Study Summary

This trial will test the effectiveness of a new treatment for von Willebrand Disease in children.

Who is the study for?
Children under 18 with severe hereditary von Willebrand disease (VWD) can join this trial. They must have had at least one bleed requiring treatment in the past year and agree to follow study rules. Girls who can have babies must test negative for pregnancy and use birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing recombinant von Willebrand Factor (rVWF), alone or with ADVATE, to treat bleeding in kids with VWD. Over 12-18 months, doctors will give treatments based on their usual practice while checking effectiveness and side effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of rVWF include allergic reactions due to mouse or hamster proteins in the drug, risk of blood clots, and general discomforts like headaches or nausea that are common with infusions.
