About this study

Official title: A Phase III Open, Multicentre Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of BPL's High Purity FACTOR X in the Treatment of Factor X Deficient Subjects Undergoing Surgery

To primary efficacy variable is to assess the presence or absence of excessive blood loss during and after surgery.

The secondary efficacy endpoints are as follows:

  1. A subjective overall assessment by the investigator of FACTOR X in the control of bleeding during surgery.
  2. The incidence of bleeding episodes during treatment with FACTOR X while the subject is at risk of post-operative bleeding, including location and duration.
  3. Incremental recovery of FX:C and FX:Ag after the pre-surgery bolus infusion.
  4. Assessment of FX:C and FX:Ag levels on each day post-surgery.
  5. Assessment of the cumulative weight-adjusted doses of FACTOR X as measured by FX:C (IU/kg body weight) administered to each subject to maintain haemostasis.
  6. Assessment of the cumulative doses of FACTOR X as measured by FX:C (IU) administered to each subject to maintain haemostasis.
  7. Amount of weight-adjusted FACTOR X as measured by FX:C (IU/kg body weight) administered daily (day of surgery and each post-operative day) to maintain haemostasis.
Read the detailed description

To investigate the safety and efficacy of FACTOR X administered by bolus infusion to prevent bleeding and achieve haemostasis in factor X deficient subjects undergoing surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • FACTOR XBiological

    Presurgery loading dose- The FX level of 70%-90% should be achieved.This will be calculated based on the patients weight on day of surgery and the required rise. Initial dose should not exceed 60IU/kg.

    Post surgery- FX trough levels of 50% should be achieved.

    Intravenous infusion of factor X is given at a suggested rate of 10mL/min but not exceeding more than 20mL/min.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical Estimation of Volume of Blood Loss During Surgery

    As soon as possible after wound closure, the investigator estimated the volume of blood loss during surgery and made a clinical assessment against the volume of blood loss typically expected in a normal patient (i.e. one without a bleeding disorder and undergoing the same surgical procedure). The assessment may have been supported by a swab and pad count.

    The clinical assessment was rated as follows:

    • Blood loss less than expected
    • Blood loss as expected
    • Blood loss more than expected
    • Blood loss excessive (defined as more than twice the pre defined amount that would be expected in a normal patient for this type of surgery)

    Measured: Blood loss is measured during and after surgery, the overall assessment is made after the last dose of FACTOR X.

  2. Clinical Assessment of Blood Loss During Surgery Against the Volume of Blood Loss Expected in Patients Without a Bleeding Disorder.

    The investigator's estimation of the volume of blood loss during surgery compared to the volume of blood loss expected in patients without a bleeding disorder undergoing the same surgical procedure and reported as greater than, equal to or less than.

    Measured: After wound closure

  3. Requirement for Blood Transfusion

    Number of blood transfusions required (units of packed red blood cells or units of whole blood) or infusion of autologous red cells during and after surgery

    Measured: during and after surgery

  4. Number of Post Operative Bleeding Episodes (See Table Below)

    Bleeding was assessed at least once each day by the investigator, more frequently if indicated by the severity of the operation or the subject's response. This included all bleeding episodes from the end of the surgical procedure until the subject was no longer at risk of bleeding due to surgery

    Measured: End of surgery till end of study

  5. Change of Haemoglobin From Pre-surgery Till End of Treatment

    The subject's haemoglobin was measured pre operatively, within 2 hours post operatively and at the End of Treatment Assessment. Changes in the subject's haemoglobin from pre to post operatively and from post operatively to the End of Treatment Assessment were assessed, taking into account the volume of fluid infused into the subject during the intervening periods, any blood transfusions in the intervening periods, the subject's haematocrit at the same time points and the subject's pre dose serum ferritin

    Measured: 2 hrs pre-operatively till end of treatment

  6. Number of Participants With Degree of Bleeding Control Rated as Excellent.

    Investigators made an overall assessment of FACTOR X in controlling bleeding at the End of Treatment Assessment. The degree of bleeding control was rated as excellent, good, poor or unassessable, in accordance with the following criteria listed below:

    • Excellent -Parameters were similar to those in subjects without a bleeding disorder.
    • Good -Parameters were inferior to those in subjects without a bleeding disorder, but no other factor X containing agents were required to restore haemostasis.
    • Poor - Blood loss was excessive (defined as more than twice the pre defined amount that would be expected in a subject without a bleeding disorder for this type of surgery) and/or Haemostasis was not achieved and/or Additional factor X containing agents were required to restore haemostasis.
    • Unassessable -Efficacy was not possible to assess, or Additional factor X containing agents (excluding blood transfusions) were required before efficacy of FACTOR X could be assessed.

    Measured: During and till end of treatment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incremental Recovery After Bolus Dose of FACTOR X

    Incremental Recovery of FX:C after the Pre surgery Bolus Infusion The factor X increment is calculated by subtracting the pre-infusion factor X level from the post-dose value.

    Incremental recovery is calculated by FX increment (IU/dL)/ FX dose (IU/kg)

    Measured: incremental recovery was assessed at approximately 30 minutes after the pre surgery bolus

  2. Dose Per Infusion (IU/kg)

    weight adjusted dose per infusion until a subject was no longer at risk of bleeding due to surgery

    Measured: before surgery, during the post operative period

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 3 Jul 2015). 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?

Clinical Estimation of Volume of Blood Loss During Surgery (time frame: Blood loss is measured during and after surgery, the overall assessment is made after the last dose of FACTOR X.). The study lists 6 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?
