Treatment and study plan

Human-cl rhFVIII

Biological

Primary outcomes

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

    Time frame: Maximum two years

    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.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Frequency of Spontaneous Break-through Bleeds

    Time frame: Maximum 2 years

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

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

    Time frame: Maximum 2 years

    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.

  3. Efficacy of Human-cl rhFVIII for Surgical Prophylaxis

    Time frame: Maximum 2 years

    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".

  4. The Occurrence of Any Adverse Event (AE)

    Time frame: Maximum 2 years

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