Previously treated patients (PTPs) aged below 12 years received BAY81-8973 25-50 IU/kg at least 2x/week for 6 months and at least 50 exposure days (EDs) in main study - Part A. Participants having reached at least 50 EDs in main study - Part A were offered participation in an open label extension study (optional). Participants who transitioned from main study - Part A to the extension study received BAY81-8973, 25-50 IU/kg at least 2x/week for at least 100 cumulative EDs (main study - Part A and extension study).
Previously untreated patients (PUPs) or minimally treated patients (MTPs, patients who had no more than 3 exposure days (EDs) with any FVIII product) received BAY81-8973 15-50 IU/kg at least 1x/week for at least 50 EDs or until inhibitor development in main study - Part B. Participants having reached at least 50 EDs in main study - Part B were offered participation in an open label extension study and received BAY81-8973 25-50 IU/kg at least 2x/week for at least 100 cumulative EDs (main study - Part B and extension study); participants who developed an inhibitor in main study - Part B were offered participation in open label extension study and received Immune Tolerance Induction (ITI) treatment with BAY81-8973 until successful eradication of the inhibitor, or until failure, for approximately 18 months.
