What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Incidence of Inhibitory Antibodies Against Coagulation Factor IX (FIX) Defined as Titre Above or Equal to 0.6 Bethesda Units (BU)
Inhibitors were analysed with either the Nijmegen modified factor IX Bethesda assay or a heat/cold Nijmegen modified factor IX Bethesda assay. Number of participants who developed inhibitory antibodies against factor IX are reported.
Measured: From week 0 to week 52
Incidence of Inhibitory Antibodies Against Coagulation Factor IX (FIX) Defined as Titre Above or Equal to 0.6 Bethesda Units (BU)
Inhibitors were analysed with either the Nijmegen modified factor IX Bethesda assay or a heat/cold Nijmegen modified factor IX Bethesda assay. Number of participants who developed inhibitory antibodies against factor IX are reported.
Measured: From week 52 to End of trial (EOT) (approximately week 544)
Secondary outcomes (27)
Number of Bleeding Episodes During Prophylaxis
The number of bleeding episodes per participant during routine prophylaxis was assessed using the individual annualised bleeding rates (bleeding episodes per participant per year).
Measured: From week 0 to EOT (approximately week 544)
Haemostatic Effect of N9-GP in Treatment of Bleeding Episodes by 4-point Categorical Scale for Haemostatic Response (Excellent, Good, Moderate and Poor)
Description of the haemostatic effect of nonacog beta pegol when used for treatment of bleeding episodes was measured and listed according to the four point scale for haemostatic response as below:
- Excellent - abrupt pain relief and/or clear improvement in objective signs of bleeding within 8 hours after a single infusion.
- Good - noticeable pain relief and/or improvement in signs of bleeding within 8 hours after a single injection.
- Moderate - probable or slight beneficial effect within the first 8 hours after the first injection but requiring more than one infusion within 8 hours.
- Poor - no improvement, or worsening of symptoms within 8 hours after two injections.
A success rate was calculated based on counting good or excellent as successes and poor and moderate as failures.
Measured: From week 0 to EOT (approximately week 544)
Incremental Recovery at 30 Minutes (IR30min)
The incremental recovery was calculated by dividing the baseline-subtracted factor IX activity Units per milliliter (U/mL) measured in plasma 30 min after dosing by the dose injected at time 0 expressed as units per kilogram (U/kg) body weight.
Measured: Week 0 (30 minutes after first exposure)
Trough Level (Single-dose )
The mean pre-dose factor IX levels was measured with the one-stage clotting assay during the trial. Geometric mean of the lowest activity of factor IX recorded at week 0 (immediately before next dose was given).
Measured: Week 0 (one week after first exposure)
Terminal Half-life (t1/2)
Terminal half life is presented at week 0, 30 minutes until one week after first exposure.
Measured: Week 0 (30 minutes until one week after first exposure)
Trough Level (Steady State)
The mean pre-dose factor IX levels was measured with the one-stage clotting assay during the trial.

The scale range for each 6 domains was (0-100) with lower score indicating higher treatment satisfaction. HEMO-SAT was assessed for the children of age group 4-7 years and 8-12 years. Domain score and total score were calculated using following formula - 1/4 (sum of answered items / Number of answered item - 1) x 100.
