi®), a B-domain-deleted recombinant factor VIII (FVIII), site-specifically PEGylated to improve its pharmacokinetic profile. We report a post hoc assessment of bleeding and safety outcomes in the subgroup of patients, aged 12-<18 years at enrolment.

Method: PROTECT VIII was a multicentre, open-label study of previously treated males aged 12-65 years with severe haemophilia A (FVIII <1%).

Introduction: Damoctocog alfa pegol (BAY 94-9027, Jivi®) is an extended half-life recombinant factor (F)VIII replacement, indicated for the treatment of haemophilia A in patients aged ≥12 years. Following introduction of damoctocog alfa pegol in Canada in 2020, there have been no reports on routine clinical effectiveness and satisfaction, when switching from a previous FVIII product in Canada.

Aim: To report changes in pharmacokinetics, effectiveness, utilization and patient satisfaction when switching to damoctocog alfa pegol prophylaxis from previous standard half-life octocog alfa (BAY 81-8973, Kovaltry®) treatment.

Introduction: Damoctocog alfa pegol (BAY 94-9027, Jivi ) is an approved extended half-life factor VIII (FVIII) for treatment of previously treated patients with haemophilia A aged ≥12 years. We report the final results of an interventional, post-marketing study of damoctocog alfa pegol prophylaxis in patients with severe haemophilia A.

Methods: In this open-label, interventional, post-marketing, phase 4 trial (NCT04085458), previously FVIII-treated patients with severe haemophilia A aged ≥18 years received damoctocog alfa pegol for ≥100 exposure days (EDs).
