Trial summary

Hemophilia A and B are hereditary sex-linked deficiencies of coagulation factors VIII and IX characterized by bleeding. Their modern therapy increases life expectancy and risk of age-related diseases, e.g., osteoporosis. Hemophilia-specific risk factors impair formation of peak bone mass and accelerate bone loss.

About this study

Hemophilia A and B are hereditary sex-linked deficiencies of coagulation factors VIII and IX characterized by bleeding. Their modern therapy increases life expectancy and risk of age-related diseases, e.g., osteoporosis.

Hemophilia-specific risk factors impair formation of peak bone mass and accelerate bone loss. Fractures are more frequent in hemophilic men vs. age-matched men and induce bleeding which is aggravated by manipulations and surgical intervention.

The hypothesis of this study is that hemophilic men have poor bone microarchitecture (assessed by High-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT)) related to an imbalance between bone formation and resorption (assessed by bone turnover markers (BTM) and bone biomarkers).

The study aims to assess the difference in low trabecular number (Tb.N) at the distal radius between hemophilic men (cases) and age- height-weight-ethnicity and smoking-matched healthy men (controls). Correlation between BTM and Tb.N will be also studied.

Biologic markers of bone remodeling (C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (PINP), N-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (CTX-I), periostin) will be studied.

What participants receive

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

  • HR-pQCTRadiation

    Patients will have a unique HR-pQCT scanner imaging to study their bone microarchitecture

  • Blood sampleBiological

    Patients will have a unique blood sampling of 10 mL for the measurements of sera PINP, CTX-I, periostin levels

  • Dual energy X-ray absorptiometryRadiation

    A dual energy X-ray absorptiometry scan of lumbar spine, hip, distal radius and whole body, body composition, lateral spine will be performed.

What is being measured

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

  1. number of trabecular at distal tibia

    The number of trabecular at distal tibia will be performed and compared to the values available for the healthy control group

    Measured: 3 months following the inclusion

  2. number of trabecular at distal radius

    The number of trabecular at distal radius will be performed and compared to the values available for the healthy control group

    Measured: 3 months following the inclusion

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Sera bone remodeling biomarkers

    This biomarkers will be performed:

    • PINP (ng/ml)
    • CTX-1 (ng/ml)
    • Periostin (ng/ml)

    Measured: 3 months following the inclusion

  2. reflection of bone strength

    Micro-Finite Element Analysis (µFEA) reflection of bone strength will be performed and compared to the values available for the healthy control group

    Measured: 3 months following the inclusion

  3. Trabecular Bone Score (TBS)

    Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) will be performed and compared to the values available for the healthy control group The trabecular bone score is a measure of bone texture correlated with bone microarchitecture and a marker for the risk of osteoporosis

    Measured: 3 months following the inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HR-pQCT, Blood sample and Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in people with Severe Hemophilia A and Osteoporosis, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 8 inclusion and 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2024. 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 France. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: More Hardware). 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?

number of trabecular at distal tibia (time frame: 3 months following the inclusion). 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?
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 18 Apr 2024.
