ALTUVIIIO has an established safety profile1
ALTUVIIIO is contraindicated in patients who have had severe hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, to the product or its components.
Factor VIII inhibitors1
- Inhibitor development is a known risk inherent of factor replacement therapies, including ALTUVIIIO
- Neutralizing anti-Factor VIll antibodies (inhibitors) have been reported following administration of ALTUVIIIO in the postmarketing setting*
- No inhibitors were reported in the Phase 3 trials
- Monitor all patients for the development of Factor VIII inhibitors by appropriate clinical observations and laboratory tests
Hypersensitivity reactions1
- Allergic-type hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported with ALTUVIIIO in the postmarketing setting*
- No allergic-type hypersensitivity reactions were reported in the Phase 3 trials
- Discontinue ALTUVIIIO if hypersensitivity reaction occurs and manage symptoms as appropriate
*In the postmarketing setting, reports are derived from a population of uncertain size; therefore, it is not always possible to reliably estimate frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
