Patient Experiences - Mickey


“ALTUVIIIO has protected me, and I have not had a [breakthrough] bleed since switching.”*     
 

A less frequent dosing regimen 

Before starting on ALTUVIIIO, I rarely infused, even though I was supposed to 3 times a week. I really wanted fewer infusions and longer protection. That would make it easier to stick to my regimen. And I felt excited but also anxious about the prospect of switching.      
 

Considering the switch 

When discussing making the switch with my doctor and care team, I didn’t feel swayed or pressured. They gave me all the facts and answered all my questions, and then some. If anyone was withholding anything, it was me. I never downplayed my condition or the severity of bleeds, but I wasn’t always honest about how often I infused.       
 

A smooth transition 

Once we made the decision to change, the transition to ALTUVIIIO was easy for me. My care team provided training and assistance when I switched to home care for my infusions. Since starting ALTUVIIIO, my doctor and I have been happy with the results.

 

Living with confidence  

I have not had a bleed since switching to ALTUVIIIO.* It’s been more than 700 days since my last bleed. ALTUVIIIO has provided bleed protection and a dosing regimen I have been able to stick to. And while I was willing to do everything before, I certainly feel confident enough to continue doing everything I want to do now.  
 

A good doctor-patient relationship 

Throughout the process, I’ve appreciated how knowledgeable my care team is about available medications and how they explain everything. It allowed me to make an informed decision and to be comfortable with it. I’d also encourage all doctors to get patients’ honest testimony and to ask if they have any concerns with their current treatment. That way, doctors can let their patients know if a different medication may be a good fit for them.

Important Safety Information

Contraindications

ALTUVIIIO is contraindicated in patients who have had severe hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, to the product or its excipients.

Warnings and Precautions
  • Allergic-type hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have occurred with ALTUVIIIO. Discontinue use of ALTUVIIIO if hypersensitivity reaction occurs and manage symptoms as appropriate.
  • Formation of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) to Factor VIII has been reported following administration of ALTUVIIIO. Monitor all patients for the development of Factor VIII inhibitors by appropriate clinical observations and laboratory tests.
  • If assessment of plasma Factor VIII activity is needed, it is recommended to use a validated one-stage clotting assay. The ALTUVIIIO Factor VIII activity level is overestimated by the chromogenic assay and a specific ellagic acid-based aPTT reagent in one-stage clotting assay by approximately 2.5-fold. If these assays are used, divide the result by 2.5 to approximate the patient's ALTUVIIIO Factor VIII activity level.
Adverse Reactions

The most common adverse reactions (>10% of subjects) reported in clinical trials were headache and arthralgia.
