For U.S. healthcare professionals only

In the hemophilia A
community, no two patients are the same

When finding a treatment for hemophilia A, your patients' individual needs as well as their lives outside the clinic should be taken into account.1

There are many characteristics that make each patient different1,2:

  • Physical activity and lifestyle
  • Bleeding phenotype
  • Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile
  • Infusion dose and frequency
  • Adherence and prophylaxis
  • Annualized bleed rate (ABR) and ABR for joint bleeds
  • Personal goals
  • Baseline characteristics
    (eg, age, weight)

Living with hemophilia A will always be an undeniable part of their reality—both the welcome and unwelcome moments. Your patients need treatment options that can help them navigate the many complexities of real life with hemophilia A.

Hear from a peer about the ADVATE active patient type

Watch Jonathan C. Roberts, MD, discuss ADVATE as a personalized treatment option that can help protect against bleeds for his patient living with hemophilia A who has an active lifestyle. Learn more about the active patient type with a helpful brochure available here.

Hear from a peer about the ADVATE high-risk bleed patient type

Watch Mark Reding, MD, discuss ADVATE as a prophylactic treatment option for his Hemophilia A patient who is at a high risk for bleeds. Learn more about high-risk bleed patients in a helpful brochure available here.

Selected Important Risk Information

Warnings & Precautions

Neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) have been reported following administration of ADVATE predominantly in previously untreated patients (PUPs) and previously minimally treated patients (MTPs). Monitor all patients for the development of factor VIII inhibitors by appropriate clinical observation and laboratory testing. If expected plasma factor VIII activity levels are not attained, or if bleeding is not controlled with an expected dose, perform an assay that measures factor VIII inhibitor concentration.

Please see additional detailed important risk information below.

ADVATE has 15+ years of experience treating hemophilia A in the real world3

ADVATE is a third-generation, full-length molecule, similar to the factor VIII that occurs naturally in the body.3,4

Committed to advancing hemophilia A care

In 2003, ADVATE became the first recombinant factor VIII treatment free of blood-based additives. Since then, TAKEDA has made advancements with flexible dosing options, reconstitution with BAXJECT® system, and the introduction of myPKFiT® for PK-guided personalized dosing.3,8
