About this study

Official title: A 12 Week, Multicenter, Pharmacokinetic and Safety Study of Human Plasma-Derived Factor XIII Concentrate in Subjects With Congenital Factor XIII Deficiency

Congenital deficiency of Factor XIII is an extremely rare hereditary disorder associated with potentially life-threatening bleeding. This study will evaluate the safety and recommended (best) amount or level of Factor XIII in a patient's blood. Factor XIII Concentrate (Human) is given to people whose blood is lacking Factor XIII. Factor XIII Concentrate (Human) works by assisting your blood in the usual clotting process, thereby preventing bleeding.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • FXIII Concentrate (Human)Biological

    Also called Fibrogammin®-P

    Subjects will receive approximately 40 U/kg of FXIII every 28 days for 3 doses administered as a bolus intravenous (IV) injection at approximately 250 U/minute.

What is being measured

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

  1. Peak FXIII Concentration at Steady State

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Trough FXIII Concentration at Steady State

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Time to Peak Concentration

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Incremental Recovery

    Incremental recovery (U/mL/U/kg) is defined as the maximum (peak) FXIII activity (U/mL) obtained after infusion, per dose of FXIII (U/kg) administered.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  5. Terminal Half-life

    Measured: 12 weeks

  6. Area Under the Curve at Steady State

    Measured: 12 weeks

  7. Clearance

    Measured: 12 weeks

  8. Volume of Distribution at Steady State

    Measured: 12 weeks

  9. Mean Residence Time

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Adverse Events

    Number of participants with an adverse event

    Measured: 16 weeks

  2. Laboratory Safety Parameters

    Number of participants with clinically significant laboratory safety parameter values. The laboratory safety parameters measured included serum chemistries, hematology and urinalysis.

    Measured: 16 weeks

  3. Vital Signs

    Number of participants with clinically significant vital signs. The vital signs measured included blood pressure, pulse rate and temperature. Clinically significant changes in vital signs were to be reported as adverse events.

    Measured: 16 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing FXIII Concentrate (Human) in people with Factor XIII Deficiency, run by CSL Behring at 6 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jan 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Jan 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Peak FXIII Concentration at Steady State (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00883090, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jan 2012.
