|
|
Even if a CHAwI patient treats with Hemlibra, MASAC recommends that breakthrough bleeds be treated immediately with an rFVIIa such as NovoSeven® RT.1
|
|
|
•
|
rFVIIa should be the 1st option
|
|
•
|
Emicizumab alone should not be presumed as adequate for major procedures
|
|
|
•
|
Use of pd-aPCC should be avoided if possible
|
|
•
|
rFVIIa should be provided to patients pre- and post-operatively at the discretion of the treating physician

| Selected Important Safety Information |
| WARNING: THROMBOSIS |
| • |
Serious arterial and venous thrombotic events following administration
of NovoSeven® RT have been reported
|
|
| • |
Discuss the risks and explain the signs and symptoms of thrombotic and
thromboembolic events to patients who will receive
NovoSeven® RT
|
|
| • |
Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of activation of the coagulation
system and for thrombosis
|
|
|
| Warnings and Precautions |
| • |
Serious arterial and venous thrombotic events have been reported in clinical trials
and postmarketing surveillance
|
|
| • |
Patients with congenital hemophilia receiving concomitant treatment with aPCCs
(activated prothrombin complex concentrates), older patients particularly with
acquired hemophilia and receiving other hemostatic agents, and patients with a
history of cardiac and vascular disease may have an increased risk of developing
thrombotic events

|
| Why Your Patients Should Have NovoSeven® RT on Hand |
|
NovoSeven® RT is the only rFVIIa that has published clinical study experience with Hemlibra® for patients with CHAwI. The safety of using NovoSeven® RT in conjunction with Hemlibra was analyzed in the HAVEN clinical trials program:2,a
|
CHAwI patients studied in HAVEN 1, 2, and 4
|
Bleeds treated with NovoSeven® RT only in HAVEN 1
|
SAEs, TMAs, or TEs with NovoSeven® RT alone in HAVEN 1, 2, and 4
|
|
|
SAE=serious adverse event; TMA=thrombotic microangiopathy; TE=thrombotic event
|
|
aThe analysis included bleeding episodes in the HAVEN 1, HAVEN 2, and HAVEN 4 clinical trials for which patients with CHAwI on emicizumab prophylaxis (at the labeled dose) used rFVIIa. Initial individual dosing with rFVIIa, dosing intervals, and cumulative dosing were evaluated. All adverse events reported in each of the 3 trials, including available narratives, were assessed.

|
| Indications and Usage |
|
NovoSeven® RT (coagulation Factor VIIa, recombinant) is a coagulation factor
indicated for:
|
| • |
Treatment of bleeding episodes and perioperative management in adults and children
with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors, congenital Factor VII (FVII)
deficiency, and Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia with refractoriness to platelet
transfusions, with or without antibodies to platelets
|
|
| • |
Treatment of bleeding episodes and perioperative management in adults with acquired
hemophilia
|
|
| Important Safety Information (cont’d) |
| Warnings and Precautions |
| • |
Hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, can occur with
NovoSeven® RT. Patients with a known hypersensitivity to mouse,
hamster, or bovine proteins may be at a higher risk of hypersensitivity reactions.
Discontinue infusion and administer appropriate treatment when hypersensitivity
reactions occur
|
|
| • |
Factor VII deficient patients should be monitored for prothrombin time (PT) and
factor VII coagulant activity (FVII:C). If FVII:C fails to reach the expected level,
or PT is not corrected, or bleeding is not controlled after treatment with the
recommended doses, antibody formation may be suspected and analysis for antibodies
should be performed
|
|
| • |
Laboratory coagulation parameters (PT/INR, aPTT, FVII:C) have shown no direct
correlation to achieving hemostasis
|
|
| Adverse Reactions |
| • |
The most common and serious adverse reactions in clinical trials are thrombotic
events. Thrombotic adverse reactions following the administration of
NovoSeven® RT in clinical trials occurred in 4% of patients with
acquired hemophilia and 0.2% of bleeding episodes in patients with congenital
hemophilia
|
|
| Drug Interactions |
| • |
Thrombosis may occur if NovoSeven® RT is administered
concomitantly with Coagulation Factor XIII
