"The Iranian medical community is extremely pleased and gratified to be making preparations for the arrival of Haemate P into Iran," said Professor Mehran Karimi, University of Shiraz.

We look forward to finding ways to collaborate further with CSL Behring in the near future in order to serve these patients and others."

The MOHME will purchase 20,000 vials of Haemate P in 500 IU vials in the first year of launch, administering it in four treatment centers throughout Iran. CSL Behring and the MOHME plan to collaborate on VWD testing, detection and treatment projects to benefit Iranian families impacted by VWD.

About von Willebrand Disease

Von Willebrand disease is caused by a deficiency or abnormality of the von Willebrand factor, a protein in the blood that is necessary for normal blood clotting. Men and women are equally likely to be affected by VWD. VWD is classified by types, ranging from Type I (the most common and mild) to Type III (the most severe).

According to the World Federation for Hemophilia, VWD is found in approximately 1-2 percent of the world's population, although that prevalence is much higher in certain countries such as Iran.

Common symptoms of VWD include frequent nosebleeds and easy bruising. Bleeding can be mild or serious and can occur as a result of injury, or without any obvious cause. More serious symptoms include bleeding into joints and internal organs. Women with VWD are more likely to experience heavy, prolonged menstruation.

Individuals with the more severe form of VWD should avoid unnecessary trauma, such as contact sports. The VWD patient may require special care during dental procedures, surgery and childbirth.

There is no "cure" for VWD, but it can be treated. Specific treatments may include desmop
