About this study

Official title: An Investigator-initiated Study on rFVIIa Prophylaxis in Children With Hemophilia A and Inhibitors - European Initiative to Prevent Joint Damage in Hemophilia A Children With Inhibitors

The study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a prophylactic treatment with recombinant activated FVII in reducing the frequency of joint bleeds and the development of joint damage in children with hemophilia A who develop high-titer inhibitors.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicentre, randomised, controlled study designed to gain evidence of the advantage of the prophylactic, daily treatment with recombinant activated FVII as compared to the conventional on demand therapy in reducing the bleeding frequency and preserving the orthopaedic status in hemophilic children with inhibitors.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing recombinant activated factor VII in people with Hemophilia A With Inhibitors, run by Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda, Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico at 15 sites in 6 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 7 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Apr 2013. 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 United States, Germany, Italy, Spain, Romania and 1 more country. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Total number of joint bleeds. (time frame: 18 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 Apr 2013.
