Finally, Spark's management indicated that new hemophilia data expected to be released between Dec. 9 and 12 for SPK-8011 for Factor VIII. The company expects to have data for at least five to seven patients depending on dosing schedule. The Hem B program is also in the process of being transferred to Pfizer Inc.
