Switching hemophilia A patients to rVIII-SingleChain: The Iberian experience.

ABSTRACT: The real-world outcomes of lonoctocog alfa (rVIII-SingleChain), a long-acting factor VIII (FVIII) with a favorable safety and efficacy profile in trials, were assessed in patients with hemophilia A in Iberian (Spain and Portugal). This was a retrospective study involving patients switching to rVIII-SingleChain from other FVIIIs in 7 Spanish and Portuguese hospitals.

Twenty-nine patients (median age 25 years; severe hemophilia A, 37.9%) were recruited. Before switching, 12 were on prophylaxis and were followed-up for a median of 12 months. After switching, 17 received prophylaxis with rVIII-SingleChain and were followed-up for a median of 4
