Hypothetical patient and scenario
with an established safety profile
In XTEND-1 and XTEND- Kids, people taking ALTUVIIIO had:
Zero inhibitors
What are inhibitors? Over time, the body can develop antibodies against Factor VIII, which can prevent treatment from working. People taking ALTUVIIIO had no inhibitors during the clinical trial.
Zero serious allergic reactions
Although no inhibitors were found, and no serious allergic reactions occurred in clinical studies, inhibitors and serious allergic reactions are possible with ALTUVIIIO.
In 159 people taking ALTUVIIIO in the XTEND-1 study:
21% of people had headache (33 people)
16% of people had joint pain (26 people)
6% of people had back pain (9 people)
In 67 children taking ALTUVIIIO in the ongoing XTEND-Kids study:
1% of children had headache (1 child)
