Trial summary

Severe haemophilia A and B (SHA, SHB) are X - linked inherited bleeding disorders, characterised by factor VIII and IX levels of <1 IU/dL respectively. The mainstay of treatment in SHA and SHB is replacement therapy with intravenous infusions of factor VIII and IX. Read more about this study

About this study

Severe haemophilia A and B (SHA, SHB) are X - linked inherited bleeding disorders, characterised by factor VIII and IX levels of <1 IU/dL respectively. The mainstay of treatment in SHA and SHB is replacement therapy with intravenous infusions of factor VIII and IX. However, there is significant variability in the bleeding phenotype within severe haemophiliacs with some presenting with minimal bleeding episodes even on less intensive treatment regimens. A significant contributor to inter-individual variability in the bleeding phenotype is the coagulation phenotype, but there are no established assays in routine clinical practice that can be used to quantify this. This study aims to study novel assays and characterise the observed phenotypic heterogeneity.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Thrombophilia screenDiagnostic test

    Thrombophilia screen (including antithrombin activity (AT:Ac), protein S antigen (PS:free), protein C activity (PC:Ac) , genetic analysis for FV Leiden and Prothrombin 3'UTR mutations and screening for lupus anticoagulant.

  • Initiation pathway analysisDiagnostic test

    Evaluation of inter-individual variability in regulation of TF.VIIa.Xa.TFPI complex (tissue factor, activated Factor VII, activated factor X, tissue factor pathway inhibitor)

What is being measured

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

  1. Initiation pathway correlation with clinical phenotype

    Correlate lab assays that characterise initiation pathway with clinical phenotype.

    Measured: Within 18 months of consent

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Correlation analysis between FVIII:C/FIX:C levels and whole blood clotting time, thrombin generation in platelet poor plasma.

    Measured: Within 18 months of consent

  2. Evaluation the sensitivity and specificity of global assays for disease severity and clinical phenotype.

    Measured: Within 18 months of consent

  3. Correlation analysis between activation threshold of initiation pathway to thrombin generation and clinical phenotype

    Measured: Within 18 months of consent

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Haemophilia, run by Royal Free Hospital NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 6 inclusion and 2 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 27 Mar 2019. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Thomas Roberts (02078302068, thomas.roberts1@nhs.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Initiation pathway correlation with clinical phenotype (time frame: Within 18 months of consent). 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 27 Mar 2019.
