About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics of Haemocomplettan® P in Subjects With Congenital Fibrinogen Deficiency

This study evaluated the single-dose pharmacokinetics of human fibrinogen concentrate and clot strength (maximum clot firmness [MCF]) in subjects with congenital fibrinogen deficiency. MCF was measured to demonstrate the functional activity of replacement fibrinogen when a fixed dose of human fibrinogen concentrate was administered.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Clot Firmness (MCF)

    MCF is a functional parameter that depends on the activation of coagulation, the fibrinogen content of the sample (in plasma), and the polymerization and crosslinking of the fibrin network. MCF was determined by rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) testing.

    Measured: Pre-infusion and 1 hour post-infusion

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Terminal Elimination Half-life (t1/2)

    t1/2 for fibrinogen activity was determined from samples taken at 12 timepoints during the specified time frame.

    Measured: 0.5 hours to 13 days post-infusion

  2. Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax for fibrinogen activity was determined from samples taken at 12 timepoints during the specified time frame.

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 13 days post-infusion

  3. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve (AUC) Standardized for 70 mg/kg Body Weight Dose

    AUC for fibrinogen activity was determined from samples taken at 12 timepoints during the specified time frame.

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 13 days post-infusion

  4. Clearance (Cl)

    Cl for fibrinogen activity was determined from samples taken at 12 timepoints during the specified time frame.

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 13 days post-infusion

  5. Mean Residence Time (MRT)

    MRT for fibrinogen activity was determined from samples taken at 12 timepoints during the specified time frame.

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 13 days post-infusion

  6. Volume of Distribution at Steady State (Vss)

    Vss for fibrinogen activity was determined from samples taken at 11 timepoints during the specified time frame.

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 13 days post-infusion

  7. Incremental In Vivo Recovery (IVR)

    Maximum fibrinogen activity increase in plasma per mg/kg dosed

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 4 hours post-infusion

  8. Classical In Vivo Recovery (IVR)

    Maximum fibrinogen activity increase in plasma times plasma volume per mg/kg dose

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 4 hours post-infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Human Fibrinogen Concentrate in people with Fibrinogen Deficiency, run by CSL Behring at 15 sites in 2 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 15 Sep 2016. 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 Italy, United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 10 Jul 2009). 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?

Maximum Clot Firmness (MCF) (time frame: Pre-infusion and 1 hour post-infusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00496262, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 15 Sep 2016.
