von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the commonest inherited bleeding disorder. Management of major surgery or bleeding often requires treatment with a plasma-derived (pd) VWF/FVIII containing concentrate. Wilate® is a dual-virally inactivated pd-concentrate, produced specifically for the treatment of VWD, containing physiological (1:1) ratios of VWF: FVIII. We reviewed efficacy and safety of Wilate® usage (2007-2012) at our centre including 2 years following product switching the majority of patients. Clinical and laboratory data of all adult patients treated with Wilate® during the study period were evaluated. Fifty four patients used 3 972 150 IU of Wilate® (1378 infusions) between 1/3/07 and 1/5/12. Efficacy was rated as being excellent or good in 94% of surgical episodes (n = 70; 34 patients) and 98% of bleeding/traumatic episodes (n = 46; 25 patients). Eight patients (2 636 100 IU) were managed on home treatment regimens. Two patients switched to Wilate® prophylaxis in the evaluation period, demonstrating similar efficacy to a previous product. Incremental recoveries (n = 37) were 2.24 IU dL(-1) per IU kg(-1) for FVIII:C, 2.39 IU dL(-1) per IU kg(-1) for VWF:Ag and 1.88 IU dL(-1) per IU kg(-1) for VWF:RCo. Six adverse events occurred in six patients (11.1% patients) over 1378 infusions (0.44%). Half of these were retrospectively felt to be infusion speed related. No notable accumulation of FVIII was seen in patients treated for ≥3 days. There was no treatment failure, thrombosis, transfusion transmitted infection or inhibitory VWF antibodies seen. Our findings confirm safety and efficacy of Wilate® in an adult VWD population with lack of notable FVIII accumulation.
