Congenital Bleeding Disorder, Congenital FXIII Deficiency
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is conducted globally. The aim of this observational study is to investigate the incidence of specific adverse drug reactions associated with the use of recombinant factor XIII (NovoThirteen®) in patients with congenital FXIII A-subunit deficiency (congenital FXIII deficiency), comprising FXIII antibodies, allergic reactions, embolic and thrombotic events and lack of therapeutic effect. The study will aim at observing all patients exposed to NovoThirteen® in the EU, and additional patients from selected non-EU countries. Recombinant FXIII (rFXIII) is registered in EU and Switzerland as NovoThirteen® and in Canada as Tretten®.
Interventions
