Therapeutic indications:

ELOCTATE, Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant), Fc Fusion Protein, 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, - Routine prophylaxis to reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes. Limitation of Use ELOCTATE is not indicated for the treatment of von Willebrand disease. ELOCTATE is contraindicated in patients who have had life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions to ELOCTATE or other constituents of the product. [see Description (11 )] Risk Summary There are no studies of ELOCTATE use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in the indicated population is unknown; however, the background risk of major birth defects in the U.S. general population is 2-4% and of miscarriage is 15-20% of clinically recognized pregnancies.

indicated in adults and children with Hemophilia A (congenital Factor
VIII deficiency) for:
On-demand treatment and control of bleeding episodes

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
FOR INTRAVENOUS USE AFTER RECONSTITUTION ONLY.
Each vial of ELOCTATE is labeled with the amount of recombinant Factor
VIII in international units (IU or unit). One
unit per kilogram body weight will raise the Factor VIII level by 2%
(IU/dL). (2.1)
For on-demand treatment and control of bleeding episodes and
perioperative management, calculate dose using the
following formulas:
Estimated Increment of Factor VIII (IU/dL or % of normal) = [Total
Dose (IU)/body weight (kg)] x 2 (IU/dL per IU/kg)
OR
Required Dose (IU) = Body Weight (kg) x Desired Factor VIII Rise
(IU/dL or % of normal) x 0.5 (IU/kg per IU/dL)
For routine prophylaxis: 50 IU/kg every 4 days. Adjust dose based on
patient response with dosing in the range of 25-
65 IU/kg at 3-5 day intervals.
For routine prophylaxis in children less than 6 years of age: 50 IU/kg
twice weekly. Adjust dose based on patient
response with dosing in the range of 25-65 IU/kg at 3-5 day intervals.
More frequent or higher doses up to 80 IU/kg
may be required. (2.1)
