Filter by:To compare the number of breakthrough bleeds under tailored prophylaxis with Human cell line recombinant factor FVIII (Human-cl rhFVIII) with the historical bleeding rate from patients who received Human-cl rhFVIII as on demand treatment.
This study is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this study is to assess the long-term (5+ years) postoperative functional outcomes of elective orthopaedic surgery (EOS) patients from previously reported studies F7HAEM/USA/3/USA and F7HAEM/USA/4/USA (NCT01561391) and furthermore to assess the impact of EOS on psychosocial outcomes, frequency of bleeding episodes and durability of joint surgery.
The project is an observational, multi-central, prospective, non-interventional and open-label data collection study on secondary prophylaxis with recombinant FVIII products in adolescents and adults with severe hemophilia A (FVIII < 1%). It will be a controlled observation of patients on secondary prophylaxis versus on-demand treatment regimen. Patients will be enrolled preferably on a 1:1 basis with regards to prophylaxis and on-demand treatment. The patient enrollment period will be 2 years with a follow-up (observation period) of 2 years for each patient. Based on the primary effectiveness parameters (joint bleeds and overall bleeds per year) an observation period of 2 years is considered sufficient although it has to be admitted that it is rather short to assess the progression of orthopedic status. Previously treated prophylaxis patients with at least 50 exposure days and patients with continuing prophylaxis treatment will be included.
Comparison of the effect of three times a week prophylaxis on all bleeds with on-demand treatment for children with severe Hemophilia A.
Activated prothrombin complex concentrate (aPCC) and recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa) are the only two drugs that are available to treat bleeds in haemophilia A patients with high titer inhibitors. However, management of bleeds in these patients can be challenging due to variation in response and lack of standardized methods to monitor the effect. We hypothesized that significant increase in whole blood clot stability could be achieved when tranexamic acid was given concomitantly with bypassing-agents while thrombin generation remains unaffected. In this prospective crossover study the effect of aPCC and rFVIIa with and without TXA on clot stability and thrombin generation capacity (ETP) were studied, using thromboelastography (ROTEM) and thrombin generation assay (TGA), respectively. In addition, the risk of thrombosis and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) was assessed.
This study is to describe the safety and efficacy of Xyntha® during the usual care setting.
Hemophilia A is an inherited blood disorder in which one protein, Factor VIII, needed to form blood clots is missing or not present in sufficient levels. Hemophilia A causes the clotting process to be slowed and the person experiences bleeds causing serious problems that could lead to disability. The current standard treatment for severe hemophilia A is infusion of FVIII to stop bleeding, or regular scheduled treatment to prevent bleeds from occuring. Due to the short half-life of FVIII, prophylaxis may require treatment as often as every other day. In this trial safety and efficacy of a long-acting recombinant Factor VIII molecule is being evaluated in 50 male subjects, < 12 years of age, with severe Hemophilia A. These subjects will receive open label treatment with long-acting rFVIII for approximately 6 months (or longer until 50 exposure days) on a regular schedule at least once every 7-days. Doses and dose intervals may be adapted to the subject's clinical need. A second group of patients will receive open label treatment with the same drug for 12 weeks on a regular schedule of 2x/week. Patients will attend the treatment center for routine blood samples and will be required to keep an electronic diary. Subjects will be offered participation in an optional extension study to collect observations for at least an additional 50 exposure days.
The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy and safety of rFVIIa BI as part of a six-month on-demand treatment regimen in hemophilia A or B subjects with inhibitors.
Hemophilia is a recessive X chromosome linked genetic disorder of blood coagulation that affects about one in every ten thousand people. Hemarthrosis, which you can begin in childhood, promptly leads to degenerative changes of the articular cartilage which culminate in deformity and degenerative changes early, known as hemophilic arthropathy, which is the most common complication of hemophilia. Aside administration of clotting factor, treatment should address the degenerative changes already present in patients joints. Our objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of articular washing followed by infiltration with corticosteroids and hylan G-F 20, followed by a program of home exercises and/or academy as the previous level of hemophilia patients, in relation to pain relief, and improved function and quality of life.
