  1. Dosage/Administration 1-5

Alphanate

Indication

Dose

Control and prevention of bleeding

Congenital Hemophilia A

The expected in vivo peak increase in FVIII level expressed as IU/dL (or % normal) can be estimated using the following formulas:

  • Dosage (international units) = body weight (kg) x desired FVIII rise (IU/dL or % normal) x 0.5 (IU/kg per IU/dL) OR
  • IU/dL (or % of normal) = [Total Dose (IU)/body weight (kg)] x 2

Minor

FVIII:C levels should be brought to 30% of normal (15 IU FVIII/kg twice daily) until hemorrhage stops and healing has been achieved (1-2 days).

Moderate

FVIII:C levels should be brought to 50% of normal (25 IU FVIII/kg twice daily) until healing has been achieved (2-7 days, on average).

Major

FVIII:C levels should be brought to 80-100% of normal (40-50 IU FVIII/kg twice daily) for at least 3-5 days. Following this treatment period, FVIII levels should be maintained at 50% (25 IU FVIII/kg twice daily) until healing has been achieved. Major hemorrhages may require treatment for up to 10 days. Intracranial hemorrhages may require prophylaxis therapy for up to 6 months.

Perioperative management

Congenital Hemophilia A

The expected in vivo peak increase in FVIII level expressed as IU/dL (or % normal) can be estimated using the following formulas:

  • Dosage (international units) = body weight (kg) x desired FVIII rise (IU/dL or % normal) x 0.5 (IU/kg per IU/dL) OR
  • IU/dL (or % of normal) = [Total Dose (IU)/body weight (kg)] x 2

Prior to surgery, the levels of FVIII:C should be brought to 80-100% of normal (40-50 IU FVIII/kg). For the next 7-10 days after surgery, or until healing has been achieved, the patient should be maintained at 60-100% of normal (30-50 IU FVIII/kg twice daily).

Control and prevention of bleeding and perioperative management

von Willebrand Disease (VWD)

The ratio of VWF:RCo to FVIII in Alphanate varies by lot, so with each new lot, check the IU VWF:RCo/Vial to ensure accurate dosing.

Minor

Pre-operative/pre-procedure dose (Target FVIII:C Activity – 40-50 IU/dL):

Adults: 60 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight.

Pediatrics: 75 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight.

Maintenance dose (Target FVIII:C Activity – 40-50 IU/dL):

Adults: 40-60 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight at 8 to 12 hour intervals as clinically needed for 1-3 days.

Pediatrics: 50-75 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight at 8 to 12 hour intervals as clinically needed for 1-3 days.

Major

Pre-operative/pre-procedure dose (Target FVIII:C Activity – 100 IU/dL):

Adults: 60 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight.

Pediatrics: 75 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight.

Maintenance dose (Target FVIII:C Activity – 100 IU/dL):

Adults: 40-60 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight at 8 to 12 hour intervals as clinically needed for at least 3-7 days.

Pediatrics: 50-75 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight at 8 to 12 hour intervals as clinically needed for at least 3-7 days.

Humate-P

Indication

Dose

Control and prevention of bleeding

Congenital Hemophilia A

One International Unit (IU) of Factor VIII (FVIII) activity per kg body weight will increase the circulating FVIII level by approximately 2.0 International Units (IU)/dL.

Minor

  • Loading Dose: Administer 15 IU FVIII:C/kg intravenously to achieve a FVIII:C plasma level of approximately 30% of normal; one infusion may be sufficient. If needed, half of the loading dose may be given once or twice daily for 1-2 days.

Moderate

  • Loading Dose: Administer 25 IU FVIII:C/kg intravenously to achieve a FVIII:C plasma level of approximately 50% of normal, followed by 15 IU FVIII:C/kg every 8-12 hours for the first 1-2 days to maintain the FVIII:C plasma level at 30% of normal. Continue the same dose once or twice daily for up to 7 days or until adequate wound healing is achieved.

Major

  • Initially administer 40-50 IU FVIII:C/kg intravenously, followed by 20-25 IU FVIII:C/kg every 8 hours to maintain the FVIII:C plasma level at 80-100% of normal for 7 days. Continue the same dose once or twice daily for another 7 days to maintain the FVIII:C level at 30-50% of normal.

Control and prevention of bleeding

von Willebrand Disease (VWD)

Administer 40-80 IU VWF:RCo intravenously (corresponding to 17 to 33 IU FVIII in Humate-P) per kg body weight every 8-12 hours. Adjust the dosage based on the extent and location of bleeding. Administer repeat doses as long as needed based on monitoring of appropriate clinical and laboratory measures.

Perioperative management

von Willebrand Disease (VWD)

Loading Doses (to be administered 1 to 2 hours before surgery)

Major

  • VWF:RCo Target Peak Plasma Level: 100 IU/dL
  • FVIII:C Target Peak Plasma Level: 80-100 IU/dL

Calculation of Loading Dose:

  • (Target peak plasma VWF:RCo level – baseline plasma VWF:RCo level) x Body wt (kg)) / IVR (in vivo recovery)
  • If the IVR is not available, assume an IVR of 2.0 IU/dL per IU/kg and calculate the loading dose as follows: (100 – baseline plasma VWF:RCo) x Body Weight (kg)/2.0

Minor

  • VWF:RCo Target Peak Plasma Level: 50-60 IU/dL
  • FVIII:C Target Peak Plasma Level: 40-50 IU/dL

Calculation of Loading Dose:

  • (Target peak plasma VWF:RCo level – baseline plasma VWF:RCo level) x Body weight (kg) / IVR (in vivo recovery)

Emergency

  • VWF:RCo Target Peak Plasma Level: 100 IU/dL
  • FVIII:C Target Peak Plasma Level: 80-100 IU/dL

Administer a dose of 50-60 IU VWF:RCo/kg body weight.

Maintenance Doses

The initial maintenance dose of Humate-P for the prevention of excessive bleeding during and after surgery should be half of the loading dose, irrespective of additional dosing required to meet FVIII:C targets. Subsequent maintenance doses should be based on the patient’s VWF:RCo and FVIII levels.

     Wilate

Indication

Dose

Control of bleeding episodes

von Willebrand Disease (VWD)

Calculation of the required dose of VWF:RCo is based on the empirical finding that 1 IU VWF:RCo per kg body weight raises the plasma VWF activity by approximately 2% of normal activity or 2 IU/dL, using the following formula:

  • Required IU = body weight (kg) x desired VWF:RCo rise (%) (IU/dL) x 0.5 (IU/kg per IU/dL)
  • Expected VWF:RCo rise (% of normal) = 2 x administered IU / body weight (kg)

Adjust the dosage and frequency of administration to the clinical effectiveness in the individual patient.

The ratio between VWF:RCo and FVIII activities in Wilate is approximately 1:1. The dosage should be adjusted according to the extent and location of the bleeding.

Minor

  • Loading Dose: Administer 20-40 IU/kg intravenously
  • Maintenance Dose: Administer 20-30 IU/kg intravenously every 12-24 hours as need for up to 3 days. VWF:RCo and FVIII activity trough levels > 30%.

Major

  • Loading Dose: Administer 40-60 IU/kg intravenously
  • Maintenance Dose: Administer 20-40 IU/kg intravenously every 12-24 hours as needed for up to 5-7 days. VWF:RCo and FVIII activity trough levels > 50%.

Perioperative management of bleeding

von Willebrand Disease (VWD)

Calculation of the required dose of VWF:RCo is based on the empirical finding that 1 IU VWF:RCo per kg body weight raises the plasma VWF activity by approximately 2% of normal activity or 2 IU/dL, using the following formula:

  • Required IU = body weight (kg) x desired VWF:RCo rise (%) (IU/dL) x 0.5 (IU/kg per IU/dL)
  • Expected VWF:RCo rise (% of normal) = 2 x administered IU / body weight (kg)

Adjust the dosage and frequency of administration to the clinical effectiveness in the individual patient.

Minor

  • Loading Dose: Administer 30-60 IU/kg intravenously
  • Maintenance Dose: Administer 15-30 IU/kg intravenously or half of the loading dose every 12-24 hours until wound healing achieved, up to 3 days. VWF:RCo trough levels > 30% and peak levels 50%.

Major

  • Loading Dose: Administer 40-60 IU/kg intravenously
  • Maintenance Dose: Administer 20-40 IU/kg intravenously or half the loading dose every 12-24 hours (at least 2 doses within the first 24 hours after the start of surgery) until wound healing achieved, up to 6 days or more. VWF:RCo trough levels > 50% and peak levels 100%.

Routine Prophylaxis

von Willebrand Disease (VWD)

Calculation of the required dose of VWF:RCo is based on the empirical finding that 1 IU VWF:RCo per kg body weight raises the plasma VWF activity by approximately 2% of normal activity or 2 IU/dL, using the following formula:

  • Required IU = body weight (kg) x desired VWF:RCo rise (%) (IU/dL) x 0.5 (IU/kg per IU/dL)
  • Expected VWF:RCo rise (% of normal) = 2 x administered IU / body weight (kg)

Adjust the dosage and frequency of administration to the clinical effectiveness in the individual patient.

  • Adults and pediatric patients at least 6 years of age: Administer 20-40 IU/kg intravenously 2 or 3 times per week

Control and prevention of bleeding/Routine Prophylaxis

Congenital Hemophilia A

Calculation of the required dose of Factor VIII is based on the empirical finding that 1 IU Factor VIII per kg body weight raises the plasma Factor VIII activity by approximately 2% of normal activity or 2 IU/dL when assessed using the one stage clotting assay. Use the following formula to determine the required dose:

  • Required IU = body weight (kg) x desired Factor VIII rise (%) (IU/dL) x 0.5 (IU/kg per IU/dL)
  • Expected Factor VIII rise (% of normal) = 2 x administered IU / body weight (kg)

Dose and duration of therapy depend on the patient’s weight, type, and severity of hemorrhage, FVIII level, and presence of inhibitors. Titrate dose and frequency to the patient’s clinical response, individual needs, severity of deficiency, severity of hemorrhage, desired FVIII level, and presence of inhibitor, and the patient’s clinical condition. Patients may vary in their pharmacokinetic (e.g., half-life, in vivo recovery) and clinical responses to Wilate.
