CSL Behring Delivers on its Promise to Advance Bleeding Disorder Treatment Research by Supporting 16 Data Presentations at ISTH 2019
MELBOURNE, Australia, July 2, 2019 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

-- Novel real world evidence for AFSTYLA(R) and IDELVION(R) to be highlighted 

Global biotherapeutics leader CSL Behring ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=2514141-1&h=2330612868&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cslbehring.com%2F&a=CSL+Behring 
) announced today that the company will support the presentation of new data 
from its recombinant coagulation factor programs at this year's International 
Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) ( 
https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=2514141-1&h=3624736756&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.isth2019.org%2F&a=International+Society+on+Thrombosis+and+Haemostasis 
) Congress in Melbourne, Australia, 6-10, July, 2019.  In addition to 
supporting 15 posters and one oral presentation, the company will also host two 
satellite symposiums during the meeting.  The ISTH congress presents an 
opportunity for leaders in hematology and thrombosis research to exchange new 
findings and discuss advances in patient care.  

"Real world evidence can provide deep new insights that complement data 
acquired in clinical trials and can unlock the promise of novel bleeding 
disorder treatments", said Andrew Cuthbertson, Chief Scientific Officer and R&D 
Director, CSL Limited. "These presentations demonstrate our commitment to 
improving treatments and will provide valuable understanding to patients and 
physicians when creating a care plan."

Seven poster presentations, an oral presentation and a satellite symposium will 
add to the growing body of evidence demonstrating the safety and efficacy of 
AFSTYLA(R) [Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant), Single Chain]. AFSTYLA (also 
known as rVIII-SingleChain), CSL Behring's recombinant factor VIII single-chain 
therapy for haemophilia A, is approved in over 40 countries including 
Australia, Japan, the European Union, United States, and Switzerland.

Five posters and a satellite symposium will highlight new IDELVION(R) 
[Coagulation Factor IX (Recombinant), Albumin Fusion Protein] data. IDELVION 
(also known as rIX-FP), CSL Behring's long-acting recombinant factor IX albumin 
fusion protein for haemophilia B, is approved in over 40 countries including 
Australia, Japan, the European Union, United States and Switzerland.
