Mechanism of action

Factor VIII is a critical cofactor in the intrinsic coagulation pathway that works with von Willebrand factor to activate Factor X. In hemophilia A, Factor VIII is absent or defective, leading to impaired thrombin generation and bleeding. Recombinant Factor VIII replacement therapy restores normal coagulation cascade function and hemostatic capacity.
