Why NovoSeven® RT?
Why NovoSeven® RT?
aFor people with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors.
Get fast bleed control—even for the most life-threatening bleeds.b
A total of 227 bleeding episodes were studied. All bleeds refers to joint, target joint, skin, and mucous membrane, muscle, and other bleeding episodes.
In all severe
bleeding episodesd
A total of 518 severe bleeding episodes were studied. Bleeds included muscle, ENT (ear, nose, throat), CNS, joint, and internal/retroperitoneal bleeds.
In children within a trial with patients with hemophilia A and B with and without inhibitors
20 children younger than 12 and 8 children ages 12 to 16 were studied. Bleeds included joint, muscle, and mucous membrane bleeds.
bIn compassionate use situations including surgery, central nervous system hemorrhages, severe intra-abdominal bleeding, and other life-threatening bleeding episodes.
cProven effective in the adept™2 study, one of the largest clinical trials conducted in patients with hemophilia with inhibitors. The adept™2 study included people with people with hemophilia A with inhibitors (n=66) and people with hemophilia B with inhibitors (n=6). Of those who participated in the study, 57 were treated with NovoSeven® RT and 67 were treated with vatreptacog.
dData shown from compassionate use program and 2 clinical studies including patients with hemophilia A or B with or without inhibitors and acquired hemophilia.

Established safety profile that comes from experience.e
In clinical trials of NovoSeven® RT, a low rate of blood clots (0.2% of bleeds) was reported in patients with congenital hemophilia.f The most common and serious side effects are blood clots. It’s the first FDA-approved recombinant bypassing agent for hemophilia with inhibitors. It’s the only FDA-approved bypassing agent for all ages in people with hemophilia with inhibitors.

What if I need surgery or a procedure?
We understand that you have concerns about controlling bleeds if you ever need surgery or a procedure. The good news is that NovoSeven® RT is approved by the FDA for treating people with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors during and after surgery and procedures.
In fact, in a clinical trial, NovoSeven® RT was proven to effectively control bleeds throughout the surgical process. Here are the results:
Percentage of patients with satisfactory bleed control:
The postoperative period: essential to surgical success

About hemophilia B with inhibitors.
What is hemophilia B?
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder that prevents blood from clotting properly. There are a number of proteins in blood, called “clotting factors,” that work together in a series of steps to form blood clots. People with hemophilia B are missing factor IX. Hemophilia mostly affects men, but it can also affect women. And although many people inherit the condition, about 1/3 of people with hemophilia don’t have a family history of it.
What are inhibitors?
Inhibitors are a complication of hemophilia. People with severe hemophilia A or B are usually treated by replacing the missing factor VIII or factor IX through infusion. For some people, however, this treatment does not work. Their bodies react as though the treatment is an invader and their immune system develops antibodies, or “inhibitors,” that attack and neutralize the factor VIII or IX. When this happens, the factor is not able to stop the bleeding.
