Von Willebrand Disease
Brief summary
This is an open-label study to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and safety of a von Willebrand Factor/Factor VIII (VWF/FVIII), Biostate, in children with Von Willebrand disease (VWD) in whom treatment with a VWF product is required for prophylactic therapy, haemostatic control during surgery, or control of a non-surgical, spontaneous, or traumatic bleeding event.
Interventions
PK component: Single bolus infusion of 80 IU VWF:RCo/kg administered intravenously on Day 1, and approximately Day 180 in Type 3 VWD subjects only. Efficacy component: Repeated bolus doses over 12 months as required to manage VWD condition.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Male and female subjects between 0 and \<12 years of age * Diagnosed with VWD Type 1, 2A, or 3 * Desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) treatment is ineffective, contraindicated, or not available for subject * von Willebrand factor: ristocetin cofactor (VWF:RCo) is \<20% at screening or the subject has a history of VWF:RCo \<10% * Evidence of vaccination against hepatitis A and B or presence of antibodies against hepatitis A and B due to either a previous infection or prior immunization * Written informed consent given
Exclusion criteria
* Active bleeding immediately prior to initial PK period * Received treatment with DDAVP or a VWF concentrate product for their VWD in the 5 days prior to their first study treatment * Have received aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) within 7 days of commencing the PK period. * Known history or suspicion of having VWF or FVIII inhibitors * Acute or chronic medical condition, other than VWD, which may affect the conduct of the study * Known or suspected hypersensitivity or previous evidence of severe side effects to other FVIII/VWF concentrates * Participation in a clinical study or use of an investigational compound in another study in the 3 months preceding study start * Unwillingness and/or inability to comply with the study requirements
