About this study

Official title: Osteoporosis Screening in Adult Patients With Haemophilia and Influence of Physical Activity on the Prevalence of Osteoporosis

The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of osteoporosis in adult patients with haemophilia.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of osteoporosis in adult patients with haemophilia. Subsequently, the ascertained prevalence of osteoporosis in patients with haemophilia will be compared to the latest published data of osteoporosis in Germany. Furthermore, the impact of severity of haemophilia, comorbidities as well as the role of both physical activity and individual joint condition as influencing factors on the presence of osteoporosis will be analysed by this study.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT04524481
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with mild haemophilia A or B(FVIII or IX >5 %, ≥ 18 years' old)
Patients with moderate haemophilia A or B(FVIII or IX 1-5 %, ≥ 18 years' old)
Patients with severe haemophilia A or B(FVIII or IX <1 %, ≥ 18 years' old)

What is being measured

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

  1. bone mass/bone density maesurement

    All patients with haemophilia of this study will receive a standardised bone density measurement by using the same dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) device.

    Measured: 15 minutes

  2. blood sample (Vit. D/Calcium)

    The blood samples of all patients with haemophilia will be tested according to the guidelines of the confederation of osteology (DVO). These blood samples are necessary to assess the osteoporosis by measuring the Vitamin-D and Calcium level.

    Measured: 10 minutes

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. haemophilia related clinical data

    All patients with haemophilia record their individual substitution regime and bleeding events in individual patients' diaries. The patients are used to record and submit all necessary information about bleeding events, factor replacement regime. By doing so, the individual treatment regime per week as well as the annual (joint) bleeding rate will be assessed one year retrospectively.

    Measured: 10 minutes

  2. level of physical activity

    In order to assess the individual level of physical activity, an individual movement profile will be created. For this purpose, the activity of each patient with haemophilia will be recorded by an electronic activity tracker. In addition, the grade of individual physical activity will be assessed on the basis of questionnaires.

    Measured: non determinable

  3. orthopaedic joint status

    The clinical joint status will be examined in all patients with haemophilia by the World Federation Joint Examination Score and Haemophilia Joint Health Score.

    Measured: 45 minutes

  4. pain condition

    The pain condition will be examined in terms of pressure pain thresholds. By using an algometer device (Wagner Instruments, USA) with a robe area of 1 cm2 the individual pain sensitivity will be measured.

    Measured: 15 minutes

  5. subjective quality of life and subjective physical performance

    The examination of these parameters is carried out by the standardised questionnaires SF-36 (quality of life) and the HEP-Test-Q (subjective physical performance).

    Measured: 10 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Osteoporosis and Haemophilia, run by PD Dr. Andreas Strauß at 1 site in Germany.

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 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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 Andreas Strauß, PD Dr. (004922828714176, andreas.strauss@ukbonn.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

bone mass/bone density maesurement (time frame: 15 minutes). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04524481, 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 29 Oct 2021.
