Efmoroctocog alfa, sold under the brand name Elocta among others, is a medication for the treatment and prophylaxis of bleeding in people with hemophilia A.[5][6][7] Efmoroctocog alfa is a recombinant human coagulation factor VIII, Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc).[5] It is produced by recombinant DNA technology in a human embryonic kidney (HEK) cell line.[5][6]

It was approved for medical use in the United States in June 2014,[8] and for use in the European Union in November 2015.[6]
