Mechanism of Action
This drug is a site-specifically PEGylated recombinant antihemophilic factor, which temporarily replaces the missing coagulation Factor VIII. The site-specific PEGylation in the A3 domain reduces binding to the physiological Factor VIII clearance receptors resulting in a longer half-life and increased AUC (area under the curve) [FDA label].
The active protein, prior to conjugation is a recombinant B-domain deleted human coagulation Factor VIII (BDD-rFVIII) produced by recombinant DNA technology in Baby Hamster Kidney (BHK) cells [FDA label].
Damoctagol alfa pegol is manufactured by site-specific conjugation of the BDD-rFVIII variant K1804C at the cysteine amino acid position 1804 (within the A3 domain) with a single maleimide-derivatized, 60 kilodalton (kDa) branched PEG (two 30 kDa PEG) moiety. The A3 domain was identified and selected for conjugation to provide both a continual coagulation activity and high PEGylation efficiency [FDA label].
