INDICATION
ELOCTATE is a recombinant DNA derived, antihemophilic factor indicated in adults and children with Hemophilia A (congenital Factor VIII deficiency) for: on-demand treatment and control of bleeding episodes, perioperative management of bleeding, and routine prophylaxis to reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes.

Limitation of Use

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS
ELOCTATE is contraindicated in patients who have had life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions to ELOCTATE or its excipients.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

  • Hypersensitivity reactions have been reported with ELOCTATE. Allergic-type hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported with Factor VIII replacement products. Immediately discontinue ELOCTATE and initiate appropriate treatment if hypersensitivity reactions occur.
  • Formation of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) to Factor VIII has been reported following administration of ELOCTATE. Patients using ELOCTATE should be monitored for the development of Factor VIII inhibitors. Clotting assays (e.g., one-stage) may be used to confirm that adequate Factor VIII levels have been achieved and maintained.
  • Hemophilic patients with cardiovascular risk factors or diseases may be at the same risk to develop cardiovascular events as non-hemophilic patients when clotting has been normalized by treatment with Factor VIII.
  • If a central venous access device (CVAD) is required, risk of CVAD-related complications including local infections, bacteremia, and catheter-site thrombosis should be considered.

ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most frequently occurring adverse reactions (incidence >0.5% of subjects) reported in previously treated patients (PTPs) clinical trials were arthralgia, malaise, myalgia, headache, and rash. The most frequently occurring adverse reactions (incidence ≥1.0% of subjects) reported in previously untreated patients (PUPs) clinical trials were Factor VIII inhibition, device-related thrombosis, and rash papular.
