Requirements for managing surgery

In people with von Willebrand disease

Prophylaxis with VWF complex*

Normalization of both VWF and FVIII to ensure normal hemostasis1

Avoidance of FVIII accumulation with repeated dosing of VWF/FVIII, which may increase risk of thrombosis5

Close monitoring of VWF and FVIII levels to avoid under- or over-dosing6

VWF and FVIII in wilate®

Show parallel decay curves, and no FVIII accumulation has been reported in clinical studies, even with repeat dosing6*

Parallel decay of VWF:RCo and FVIII:C

May simplify dosing and monitoring

*wilate® is indicated in children and adults with von Willebrand disease for perioperative management of bleeding.

Indications and Important Safety Information for wilate® [von Willebrand Factor/Coagulation Factor VIII Complex (Human)].

Please see wilate® full Prescribing Information.

Indication

wilate® is a von Willebrand Factor/Coagulation Factor VIII Complex (Human) indicated in adult and pediatric patients with von Willebrand disease for on-demand treatment and control of bleeding episodes; for perioperative management of bleeding; and for routine prophylaxis to reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes. wilate® is also indicated in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older with hemophilia A for on-demand treatment and control of bleeding episodes; and for routine prophylaxis to reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes.

Contraindications

Do not use in patients with known hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylactic or severe systemic reaction, to human plasma-derived products, any ingredient in the formulation, or components of the container.

Warnings and Precautions

  • Anaphylaxis and severe hypersensitivity reactions are possible
  • Thromboembolic events may occur. Monitor plasma levels of FVIII activity
  • Neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) to VWF and Factor VIII have occurred following administration of wilate®. Test for neutralizing antibodies if plasma VWF and/or Factor VIII level fail to increase as expected or if bleeding is not controlled after wilate® administration
  • wilate® is made from human plasma and carries the risk of transmitting infectious agents

Adverse Reactions

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 1%) in clinical trials on VWD were hypersensitivity reactions, urticaria, chest discomfort, and dizziness. The most common adverse reaction (≥ 1%) in clinical trials in hemophilia A was pyrexia (fever).
