The main purpose of this study is to gather information regarding the safety of ReFacto AF, and how well it works (effectiveness) in children with severe Hemophilia A under the age of 12. Approximately 50 subjects, will take part in this study. 25 subjects will be 0-6 years of age and 25 subjects will be 6 to 12 years of age.
