Trial summary

A novel immuno-assay is being evaluated for the measurement of Factor VIII. Current procedure measures a rate assay which is subject to much artefact. The hypothesis is that the new assay will give a reading of absolute quantities of FVIII which will provide a more suitable indicator of FVIII content for clotting… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetic (PK) Analysis of a Novel Immunoassay in Hemophilia A

A novel immuno-assay is being evaluated for the measurement of Factor VIII. Current procedure measures a rate assay which is subject to much artefact. The hypothesis is that the new assay will give a reading of absolute quantities of FVIII which will provide a more suitable indicator of FVIII content for clotting factor manufacturers, physicians and patients.

Read the detailed description

Remnant samples collected in a clinical laboratory are assayed with the new procedure and compared with the standard functional activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) assay. A PK study in seven study subjects with hemophilia A is being carried out using five different commercially licensed factor VIII concentrates and the blood samples drawn for the PK analysis are being measured for FVIII with the novel assay and compared with the standard APTT assay. The concentrates used in the PK studies are also being applied to the two assay systems to determine each product's specific activity.

Study groups in NCT00839202
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
FVIII immuno-assayExperimentalThe study is not designed as a therapeutic evaluation, but an assessment of clotting factor VIII timed responses after the infusion of specified doses of licensed clotting factor VIII concentrates. The purpose of the study is to measure the levels of infused licensed clotting factor VIII by standard assay techniques and comparing these standard assays with an experimental assay. Measurements of possible co-factors that might impact the results were also carried out.
Receives: Other: FVIII immuno-assay

What is being measured

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

    Measured: 48 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The possible role of VWF, factor concentrate type and non-inhibitory antibody presence or absence on the FVIII antigen levels

    Measured: 48 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FVIII immuno-assay in people with Hemophilia A, run by Children's Hospital Los Angeles at 1 site in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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 1 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The level of Factor VIII in pMols (time frame: 48 hours). 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 1 Feb 2017.
