Protection of Children's Information
CSL Behring recognizes the privacy concerns of parents and the importance of protecting
the privacy of information collected from children. This Web site is operated primarily
for the use of healthcare providers, adult consumers and caregivers, and is not designed
or intended to attract children under the age of 13.
From time to time, we may offer an online program or activity that allows children
under the age of 13 to participate. In such instances, we provide additional privacy protections.
Additional Children's Privacy Protections
Parents of children who participate in online activities that are open to children under
13 through this Web site can be confident that any personal information that is provided
to this Web site will be collected and maintained in accordance with the Children's Online
Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). We encourage parents to supervise their children's activities
online and to participate with their children's online activities whenever possible. If you have
questions or concerns about the Internet and privacy for children, we encourage you to visit

At the present time, CSL Behring is not conducting any activities that are subject to the requirements of COPPA.
Security
Maintaining security of personally identifiable information has our highest priority.
We follow strict security procedures for safeguarding information and preventing unauthorized access.
We protect information in our high-security data center and adhere to strict computer security standards.
We have put in place privacy protection control systems designed to ensure that information about you remains
safe and secure. Only authorized CSL Behring employees are permitted to have access to this information and such access is limited by need.
However, the transmission of information over the Internet always presents some risk. For example,
an unauthorized third party may intercept a transmission, or could find a means to penetrate our
security measures. Consequently, although we believe we have implemented appropriate measures to
protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee that your information will never be disclosed
in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy. As a result, you should take special care
in deciding what information you send to us via e-mail or submit to us via this site.

HEMGENIX®, etranacogene dezaparvovec-drlb, is a one-time gene therapy for the treatment of adults with hemophilia B who:
Currently use Factor IX prophylaxis therapy, or
Have current or historical life-threatening bleeding, or
Have repeated, serious spontaneous bleeding episodes.
HEMGENIX is administered as a single intravenous infusion and can be administered only once.
What medical testing can I expect to be given before and after administration of HEMGENIX?
To determine your eligibility to receive HEMGENIX, you will be tested for Factor IX inhibitors. If this test result is positive, a retest will be performed 2 weeks later. If both tests are positive for Factor IX inhibitors, your doctor will not administer HEMGENIX to you. If, after administration of HEMGENIX, increased Factor IX activity is not achieved, or bleeding is not controlled, a post-dose test for Factor IX inhibitors will be performed.
HEMGENIX may lead to elevations of liver enzymes in the blood; therefore, ultrasound and other testing will be performed to check on liver health before HEMGENIX can be administered. Following administration of HEMGENIX, your doctor will monitor your liver enzyme levels weekly for at least 3 months. If you have preexisting risk factors for liver cancer, regular liver health testing will continue for 5 years post-administration. Treatment for elevated liver enzymes could include corticosteroids.
What were the most common side effects of HEMGENIX in clinical trials?
In clinical trials for HEMGENIX, the most common side effects reported in more than 5% of patients were liver enzyme elevations, headache, elevated levels of a certain blood enzyme, flu-like symptoms, infusion-related reactions, fatigue, nausea, and feeling unwell. These are not the only side effects possible. Tell your healthcare provider about any side effect you may experience.
What should I watch for during infusion with HEMGENIX?
Your doctor will monitor you for infusion-related reactions during administration of HEMGENIX, as well as for at least 3 hours after the infusion is complete. Symptoms may include chest tightness, headaches, abdominal pain, lightheadedness, flu-like symptoms, shivering, flushing, rash, and elevated blood pressure. If an infusion-related reaction occurs, the doctor may slow or stop the HEMGENIX infusion, resuming at a lower infusion rate once symptoms resolve.
What should I avoid after receiving HEMGENIX?
Small amounts of HEMGENIX may be present in your blood, semen, and other excreted/secreted materials, and it is not known how long this continues. You should not donate blood, organs, tissues, or cells for transplantation after receiving HEMGENIX.
