Human fibrinogen concentrate (Fibryga) received temporary approval for fibrinogen replacement therapy in France (2017), with subsequent full approval for congenital and acquired hypofibrinogenemia. We evaluated real‐world use for on‐demand treatment of bleeding and prophylaxis to enhance our knowledge on fibrinogen concentrate as an option for fibrinogen replacement. Data were retrospectively collected from adult and pediatric patients with fibrinogen deficiency. The primary end point was indication for fibrinogen concentrate use; the secondary end point was treatment success for on‐demand treatment/perioperative prophylaxis. The study included 150 adult (median age, 62 years; range, 18‐94 years) and 50 pediatric (median age, 3 years; range, 0.01‐17 years) patients with acquired fibrinogen deficiency. Fibrinogen concentrate was administered to 47.3% for nonsurgical bleeding, 22.7% for surgical bleeding, and 30.0% for perioperative prophylaxis in adult patients, and to 4.0% for surgical bleeding and 96.0% for perioperative prophylaxis in pediatric patients. Cardiac surgeries accounted for 79.5%/75.0% perioperative prophylaxis and 82.4%/100.0% surgical bleeding cases in adult/pediatric patients, respectively. The mean ± standard deviation (SD, median) total fibrinogen doses were 3.06 ± 1.69 g (32.61 mg/kg), 2.09 ± 1.36 g (22.99 mg/kg), and 2.36 ± 1.25 g (29.67 mg/kg) for adult nonsurgical bleeding, surgical bleeding, and perioperative prophylaxis, respectively; doses of 0.75 ± 0.35 g (47.64 mg/kg) and 0.83 ± 0.62 g (55.56 mg/kg) were used for pediatric surgical bleeding and perioperative prophylaxis, respectively. Treatment success was 85.7%/97.1/93.3% in adults and 50.0%/87.5% in pediatrics for nonsurgical bleeding (adults only), surgical bleeding, and perioperative prophylaxis, respectively. Fibrinogen concentrate demonstrated favorable effectiveness and safety across the age groups. This study contributes to evidence supporting fibrinogen concentrate for bleeding control/prevention in real‐world clinical practice, particularly for patients with acquired fibrinogen deficiency.
