LACHEN, Switzerland and HOBOKEN, N.J., Aug. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Octapharma AG is leading an international initiative focused on confronting the major risk associated with hemophilia A therapy - anti-factor VIII (FVIII) antibodies, also known as inhibitors. This initiative, combined with Octapharma’s efforts to pursue the first recombinant FVIII therapy produced from a human cell line, could dramatically impact the treatment of an estimated one in every 5,000 to 10,000 men born with hemophilia A worldwide. Globally, 75% of the hemophilia cases go undiagnosed or untreated.
