Deficiency in human coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) causes hemophilia A (HA). Patients with HA may suffer from spontaneous bleeding, which can be life-threatening. Recombinant FVIII (rFVIII) is an established treatment and prevention agent for bleeding in patients with HA. Human plasma-derived FVIII (pdFVIII), commonly used in clinical practice, is relatively difficult to prepare. In this study, we developed a novel B-domain-deleted rFVIII, produced and formulated without the use of animal or human serum-derived components. rFVIII promoted the generation of activated factor X and downstream thrombin, and, similar to that of other available FVIII preparations, its activity was inhibited by FVIII inhibitors. In addition, rFVIII has ideal binding affinity to human von Willebrand factor. Activated FVIII (FVIIIa) could be degraded by activated protein C and lose its procoagulant activity. In vitro, commercially available recombinant FVIII (Xyntha) and pdFVIII were used as controls, and there were no statistical differences between rFVIII and commercial FVIII preparations, which demonstrates the satisfactory efficacy and potency of rFVIII. In vivo, HA mice showed that infusion of rFVIII rapidly corrected activated partial thromboplastin time, similar to Xyntha. Moreover, different batches of rFVIII were comparable. Overall, our results demonstrate the potential of rFVIII as an effective strategy for the treatment of FVIII deficiency.
