Baxter International Inc. has announced pivotal Phase III study results evaluating the efficacy and safety of routine prophylaxis compared to on-demand treatment of FEIBA NF [Anti-Inhibitor Coagulant Complex], Nanofiltered and Vapor Heated, in patients with Hemophilia A or B and inhibitors

Top-line results from the study showed a reduced median annual bleed rate (ABR) from 28.7 during FEIBA NF on-demand treatment to 7.9 during FEIBA NF prophylactic treatment (a 72.5% reduction). The Phase III study will form the basis of a biologics license application (BLA) to be filed with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the first quarter of 2013.
