This document addresses select agents for hereditary or congenital hemophilia A, also called factor VIII (FVIII) deficiency or classic
hemophilia and select agents for von Willebrand disease. Acquired hemophilia A (also called acquired factor VIII deficiency) is a rare
autoimmune disorder, and not a congenital disease. Acquired hemophilia A requires individualized treatment, which is addressed by
some of the agents in this document. This document does not address fibrin products, fibrin sealants and blood products provided by
blood banks. Bypassing agents (i.e., NovoSeven RT, SevenFact, and FEIBA) for those who develop antibodies or inhibitors to factor
products, and Stimate (desmopressin acetate) intranasal spray are discussed in separate documents.
Factor replacement treatments can be created from blood products (human plasma-derived) and others that are manufactured
(recombinant). Replacement therapy may be given on a routine, preventive basis which is also called prophylactic therapy. The infusion
of factor replacements given to stop a bleeding episode is called on-demand or episodic therapy. While the World Federation of
Hemophilia (WFH) (Srivastava 2020) does not place a preference between plasma-derived and recombinant products, the U.S.
National Hemophilia Federation (NHF 2020) recommends recombinant over plasma-derived due the possibility of virus transmission.
WFH states that the choice between the two classes of products must be made according to the availability, cost, and patient
preferences.

Hereditary hemophilia A is the most common type of hemophilia. Although it is usually inherited, about one third of cases are caused by
spontaneous mutations. Hemophilia A is related to mutations in the gene coding for coagulation Factor VIII, and it is four times more
common than hemophilia B (CDC 2014), the second most common hemophilia type.
The U.S. National Hemophilia Foundation (NHF) and the World Federation of Hemophilia (Srivastava 2020) both note there is a
relationship of bleeding severity to the clotting factor level. Both entities list “severe” hemophilia as a clotting factor level < 1 IU/dl or <
1% of normal. A “mild” bleeding severity is identified as a clotting factor level of 5-40 IU/dl or 5 to < 40% of normal. A bleeding episode
for individuals with mild risk includes severe bleeding with major trauma or surgery. Individuals with 1-5 IU/dl or 1-5% of normal are
considered “moderate” risk for occasional spontaneous bleeding and prolonged bleeding with minor trauma or surgery (Srivastava
2020).

Hemophilia severity:
• Severe hemophilia – Severe hemophilia is defined as < 1 percent factor activity, which corresponds to < 1 IU/dL.
• Moderate hemophilia – Moderate hemophilia is defined as a factor activity level ≥ 1 percent of normal and < 5 percent of
normal, corresponding to ≥ 1 and < 5 IU/dL.
• Mild hemophilia – Mild hemophilia is defined as a factor activity level ≥ 5 percent of normal and < 40 percent of normal (≥ 5
and < 40 IU/dL).
World Federation of Hemophilia 2020 Guidelines for treatment of hemophilia state that prophylaxis prevents bleeding and joint
destruction, and that prophylaxis should enable those with hemophilia to lead healthy and active lives. Moreover, the updated 2020
guidelines proposes that the definition of prophylaxis be based on outcomes rather than doses or timing of initiation, and treatment
regimens that take into account the hemophilic phenotype of the individual in addition to factor levels. However, more studies are
needed to determine if all individuals should remain on therapy as adults (that is, those with severe hemophilia vs. moderate or mild).
The WFH 2020 guidelines have been endorsed by several societies worldwide, including the U.S. NHF. Short-term prophylaxis (of 4 to
8 weeks) may interrupt the bleeding cycle and benefit individuals with repeated bleeding into target joints. Prophylaxis does not reverse
existing joint damage but reduces bleeding and may slow progression of joint damage. Prophylactic clotting factor administration is
recommended prior to the individual engaging in activities with higher risk of injury. Randomized trials of prophylactic therapy of
hemophilia have demonstrated a decreased incidence of arthropathy (Gringeri, 2011; Manco-Johnson, 2007).
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most common inherited bleeding disorder. It is caused by missing for defective von Willebrand
factor (VWF), a clotting protein. Unlike hemophilia, which very rarely occurs in females, von Willebrand disease can occur equally in
men and women. There are three main types of hereditary VWD – type 1 (most common), type 2, and type 3. The types are classified
by their level of VWF in the blood or by the presence or behavior of the VWF chains. VWD can be caused by an autoimmune disorder
or as a result of certain medications. This is called acquired von Willebrand disease. Those with VWD can experience frequent
nosebleeds, easy bruising, and excessive bleeding after during and after surgical procedures. Women may have heavy and long lasting
menstrual periods and hemorrhaging after childbirth (NHF).
Hemlibra has a black box warning for thrombotic microangiopathy and thromboembolism, especially when administered with activated
prothrombin complex concentrate (aPCC).
