What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With Inhibitory Antibodies to Factor VIII (FVIII)
Inhibitory antibodies to FVIII were measured using the Nijmegen modification of the Bethesda assay. Incidence of an FVIII inhibitory antibody was defined as an inhibitor level ≥0.6 Bethesda units [BU].
Measured: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.
Secondary outcomes (22)
Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR)
The annualized bleeding rate (ABR) during the prophylaxis period was assessed based upon each individual bleeding episode, spontaneous or traumatic, recorded in the participant´s diary and/or recorded in the physician/nurse/study site notes. The annualized bleeding rate was analyzed using a generalized linear model framework assuming a negative binomial distribution with a logarithmic link function and presence or absence of target joints and age cohort as covariates and duration of the observation period in years as offset. Point estimates for the mean and 95% confidence intervals are presented.
Measured: During prophylaxis period of 6 months or ≥ 50 EDs, whichever occurs last
Consumption of BAX 855: Number of Prophylactic Infusions Per Month Per Participant
Measured: During prophylaxis period of 6 months or ≥ 50 EDs, whichever occurs last
Consumption of BAX 855: Number of Prophylactic Infusions Per Year (Annualized) Per Participant
Measured: During prophylaxis period of 6 months or ≥ 50 EDs, whichever occurs last
Consumption of BAX 855: Weight-adjusted Dose of Prophylactic Infusions Per Month Per Participant
Measured: During prophylaxis period of 6 months or ≥ 50 EDs, whichever occurs last
Consumption of BAX 855: Weight-adjusted Dose of Prophylactic Infusions Per Year (Annualized) Per Participant
Measured: During prophylaxis period of 6 months or ≥ 50 EDs, whichever occurs last
Consumption of BAX 855: Number of Infusions Per Bleeding Episode
Measured: During prophylaxis period of 6 months or ≥ 50 EDs, whichever occurs last
Consumption of BAX 855: Weight-adjusted Dose Per Bleeding Episode
Measured: During prophylaxis period of 6 months or ≥ 50 EDs, whichever occurs last
Hemostatic Efficacy Rating for Bleeding Episodes Treated With BAX 855 at Resolution of Bleed
Rating Scale for Treatment of Bleeding Episodes (BEs) (4-point ordinal scale): Excellent: Full relief of pain and cessation of objective signs of bleeding (eg, swelling, tenderness, and decreased range of motion in the case of musculoskeletal hemorrhage) after a single infusion. No additional infusion required for the control of bleeding. Administration of further infusions to maintain hemostasis did not affect this scoring. Good: Definite pain relief and/or improvement in signs of bleeding after a single infusion. Possibly requires more than 1 infusion for complete resolution. Fair: Probable and/or slight relief of pain and slight improvement in signs of bleeding after single infusion. Required more than 1 infusion for complete resolution. None: No improvement or condition worsens.
Measured: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.
Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Possibly or Probably Related to BAX 855
Measured: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.
Non-serious Adverse Events Possibly or Probably Related to BAX 855
Measured: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Vital Signs
Vital signs: body temperature (°C), respiratory rate (breaths/min), pulse rate (beats/min), and systolic and diastolic blood pressure (mmHg). For each vital sign value that changed from normal at baseline to abnormal at any subsequent study visit, the Investigator determined if the value was clinically significant (i.e. and adverse event), or not.
Measured: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.
Number of Clinically Significant Changes in Clinical Laboratory Parameters (Hematology, Clinical Chemistry, Lipids)
The HEMATOLOGY PANEL consisted of complete blood count: hemoglobin, hematocrit, erythrocytes (ie, red blood cell count), leukocytes (ie, white blood cell count) with differential (ie, basophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, and neutrophils), mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, and platelet count. The CLINICAL CHEMISTRY PANEL consisted of sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, total protein, albumin, ALT, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and glucose. The LIPID PANEL consisted of cholesterol, very low density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein, high density lipoprotein, and triglycerides. For each laboratory parameter value that changed from normal at baseline to abnormal at any subsequent study visit, the Investigator determined if the value was clinically significant, or not.
Measured: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.
Positive Post-baseline Binding Antibodies to Factor VIII (FVIII), Polyethylene Glycol-Factor VIII (PEG-FVIII), PEG and Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) Proteins
Binding antibodies to FVIII and PEG-FVIII, as well as to PEG, were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Both immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin M (IgM) binding antibodies for FVIII, BAX 855, and PEG were tested at each study visit. Testing for binding antibodies to CHO was performed on citrate-anti-coagulated plasma using an ELISA employing polyclonal anti-human IgG antibodies. This outcome measure includes antibodies that were transient (antibody developed after exposure to BAX 855 but not present at study termination/completion) and pre-existent (antibody originally present before exposure to BAX 855).
Measured: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant) - Plasma/Albumin Free Method and PEGylated Recombinant Factor VIII in people with Hemophilia A, run by Baxalta now part of Shire at 39 sites in 11 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 12 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 24 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 39 sites in United States, Malaysia, United Kingdom, Turkey (Türkiye), Bulgaria and 6 more countries. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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 5 Dec 2016). 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 With Inhibitory Antibodies to Factor VIII (FVIII) (time frame: After first exposure to BAX 855 until completion of study - approx. 6 months per participant.). 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 NCT02210091, 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 24 May 2021.
