Biological origin of the active substance

ADYNOVATE [rurioctocog alfa pegol, Recombinant Coagulation Factor VIII (rch), PEGylated] is a full-length form of human coagulation factor VIII (parent molecule: ADVATE [octocog alfa, Recombinant Human Factor VIII (rch)] with an extended half-life. ADYNOVATE is comprised of 2,332 amino acids [molecular weight (MW) 280kDa] covalently conjugated with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) reagent (MW 20kDa). The therapeutic activity of ADYNOVATE is derived from ADVATE, which is produced by recombinant DNA technology from a Chinese hamster ovary cell line. The ADVATE molecule is then covalently conjugated with the PEG reagent, which targets lysine residues. The PEG moiety is conjugated to the ADVATE molecule to increase the plasma half-life through the reduction of the LRP-1 receptor-mediated clearance of the factor VIII molecule.

Active Ingredient Description
Coagulation factor VIII

Activated factor VIII acts as a cofactor for activated factor IX, accelerating the conversion of factor X to activated factor X (factor Xa). Haemophilia A is a sex-linked hereditary disorder of blood coagulation due to decreased levels of factor VIII:C. By replacement therapy the plasma levels of factor VIII are increased, thereby enabling a temporary correction of the factor deficiency and correction of the bleeding tendencies.
