Baxalta Inc announced the publication of pivotal phase III data for BAX 111 (recombinant von Willebrand Factor) in Blood, the journal of the American Society of Hematology. The data showed that 100 percent of the patients treated with BAX 111, a highly purified recombinant von Willebrand factor (rVWF) candidate, achieved success in the management of bleeding episodes. BAX 111 is currently under review by the FDA. If approved, BAX 111 would become the first recombinant replacement treatment for managing bleeding episodes for von Willebrand patients.
