About this study

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the changes of antibodies and inhibitors against the coagulation factor VIII in patients with severe hemophilia A receiving emicizumab therapy. No additional visits or procedures are planned. Patients in this study will continue to receive their routine care and analysis will be done from left over samples from routine visits.

What is being measured

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

  1. FVIII inhibitor development in inhibitor negative subjects

    Rate of FVIII inhibitor development during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor negative subjects. Assessed with Bethesda Assay (BU/ml). Number of patients who develop an FVIII inhibitor within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor negative at start of the study.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. FVIII antibody development in inhibitor negative subjects

    Rate of FVIII antibody development during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor negative subjects. FVIII anti drug antibody (ADA) is assessed by FVIII specific ELISA (OD=Optical Density). Number of patients who develop an FVIII antibody (ADA) within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor negative at start of the study.

    Measured: 3 years

  3. FVIII inhibitor disappearance in inhibitor positive subjects

    Rate of FVIII inhibitor disappearance during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor positive subjects. Assessed with Bethesda Assay (BU/ml). Number of patients who loose an FVIII inhibitor within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor positive at start of the study.

    Measured: 3 years

  4. FVIII antibody disappearance in inhibitor positive subjects

    Rate of FVIII antibody disappearance during three years of emicizumab prophylaxis in inhibitor positive subjects. FVIII anti drug antibody (ADA) is assessed by FVIII specific ELISA (OD=Optical Density). Number of patients who develop an FVIII antibody within the study period, but were FVIII inhibitor positive at start of the study.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Anti-FVIII inhibitor development

    Anti-FVIII inhibitor development (median BU/ml) over time. Assessed with Bethesda Assay (BU/ml). Description of inhibitor development in the different patient groups within the study period. Cut off is 0,6 BU/ml.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Anti-FVIII antibody development

    Anti-FVIII antibody development (median arbitrary units, OD) over time. Description of antibody development in the different patient groups within the study period.

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Time to negative inhibitor titers

    Time to negative inhibitor titers. Assessed with Bethesda Assay (BU/ml). Description of the Time (days) observed for FVIII inhibitor disappearance within the study period in the patient groups. Cut off for inhibitor titer is 0,6 BU/ml.

    Measured: 3 years

  4. Treatment of bleeds

    Description of the use of FVIII and/or Bypassing agents treatment in addition to Emicizumab treatment in case of bleeds.

    Measured: 3 years

  5. Response to treatment

    Classification of bleeds as Effective, Partially Effective, Ineffective. Defined as: Effective: Bleeding episode responded to the usual number of injections or dose of FVIII as expected by the treating physician; Partially Effective: The bleeding episode responded with a higher number of injections and/or dose as expected by the treating physician; Ineffective: Routine failure to control hemostasis or hemostatic control required additional agents

    Measured: 3 years

  6. Quality of the antibody response (FVIII epitopes)

    Description of the location of FVIII epitopes over time, assessed by epitope mapping technique (ELISA)

    Measured: 3 years

  7. Quality of the antibody response (IgG subclasses)

    Description of a potential immune response over time, assessed by IgG subclass determination (ELISA).

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Severe Hemophilia A and Severe Hemophilia A With Inhibitor, run by Christoph Königs 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 3 inclusion and 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jul 2023. 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Stephan Schultze-Strasser, Dr. (+496963016998, stephan.schultze-strasser@kgu.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

FVIII inhibitor development in inhibitor negative subjects (time frame: 3 years). The study lists 4 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 10 Jul 2023.
