Summary

This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, Japan, and North and South America. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of activated recombinant human factor VII analogue (vatreptocog alfa (activated)) in haemophilia patients with inhibitors.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Minimum of 2 joint bleeds (haemarthroses of ankles, knees, or elbows) requiring haemostatic drug treatment within the previous 6 months, or at least 4 joint bleeds (hemarthroses of ankles, knees, or elbows) requiring haemostatic drug treatment within the previous 12 months at trial entry

Exclusion Criteria

  • Known allergy to rFVIIa, and/or suspected allergy to trial product
  • Platelet count lower than 50, 000 mm^3 based on medical records at trial entry (visit 1)
  • Any clinical signs or history of thromboembolic events
  • Advanced atherosclerotic disease
  • Severe liver disease based on medical records within the past 12 months at trial entry (Visit 1), as defined by alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) above 3 times the upper limit of normal reference range
  • Known active pseudo tumours (documented bleeding requiring treatment within the last 3 months
  • Subject had any (major) surgical procedure in the 30 days prior to screening into the trial. a. Catheter, ports and dental extractions do not count as surgeries and will not exclude the subject
