Factor VIII is a key factor of the intrinsic clotting cascade.
Normal hemostasis requires at least a quarter of factor VIII activity. Although
it is passed down from parents to children, about 1/3 of cases are caused by a
spontaneous mutation, a change in a gene. Factor VIII is produced in liver
sinusoidal cells and endothelial cells outside of the liver throughout the body
circulating in the bloodstream in an inactive form in a stable noncovalent
complex bound to von Willebrand factor (vWF). Global Factor VIII Market is
segmented on the basis of type, disease management, application, and region.
Hemophilia A, recessive X-linked coagulation disorder or Antihemophilic factor
also called factor VIII (FVIII) deficiency or classic hemophilia, is a genetic
disorder caused by missing or defective factor VIII, a blood clotting protein.
It affects about 1 in 5000 males.

Hemophilia A patients are treated with factor VIII
concentrate for maintenance of normal hemostasis but unfortunately prophylactic
treatment is not in general use around the world. Later on, recombinant factor
VIII has been approved for therapeutic use, which lessens the risk of viral
transmission. Factor VIII levels are of significance to measure not only to
diagnose and monitor hemophilia but also for thrombophilia investigations. With
the advent of chromogenic substrate technology, accurate and sensitive methods
are available for quality control and for the clinical coagulation laboratory.
Concentrated FVIII from plasma or recombinant FVIII can
be given to hemophiliacs to restore hemostasis. Factor VIII Market is
classified, by type into Recombinant Factor VIII, Plasma-derived Factor VIII.
Factor VIII Market is classified, by disease management into Prophylaxis,
On-demand Therapy, and Inhibitor Therapy. Prophylaxis segment accounted for the
largest market share of the Factor VIII Market in terms of revenue. The
treatment involves the steady infusion of clotting factors in patients to
maintain their levels higher at all times.
On-demand therapy segment is expected to grow at fastest
pace over the forecast period. This treatment route is appropriate when
bleeding needs to be arrested as soon as it begins and prevents its spread to
joints and muscles. The slow acting on-demand hemophilia therapeutics for
disease management finds important market opportunities in developing
countries, where market penetration is increasing gradually.
