What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) According to Baseline Characteristics

    AE: any untoward medical occurrence in participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. AE assessed by baseline characteristics (chr) included age, gender, pediatric/geriatric status, liver disorder, BeneFIX treatment (previously/newly), factor nine (FIX) gene mutation, prior exposure to plasma-derived FIX products, prior FIX regimen(s) utilized, personal history of FIX inhibitor, family history of hemophilia B, severity of bleeding, medical history, concomitant medication and therapy.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  2. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) According to Severity

    AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. AE was assessed according to severity; mild (not causing any significant problem, dose adjustment not required), moderate (caused problem that does not interfere significantly with usual activities or the clinical status, dose adjustment needed due to adverse event) and severe (caused problem that interferes significantly with usual activities or the clinical status, study drug stopped due to adverse event).

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  3. Number of Participants With Action Taken in Response to Adverse Events (AEs)

    AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. After an onset of an AE, relevant actions were undertaken on the study drug or the participant. Actions related to study drug included: dosage reduced, dosage increased, stopped temporarily or permanently, no action taken; actions related to participants included: withdrawal from the study, concomitant medication, no action taken or any other as per physician's discretion.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  4. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) According to Seriousness

    AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Seriousness of an AE was assessed under the criteria of serious adverse event (SAE). An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  5. Number of Participants With Outcome in Response to Adverse Events (AEs)

    AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Outcome of an AE was assessed based on response to a question 'Is the adverse event still present?' as 'yes', 'unknown' or 'no-resolved'.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  6. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) by Relationship

    AE: untoward medical occurrence in participant who received study drug without regard to causal relationship. All causalities and drug-related AEs reported. Drug-related AEs based on physician's discretion: certain (AE after drug intake, not explained by other drugs, reaction on drug cessation [DC], relapse on re-intake of drug), probable/likely (AE after drug intake, not explained by other drugs, reaction on DC, no information on re-intake), possible (AE after drug intake, explained by other drugs, no information on DC), unlikely (not related to drug intake time, explained by other drugs).

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  7. Number of Participants With Unexpected Adverse Events (AEs)

    AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Unexpected AEs were those that were not included in precaution of local product document.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Mean Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR)

    An annualized bleeding rate (ABR) was calculated as the number of bleeds requiring administration of BeneFIX (for on-demand therapy and surgery), divided by total period of bleeding multiplied by 365.25. Total period of bleeding is the number of days on treatment for prophylaxis purpose and on-demand therapy and surgery.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  2. Number of Responses to On-demand Treatment With Study Medication

    Responses to on-demand treatment were rated by participant/caregiver or physician each time the drug was administered, on 4-point scale. Score 1=excellent (definite pain relief [PR] and improvement [imp] within 8 hours [h] of infusion [inf], no additional inf); score 2=good (definite PR and imp within 8h of inf, at least 1 additional inf for complete resolution [CR] of bleeding or starting after 8h of inf, no additional inf); score 3=moderate (probable or slight imp starting after 8h of inf, at least 1 additional inf for CR of bleeding); score 4=no imp at all, or condition worsens).

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  3. Mean Number of Infusion of Study Medication

    Mean frequency of BeneFIX administration of each participant was calculated from number of BeneFIX infusions which each participant received for treatment of each new bleed. Mean frequency of BeneFIX administration for total participants was summarized.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  4. Mean Number of Breakthrough Bleeds Within 48 Hours of Study Medication

    Mean frequency of breakthrough (spontaneous/non-traumatic) bleeds of each participant within 48 hours of a preventive/prophylaxis dose of BeneFIX was calculated from number of irregular bleeding which occurred in each participant. Mean frequency breakthrough bleeds for total participants within 48 hours of a preventive/prophylaxis dose of BeneFIX was summarized.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  5. Average Infusion Dose of Study Medication

    Average of dose per infusion per kilogram (kg) body weight was reported for prophylaxis purpose or on-demand therapy and surgery.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  6. Total Infusion of Study Medication

    Total dose of study drug infused was calculated over the study duration.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

  7. Percentage of Participants With Efficacy Evaluation

    The efficacy of study drug was rated as 'very effective', 'effective', 'slightly ineffective' and 'ineffective'.

    Measured: Baseline up to 6 months

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) According to Baseline Characteristics (time frame: Baseline up to 6 months). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
