About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Efficacy and Tolerability of Hizentra® in Subjects Transitioning From Vivaglobin® (16% SCIG Product) to Hizentra® (20% SCIG Product)

The purpose of this study is to measure the changes in the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication in the areas of effectiveness, side effects, and convenience of administration of each medication in Primary Immunodeficiency Disorder (PIDD) subjects transitioning from subcutaneous Vivaglobin® to Hizentra®.

Read the detailed description

This trial will evaluate subjects with Primary Immunodeficiency Disorder (PIDD) who are currently self-infusing Vivaglobin therapy for at least six months prior to changing to Hizentra® therapy. Following screening and enrollment, subjects will continue to self-infuse Vivaglobin® for seven infusions and then be converted to subcutaneous Hizentra® treatment which they will continue for the next 6 months. The study will determine if Hizentra® provides improved subject satisfaction by Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication. Diaries related to the local site reactions, the number of infusion sites per subject/per dose, volume of Hizentra® per site, duration of infusions, systemic side effects of the new medication and dose on IgG levels and antibody titers, and local site reactions with Hizentra®.

What is being measured

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

  1. To measure the changes in the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication in PIDD subjects transitioning from subcutaneous Vivaglobin® to Hizentra®.

    Subjects complete the TSQM at each study visit

    Measured: 32 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To compare the incidence of local site reactions in subjects self-infusing with Vivaglobin® transitioning to Hizentra®.

    Study subjects complete a weekly infusion diary that is collected at each study visit.

    Measured: 32 weeks

  2. To compare the steady state IgG levels in subjects self-infusing with Vivaglobin® transitioning to Hizentra®.

    IgG levels are obtained at each visit.

    Measured: 32 weeks
