About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Open-label, Phase 3b Study of Human Plasma-Derived Factor XIII Concentrate in Subjects With Congenital Factor XIII Deficiency

Congenital deficiency of factor XIII (FXIII) is an extremely rare inherited disorder associated with potentially life-threatening bleeding. Factor XIII Concentrate is given to patients whose blood is lacking factor XIII. Factor XIII Concentrate works by assisting blood in the usual clotting process, thereby preventing bleeding.

In this study, patients will be treated with FXIII Concentrate (Human) and followed closely to determine that they receive the dose that will best minimize the chance of bruising and 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

    Doses will be guided by the individual subject's most recent FXIII activity levels, with the objective of dosing every 28 days to maintain a trough FXIII activity level of approximately 5 to 20%.

    Subjects enrolled in this study who did not complete the pharmacokinetic study (Factor XIII Study BI71023_2002 [NCT00883090]) will initially receive FXIII Concentrate (Human) at a dose of 40 U/kg by intravenous (IV) infusion.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Incidence of Spontaneous Bleeding Events Requiring Treatment (Treatment is Defined as Administration of a FXIII-Containing Product to Treat the Bleeding Event)

    The number of subjects requiring treatment with a Factor XIII-containing product to treat a spontaneous bleeding event.

    Measured: Up to week 52

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Association of the Incidence of Spontaneous Bleeding Events Requiring Treatment and FXIII Activity Trough Levels

    P-value determined from Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) model parameter estimates with bleeding as the response variable and FXIII activity trough level as the explanatory variable.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Adverse Events

    Number of subjects with any treatment-emergent adverse event (AE), treatment-related AE or serious AE (SAE). Treatment related AEs are defined as AEs whose relationship to study treatment is related, or possibly related, and AEs with missing relationship.

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Peak FXIII Concentration at Steady State

    Measured: At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks: at 30 and 60 minutes after the end of the infusion.

  4. Trough FXIII Concentration at Steady State

    Measured: At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks: immediately before infusion.

  5. Time to Peak Concentration

    Measured: At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks: immediately before infusion, then at 30 and 60 minutes after the end of the infusion.

  6. Incremental Recovery

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

    Measured: At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks: immediately before infusion, then at 30 and 60 minutes after the end of the infusion.

  7. Achievement of Trough Factor XIII Levels of 5% or Higher.

    Number of subjects with Factor XIII level ≥ 5% before infusion at Week 12, Week 24, Week 36 and Week 48.

    Measured: At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks: immediately before infusion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing FXIII Concentrate (Human) in people with Factor XIII Deficiency, run by CSL Behring at 23 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 13 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 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 4 Jul 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?

The Incidence of Spontaneous Bleeding Events Requiring Treatment (Treatment is Defined as Administration of a FXIII-Containing Product to Treat the Bleeding Event) (time frame: Up to week 52). 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 NCT00885742, 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 Jul 2012.
