Brief Summary
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of Recombinant Coagulation Factor VIII Fc Fusion Protein (rFVIIIFc) in previously treated pediatric subjects with hemophilia A. Secondary objectives of this study in this study population are as follows: to evaluate the efficacy of rFVIIIFc for prevention and treatment of bleeding episodes; to evaluate and assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of rFVIIIFc; and to evaluate rFVIIIFc consumption for prevention and treatment of bleeding episodes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Occurrence of FVIII Inhibitor Development
An inhibitor test result ≥0.6 Bethesda units (BU)/mL, confirmed on 2 separate samples drawn 2 to 4 weeks apart, was considered positive. Both tests were to be performed by the central laboratory using the Nijmegen-modified Bethesda Assay. Incidences were summarized for any positive inhibitor for participants with ≥50 EDs to rFVIIIFc. In addition, the incidence for all participants, regardless of their EDs to rFVIIIFc, was also summarized. An exact 95% CI for the proportion of participants with a confirmed inhibitor was calculated using the Clopper-Pearson exact method for a binomial proportion.
Up to Week 26 +/- 7 days, or up to 50 exposure days (EDs) if reached prior to Week 26
Secondary Outcomes (34)
Annualized Bleeding Rate
Up to Week 26 +/- 7 days (efficacy period as defined in description)
Annualized Joint Bleeding Rate (Spontaneous)
Up to Week 26 +/- 7 days (efficacy period as defined in description)
Participant Assessment of Response to Injections to Treat a Bleeding Episode
Up to Week 26 +/- 7 days
Physician's Global Assessment of the Participant's Response to His rFVIIIFc Regimen
Up to Week 26 +/- 7 days
Annualized rFVIIIFc Consumption Per Participant
Up to Week 26 +/- 7 days (efficacy period as defined in description)

Study Arms (1)
All participants
EXPERIMENTALPK subgroup: After a Washout Period of ≥72 hours, at the Baseline Visit (28±7 days prior to Day 1), participants receive a single IV injection of prestudy FVIII over 5 (±2) minutes at a dose of 50 IU/kg, rounded up to the nearest 250 IU increment, for a PK assessment. Following a second Washout Period of ≥72 hours, participants receive a single IV injection of rFVIIIFc over 5 (±2) minutes at a dose of 50 IU/kg for PK assessment. The first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc is administered at a starting dose of 25 IU/kg IV injection on Day 1 and 50 IU/kg on Day 4. Dose increases to a maximum of 80 IU/kg, and frequency of administration to a minimum interval of once every 2 days, are allowed as indicated. Non-PK subgroup: On Day 1, a first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc of 25 IU/kg IV injection is given, followed by a dose of 50 IU/kg on Day 4. Dose increases to a maximum of 80 IU/kg, and frequency of administration to a minimum interval of once every 2 days, are allowed as indicated.
Interventions
Vials of rFVIIIFc were combined as needed, based on the actual labeled potency to achieve the participant's calculated dose. Partial vial use was allowed, in order to achieve the calculated dose.
Baseline prestudy FVIII dosing in participants who enter the PK subgroup. Vials of prestudy FVIII were combined as needed, based on the nominal labeled potency (e.g., 250 IU, 500 IU, and 1000 IU), to achieve the participant's calculated dose.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Severe hemophilia A defined as \<1 IU/dL (\<1%) endogenous FVIII
- Male \<12 years of age and weight ≥13 kg
- History of at least 50 documented prior exposure days to FVIII
- No current, or history of, inhibitor development to FVIII
You may not qualify if:
- Other coagulation disorders in addition to Hemophilia A
- History of anaphylaxis associated with any FVIII or IV immunoglobulin administration
