A Post-marketing Observation Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of the FVIII/VWF Complex (Human,) Alphanate(R), in Preventing Excessive Bleeding During Surgery in Subjects With Congenital Type 3 Von Willebrand Disease

To assess the efficacy of FVIII/VWF Complex (Human), Alphanate® as replacement therapy in
preventing excessive bleeding in subjects with congenital Type 3 von Willebrand Disease
(VWD) who undergo surgical procedures.

For the treatment of surgical procedures the intended dose of Alphanate® will be given as a
single dose or as multiple doses over several days, depending on the clinical situation, and
according to the Full Prescribing Information guideline and the investigator's judgment. For
each treated event, the subject's treatment period will be finished when, in the opinion of
the local Investigator, the participating subject would not benefit from further infusions
of the study concentrate.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male or female 7 years of age or older

2. The subject has been diagnosed of inherited VWD of Type 3 as determined by subject's
medical records.

3. The subject needs a surgical procedure (at least 10 surgical procedures have to be
considered as "Major" according to the criteria of the protocol).

4. The subject is expected to respond to exogenously administered FVIII/VWF according to
Investigator's judgment.

5. The subject freely gives written informed consent. Patients who are not legally
permitted to provide written consent must sign a form of assent for study
participation, and written consent must be provided by a parent or legal guardian.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. The subject has been diagnosed of acquired VWD.

2. The subject is known to have history of intolerance to any Alphanate® containing
substance.

3. The subject is known to have history of anaphylactic reaction(s) to blood or blood
components.

4. Liver function tests (AST, ALT, bilirubin) > 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN).

5. Renal function test (creatinine, BUN) > 1.5 x ULN.

6. The subject is known or suspected to have present or past inhibitor activity
(antibodies) directed against FVIII or VWF.

7. The subject is known to abuse alcohol or illicit drug use within the past 12 months.

8. The subject is participating in another clinical study involving an investigational
treatment, or participated within the past 4 weeks (except if the patient is
participating in another Alphanate® study). Studies consisting of data and blood
sampling collections on a regular or long-term basis are exempt from this exclusion.

9. The subject is unlikely to adhere to the protocol requirements of the study.
