Results from a clinical trial with people who have hemophilia B with inhibitors or hemophilia A with inhibitors
Jericho has
hemophilia A
with inhibitors.
A study evaluated the safety and efficacy of Alhemo® for routine prophylaxis in 91 adults and in 42 adolescents aged 12 to 17 years who have hemophilia B or A with inhibitors. Participants in the study were treated with either bypassing agents on demand or Alhemo® once-daily prophylaxis over 24 weeks or 32 weeks, respectively. Efficacy was evaluated by comparing the number of treated bleeds between 19 patients who received bypassing agents on demand (no prophylaxis) and 33 patients who received Alhemo® prophylaxis.

All bypassing agents can be used to treat breakthrough bleeds
Alhemo® does not treat bleeds. Your doctor may prescribe a bypassing agent to use if you experience a breakthrough bleed. Carefully follow your healthcare provider’s instructions regarding when to use on-demand bypassing agents and the recommended dose and schedule for breakthrough bleeds.
In the randomized arms of the clinical trial of people with inhibitors, injection site reactions were the most common adverse reactions , reported in 6 out of 33 people (18%) using Alhemo®, followed by urticaria, reported in 2 out of 33 people (6%).
Majority of injection site reactions were mild.
An allergic reaction in 1 patient (3%) led to stopping Alhemo® treatment.
