BAY14-2222 Prophylaxis and Joint Function Improvement (Adults)

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of prophylactic treatment on the number of joint bleeds and quality of life in severe hemophilia A subjects compared to on-demand treatment in a one-group two-treatment schedule design.

In addition, the effect of prophylactic treatment on the joint function, the number of all bleeds, and on the quality of life compared to on-demand treatment and health-economic data will be assessed.

  • On-demand therapy with any FVIII

Exclusion criteria

Treatment and study plan

Kogenate (BAY14-2222)

Drug

One group two treatment schedules, first on-demand then switch to prophylaxis

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Joint Bleeds

    Time frame: Months 1-6 (on-demand treatment) and 8-13 (prophylactic treatment)

    Number of joint bleeds during Months 8-13 compared to number of joint bleeds during Months 1-6

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of All Bleeds

    Time frame: Months 1-6 (on-demand treatment) and 8-13 (prophylactic treatment)

    Mean number of all bleeds during Months 8-13 (prophylactic) compared to mean number of all bleeds during Months 1-6 (on-demand)

  2. Physical Assessment Compared to On-demand Treatment as Determined by the Gilbert Score

    Time frame: Month 13 (end of prophylactic treatment) and Month 6 (end of on-demand treatment)

    Total score with a range of 0-100, evaluating ankle, knee and elbow, 0 indicates normal function, higher values indicate joint damage

  3. Quality of Life Compared to On-demand Treatment as Measured by the Haemo-QoL A Questionnaire

    Time frame: Month 13 (end of prophylactic treatment) and Month 6 (end of on-demand treatment)

    Total transformed score with a range of 0-100, higher values indicate better outcome. 41 items in 6 domains: physical functioning; role functioning; worry; consequences; positive affect; treatment concern.
