What is being measured

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

  1. Thrombogenecity

    Measured: at all scheduled visits (1 - 9)

  2. Immunogenecity: Neutralising Antibody Development

    Measured: at all scheduled visits (1 - 9)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. AUC(0-48h) and AUC: Area under the FVIIa activity-time profile in the given time period, which is a measure of total blood exposure

    Measured: at visit 2 and visit 7 until 48 hours after trial product administration

  2. Annualized bleeding rates

    Measured: During observation period; from visit 1 until visit 2 and treatment period; from visit 2 until visit 7. In total a period of 6 to 8 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing activated recombinant human factor VII, long acting in people with Congenital Bleeding Disorder and Haemophilia A With Inhibitors, run by Novo Nordisk A/S at 25 sites in 11 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 5 inclusion and 17 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 5 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in United States, Japan, United Kingdom, France, South Africa and 6 more countries. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Thrombogenecity (time frame: at all scheduled visits (1 - 9)). The study lists 2 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 NCT00951405, 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 5 Sep 2018.
