Overview

Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant), PEGylated, was approved by the FDA in December 2016 as the product Adynovate . Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant), PEGylated, is a recombinant full-length human coagulation factor VIII (2,332 amino acids with a molecular weight (MW) of approximately 280 kDa) covalently conjugated with at least one molecule of polyethylene glycol (MW 20 kDa) . It has been created to increase the half-life of factor VIII, which decreases dose frequency and decreases the occurrence of bleeding events , , . PEGylation is the covalent attachment of a polyethylene glycol polymer, called PEG, to a drug or protein. PEGylation decreases factor VIII clearance and allowing for an increased duration of drug circulation in the plasma .
