Purpose
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of rhIL-11 when given subcutaneously in adults with type 1 von Willebrand disease undergoing elective surgery or major dental procedure. Efficacy will be measured by estimated blood loss, and frequency and severity of bleeding and transfusion requirement during and after surgery. Safety will be measured by the frequency of adverse events, including fever, headache, fatigue, myalgias, arthralgias, fluid retention, or edema.

- The primary efficacy outcome measure is perioperative estimated blood loss. [ Time Frame: The time frame is within 4 weeks of surgery. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- A secondary outcome measure is the mechanism of IL-11 effect by VWFmRNA. [ Time Frame: 4 weeks per subject ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- A secondary outcome measure is the frequency of IL-11 associated adverse events. [ Time Frame: The time frame is within 4 weeks of surgery. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Detailed Description:
This study is a prospective, single-center Phase II trial of Neumega (rhIL-11) in adults with type 1 VWD undergoing elective surgery or major dental procedure. It is anticipated that 10 subjects who meet eligibility criteria will enroll and complete the study. The specific objectives are to determine the efficacy and safety or rhIL-11 during and after elective surgery, and to determine the mechanism of the hemostatic response of rhIL-11.
