wilate® is a VWF/FVIII concentrate that is proven to be effective in people with all types of von Willebrand disease for the management of bleeding during surgery, as prophylaxis for the prevention of bleeding, and for on-demand treatment of bleeds1-3
wilate® is a VWF/FVIII concentrate that is proven to be effective in people with all types of von Willebrand disease for the management of bleeding during surgery, as prophylaxis for the prevention of bleeding, and for on-demand treatment of bleeds1-3
wilate® was developed specifically for people with von Willebrand disease (VWD), and contains VWF and FVIII in a physiological 1:1 activity ratio, which may facilitate simple dosing and monitoring even when repeated dosing is needed.4, 5
The purification process includes two virus inactivation steps in order to ensure a high-purity product free of viral contamination.4
Over 15 years of clinical and real-life experience have proven the efficacy and tolerability of wilate® in people with all types of von Willebrand disease for surgery, on-demand treatment and prophylaxis.1-3
*Based on von Willebrand factor and factor VIII activity levels. FVIII, coagulation factor VIII; VWF, von Willebrand factor.
One of the functions of VWF is to bind to and protect FVIII from proteolytic degradation.4
As a result, people with von Willebrand disease may have low levels of both VWF and FVIII, both of which need to be corrected in order to restore normal haemostasis.4
wilate® contains VWF and FVIII in a balanced 1:1 ratio*, which is similar to the activity ratio of VWF and FVIII in the plasma of healthy individuals4

As a result, people with von Willebrand disease may have low levels of both VWF and FVIII, both of which need to be corrected in order to restore normal haemostasis.4
The balanced ratio of VWF and FVIII* may simplify dosing and monitoring of wilate®2

wilate® is a high-purity, human VWF/FVIII concentrate
wilate® is made from pooled human plasma that has been collected in GMP-compliant donation centres, which are regularly inspected by Octapharma and national and international authorities9
FVIII, factor VIII; GMP, good manufacturing practice; VWF, von Willebrand factor.

All individual plasma samples undergo extensive testing for viruses, including for HIV, hepatitis A, B and C and parvovirus B199, 10
FVIII, factor VIII; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus; VWF, von Willebrand factor.

wilate® is a high-purity, human VWF/FVIII concentrate
wilate® is purified through a series of carefully controlled processing steps, all designed to minimise impurities and ensure viral safety4
Two chromatographic steps ensure high purity and remove non-essential proteins4
Viral safety is achieved by two complementary virus inactivation steps4
Double virus inactivation process
HBV, hepatitis B virus; HCV, hepatitis C virus; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus.
