What is being measured

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

  1. Immunogenicity of Human-cl rhFVIII: Incidence of Inhibitors

    The number of patients developing FVIII inhibitors was observed during the observation period by assessing inhibitor development by the modified Bethesda assay (Nijmegen modification) using congenital FVIII-deficient human plasma spiked with Human-cl rhFVIII. The definition threshold for a "positive" inhibitor was if the modified Bethesda assay resulted in a titre ≥0.6 BU/mL at any time point during the observation period.

    Measured: Maximum two years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Frequency of Spontaneous Break-through Bleeds

    The annualized bleeding rate (ABR) was calculated during the time of prophylactic treatment with Human-cl rhFVIII for spontaneous bleeding events (BEs).

    Measured: Maximum 2 years

  2. Efficacy of Human-cl rhFVIII for the Treatment of Bleeds

    A personal efficacy assessment (final outcome) to assess the efficacy of Human-cl rhFVIII for the on-demand treatment of bleeding episodes (BEs) at the end of a BE. Efficacy was assessed using a four-point scale (excellent, good, moderate, none) by the patient's parent(s)/legal guardian(s) together with the investigator in case of on site treatment.

    Measured: Maximum 2 years

  3. Efficacy of Human-cl rhFVIII for Surgical Prophylaxis

    An overall efficacy assessment to assess the efficacy of human-cl rhFVIII in surgical prophylaxis of minor and major surgeries. The efficacy assessment was analyzed using a four-point scale (excellent, good, moderate, none). If surgeries could not be assessed due to limited data available or having taken place outside the study site, the results were classified as "not done".

    Measured: Maximum 2 years

  4. The Occurrence of Any Adverse Event (AE)

    The frequency of AEs, as monitored throughout the whole study by the number of patients with at least one adverse event occurrence.

    Measured: Maximum 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Human-cl rhFVIII in people with Severe Hemophilia A, run by Octapharma at 15 sites in 9 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 1 inclusion and 3 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 19 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in Canada, France, India, Ukraine, United States and 4 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 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 17 Dec 2019). 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?

Immunogenicity of Human-cl rhFVIII: Incidence of Inhibitors (time frame: Maximum two years). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Jan 2021.
