Filter by:This study is for young children with severe hemophilia A who have previously not been treated with BAX855 or other FVIII concentrates. The main aim of the study is to check for side effects from treatment with BAX855. This includes the buildup of antibodies against FVIII which may stop BAX855 from working properly. Another aim is to learn how well BAX855 controls bleeding. In this study, the children can receive BAX855 either as preventative treatment (prophylaxis), or as needed to treat bleeding (on-demand). In case a participant develops antibodies, treatment will be provided as part of the study.
Research project whose main objective is to evaluate the use of a technology platform (uPatient) to register the prophylactic treatment of patients with hemophilia treated in different Hematology and Hemotherapy services of several hospitals in Spain.
This study is being conducted by BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. as an open label, dose escalation study in order to determine the safety and efficacy of valoctocogene roxaparvovec (an Adenovirus-Associated Virus based gene therapy vector in participants with severe haemophilia A.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of single ascending IV doses of a Factor IX (FIX) Gene Therapy in up to 16 Adults with Hemophilia B.
The study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a prophylactic treatment with recombinant activated FVII in reducing the frequency of joint bleeds and the development of joint damage in children with hemophilia A who develop high-titer inhibitors.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of giving a normal factor IX gene to treat individuals who have an abnormal or no factor IX gene. Recruitment will be limited to adults (≥ 18 years) with a confirmed diagnosis of hemophilia B (HB), resulting from a missense mutation in the coagulation factor IX (FIX) gene or a nonsense mutation that has not been associated with an inhibitor. Only subjects who have no evidence of active hepatitis or anti-hFIX antibodies, and who have been treated/exposed to Factor IX concentrates for at least ten years and have had an average of 3 bleeding episodes per year requiring FIX administration will be enrolled. Patients will be recruited within the United States for treatment at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and patients will be recruited in England and other countries for treatment in London by our British collaborators.
The study will be investigating pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy in patients less than 12 years of age with severe hemophilia A that have been previously treated with Factor VIII products ( including blood products).
Hemophilia, which results from deficiency of factor VIII or IX, is a common hereditary X-linked bleeding disorder affecting up to 10/100,000 population. About 60-70% of them have severe disease (factor level <1%). This group is characterized by the occurrence of frequent spontaneous bleeding into joints and soft tissues. If inadequately treated, it results in progressive damage to joints and muscles leading to crippling deformities. Close clinical observation of these patients over many years has shown that those with >1% levels have much less bleeding compared to those with less than 1%. This observation has gained immense clinical importance in planning therapy for these patients. To prevent progressive joint damage, the missing factor needs to be replaced. Much has evolved in this practice in the last 50 years. From administration of whole blood in the beginning, to plasma and cryoprecipitate, to purified plasma-derived concentrates and finally recombinant factor concentrates. The standard of therapy now is to replace factors frequently enough to maintain >1% factor levels at all times (“prophylaxis”) or administer immediately on premonition or earliest signs of bleeding (“on demand” therapy). This has greatly enhanced the quality of life of people with hemophilia. However, the optimal regimens of factor replacement remain to be defined. The definition of what is optimal management of this chronic condition, currently incurable for the vast majority of patients, varies significantly in different parts of the world, depending on practicality and social expectations. Models have care have been developed in Western countries based on careful documentation of outcome over many years. Such data is lacking from developing countries. This multi-center study aims to systematically record the outcome of musculoskeletal function in people with hemophilia in developing countries for the first time and provide information that can help plan care for the 80% of all hemophiliacs in the world who live in these countries. Currently there is no well documented model of care at the range of factor replacement practiced in these countries nor is there any significant information on the long-term outcome of musculo-skeletal function among these patients.
