The primary objective of the study is to assess the immunogenicity of VWF/FVIII and of rFVIII concentrates by determining the frequency of inhibitor development in previously untreated patients (PUPs) or minimally blood component-treated (MBCTPs) in the first 50 EDs or in the first 3 years from enrollment, whichever occurs first.

- To Assess the Immunogenicity of Plasma Derived VWF/FVIII and rFVIII Concentrates by Determining the Frequency of Inhibitor Development in the First 50 EDs or in the First 3 Years From Enrolment, Whichever Comes First in PUPs and MBCTs [ Time Frame: During the first 50 exposure days or first 3 years of enrollment, whichever occurs first ]
Expressed with the numebr of patients for each group who developed FVIII inhibitors.
PUPs: Previously Untreated Patients MBCTPs: Minimally Blood Component-Treated Patients
- To Evaluate the Anamnestic Response of Inhibitor Patients [ Time Frame: During the first 50 exposure days or first 3 years of enrollment, whichever occurs first ]
- To Evaluate the Frequency of Transient Inhibitors [ Time Frame: In the 6 months after inhibitor development ]Number of participants for each group who developed transient inhibitors (this means, those inhibitors which disappeared spontaneously within 6 months without immunotolerance treatment).
- To Evaluate the Modality of Occurrence of Inhibitors (Number of EDs) [ Time Frame: During the first 50 exposure days or first 3 years of enrollment, whichever occurs first ]Number of EDs: Number of Exposure Days (EDs) after which the inhibitors develop
- To Evaluate the Modality of Occurrence of Inhibitors (Titre at Onset) [ Time Frame: During 6 months of observation, from the inhibitor occurrence ]Inhibitor Titre at Onset
- To Evaluate Clinical Factors Potentially Associated to Inhibitor Development [ Time Frame: During the first 50 exposure days or first 3 years of enrollment, whichever occurs first ]
- To Evaluate Laboratory Factors Potentially Associated to Inhibitor Development [ Time Frame: During the first 50 exposure days or first 3 years of enrollment, whichever occurs first ]
- To Evaluate the Incidence of All Other Adverse Events Related and Not Related to the Products Used [ Time Frame: During the first 50 exposure days or first 3 years of enrollment, whichever occurs first ]

o Patients not meeting these criteria will be separately recorded in the screening list.
- Negative inhibitor measurement at both local and central laboratory at screening
- Ability to comply with study requirements
- Signed informed consent of legal tutors o Patients who will not accept to enter into the study or to be randomized will be separately recorded.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Previous history of FVIII inhibitor
- Other congenital or acquired bleeding defects
-
Plasma FVIII level >= 1%, as assayed at the central laboratory
o Those patients originally diagnosed locally as severe but subsequently found to have FVIII levels ranging from 1% to 2% on testing at the central laboratory will be separately recorded in the screening list.
- Concomitant congenital or acquired immunodeficiency
- Concomitant treatment with systemic immunosuppressive drugs
- Concomitant treatment with any investigational drug
