Bayer reports FDA approved Jivi for use in pediatric patients 7 years and older

Bayer (BAYRY) announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved Jivi, a recombinant DNA-derived, extended half-life factor VIII concentrate, for use in pediatric patients 7 years of age and older with hemophilia A. The approval is based on data from the Alfa-PROTECT and PROTECT Kids studies, demonstrating Jivi’s safety and efficacy in children aged 7 to under 12 years with severe hemophilia A. This significant milestone reflects Bayer’s ongoing commitment to providing effective treatment options for the hemophilia community. Jivi was first granted approval by the FDA in August 2018 for use in previously treated adults 12 years of age and older with hemophilia A, the company noted.
