About this study

Official title: Reformulated BeneFIX Efficacy and Safety After Conversion From a pdFIX

The purpose of this study is to collect data around the period of the conversion from plasma-derived Factor IX (pdFIX) to BeneFIX. The main information collected will be: a retrospective history of the bleedings in the 3-month period before the conversion, the recovery with pdFIX just before the conversion and with BeneFIX just after the conversion, and a prospective history of the bleedings in the 3 month period following the conversion.

Read the detailed description

The switch to BeneFIX has already been decided by the investigator. Patients will be followed up to 3 months after the switch.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Reporting Efficacy

    Clinical efficacy was measured by number/location of bleeding episodes, number of injections per bleeding, factor IX consumption, global assessment of efficacy by investigator and patient; biological efficacy (recovery) with BeneFIX was measured just after conversion.

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Factor IX recovery in people with Hemophilia B, run by Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer at 8 sites in France.

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 7 inclusion and 8 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 8 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in France. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 29 Jun 2010). 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?

Number of Participants Reporting Efficacy (time frame: 4 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 8 Jun 2011.
