Exposure-Response Relationship between VWF/FVIII Activity and Spontaneous Bleeding Events Following Recombinant VWF Prophylaxis in Severe VWD.

ABSTRACT: Background  Recombinant von Willebrand factor (rVWF, vonicog alfa, Takeda Pharmaceuticals USA) is indicated in adults diagnosed with von Willebrand disease (VWD). In this study, the exposure-response (ER) relationship between VWF activity (VWF:RCo) or factor VIII activity (FVIII:C) and spontaneous bleeding events (BEs) was evaluated in adults with severe VWD receiving rVWF prophylaxis for up to 1 year. Methods  This secondary analysis included 23 patients receiving rVWF prophylaxis in the open-label, phase 3 prophylaxis trial (NCT02973087). Population pharmacokinetic (PK) and PK/pharmacodynamic (PD) models were used to characterize VWF activity and endogenous FVIII:C, and PK/PD simulations were linked to spontaneous BEs to develop an ER model. Results  None of the five
