Introducing COAGADEX

COAGADEX is the first and only treatment indicated to replace exactly what these patients are missing – Factor X1

Factor X content in PCCs is variable and imprecise2-4

PCCs contain variable amounts of factor X, requiring higher volumes to reach optimal factor X levels

  • IU of factors II, VII, and IX per 100 IU of factor X.

For patients with HFXD, administration of high concentrations of unneeded factors II, VII, and IX may be associated with a risk of thromboembolic complications. Concentrations of factors II, VII, and X may not always be known, vary among PCCs, and can vary among batches of the same PCC.5,6

Other risk factors that can contribute to thrombotic risk include:

  • Older age
  • Traumatic injury
  • Surgical intervention
  • Pregnancy intervention
  • Oral contraceptives
  • Being overweight or obese

COAGADEX Pharmacokinetics

Twice-weekly dosing of COAGADEX is recommended for prophylactic use1

Factor X Activity Levels Following Single-Dose (25 IU/kg) COAGADEX Administration7

*Single 25 IU/kg dose to subjects 12 years of age and older. COAGADEX pharmacokinetics have been shown to be similar following single or repeat dosing.

For children <12 years of age, incremental recovery is reduced compared to adults

  • Incremental recovery was lowest in children <6 years of age1

COAGADEX Dosing Instructions1

  • Dose and duration of treatment with COAGADEX depend on the:
    Severity of the factor X deficiency
    Location and extent of bleeding
    Patient’s clinical condition
  • Base each patient’s dose and frequency on individual clinical response. Do not administer more than 60 IU/kg daily

Recommended Initial Dosing for Prophylaxis of Bleeding Episodes

AgeInitial DoseFurther Management
0 to <12 years40 IU/kg twice weeklyMonitor trough blood levels of factor X targeting at least 5 IU/dL and adjust dosage to clinical response and trough levels. Do not exceed a peak level of 120 IU/dL
≥12 years25 IU/kg twice weekly

Recommended Initial Dosing for On-demand Treatment of Bleeding Episodes

AgeInitial DoseFurther Management
0 to <12 years30 IU/kgInfuse at first sign of bleeding. Repeat at intervals of 24 hours until the bleed stops
≥12 years25 IU/kg

Recommended Initial Dosing for Perioperative Management

AgeInitial DoseFurther Management
0 to <12 yearsUse a factor of 0.6 to calculate the required dose
Pre-surgery: raise plasma factor X levels to 70-90 IU/dL
Post-surgery: maintain plasma factor X levels at ≥50 IU/dL until the patient is no longer at risk of bleeding due to surgery
Dose (IU) = body weight (kg) x desired factor X rise* (IU/dL or % of normal) x 0.6
≥12 yearsUse a factor of 0.5 to calculate the required dose
Pre-surgery: raise plasma factor X levels to 70-90 IU/dL
Post-surgery: maintain plasma factor X levels at ≥50 IU/dL until the patient is no longer at risk of bleeding due to surgery
Dose (IU) = body weight (kg) x desired factor X rise* (IU/dL or % of normal) x 0.5

*The desired factor X rise is the difference between the patient’s plasma factor X level and the maximum desired level.

Replace exactly what's missing

Indications and Usage for COAGADEX

COAGADEX, a plasma-derived blood coagulation factor X concentrate, is indicated in adults and children with hereditary factor X deficiency for:

  • Routine prophylaxis to reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes
  • On-demand treatment and control of bleeding episodes
  • Perioperative management of bleeding in patients with mild, moderate and severe hereditary factor X deficiency

Contraindication for COAGADEX

COAGADEX is contraindicated in patients who have had life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions to COAGADEX.

Important Safety Information for COAGADEX

Allergic type hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, are possible with COAGADEX. If symptoms occur, patients should discontinue use of the product immediately, contact their physician, and administer appropriate treatment.

The formation of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) to factor X is a possible complication in the management of individuals with factor X deficiency. Carefully monitor patients taking COAGADEX for the development of inhibitors by appropriate clinical observations and laboratory tests.

COAGADEX is made from human plasma and may contain infectious agents, e.g. viruses, the variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) agent and, theoretically, the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) agent. No cases of transmission of viral diseases, vCJD or CJD, have been associated with the use of COAGADEX.

In clinical studies, the most common adverse reactions (frequency ≥5% of subjects) with COAGADEX were infusion site erythema, infusion site pain, fatigue and back pain.
