Von Willebrand Disease

Sidonio et al. conducted the WIL-31 trial, a phase 3 study on wilate® prophylaxis in patients with severe Von Willebrand disease (VWD) (1). The study involved 33 patients and reported a more than 50% reduction in mean total annualized bleeding rate (TABR) compared to prior on-demand treatment. The mean spontaneous annualized bleeding rate (ABR) saw an 86.9% reduction. The trial, registered under ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers NCT04053699 and NCT04052698, demonstrated the efficacy and tolerability of wilate® in pediatric and adult patients with all types of VWD.
