Abstract: A pharmaceutical formulation for subcutaneous, intramuscular or intradermal administration comprising recombinant coagulation factor VIII and use thereof for manufacture of a medicament for treating haemophilia is provided. The formulation comprises a highly purified recombinant coagulation factor VIII in a concentration of at least 1000 IU/ml, which gives surprisingly high levels of active factor VIII in the blood stream after subcutaneous, intramuscular or intradermal administration. The formulation is intended for treatment of haemophilia by subcutaneous, intramuscular or intradermal administration. The recombinant factor VIII is preferably a deletion derivative thereof, which can be used for the manufacture of a medicament for subcutaneous administration.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical formulation for subcutaneous, intramuscular or intradermal administration comprising coagulation factor VIII or factor IX and use thereof for manufacture of a medicament for treating haemophilia A or B. The formulation comprises coagulation factor VIII or factor IX with an activity of at least 200 IU/ml and an additive increasing the bio-availability of factor VIII or factor IX. Tests with factor VIII gives a therapeutic level of active factor VIII in the blood stream for a surprisingly long period of time after subcutaneous, intramuscular or intradermal administration. The factor VIII is suitably a highly purified recombinant factor VII, and preferably a deletion derivative thereof, which can be used for the manufacture of a medicament for subcutaneous administration.
