About this study

The goal of this observational study is to assess if the version A of the HemA EnzySystem, a novel portable coagulation testing platform, can be used in patients with hemophilia A treated with Factor VIII Bypassing Agent (FEIBA). The main question[s] it aims to answer are:

  • Can the version A of the HemA EnzySystem can record thrombin generation within a time frame of 60 min in fresh whole blood samples of patients with hemophilia A treated with FEIBA?
  • Are the TGA results of the version A of the HemA EnzySystem in agreement with the TGA results obtained with conventional methods in fresh non frozen plasma?

Participants are asked to fill in a questionnaire regarding their general health and hemophilia treatment. Subsequently, blood will be drawn from the patients before, and at 30, 120, and 240 minutes after FEIBA administration. Whole blood is immediately tested using the Version A HemA EnzySystem, and plasma is generated for testing with the Ceveron s100 (Technoclone). Leftover samples are frozen for later additional coagulation testing.

Read the detailed description

Rationale: Hemophilia is an X-linked hemostatic bleeding disorder characterized by a lack of coagulation factor VIII activity (HemA) or factor IX activity (HemB). Spontaneous major bleeding in joints and muscles frequently occur when factor activity levels are low. Currently, there is a growing evidence that the bleeding phenotype of hemophilia A patients is not only reflected by the actual factor VIII activity level, as there is a large variety in bleeding among patients with similar factor VIII activity.

Currently, patients with severe Hemophilia A are treated with either FVIII containing products or Emicizumab. Initially emicizumab was described for patients who developed inhibitors as inhibitors do not interfere with emicizumab. Despite, bleeding complications still may occur and therefore bypassing therapies are still of great importance. Unfortunately, monitoring treatment with these drugs is a challenge.

Thrombin generation profile may be an additional tool in hemophilia patients to differentiate between bleeding phenotype, to guide prophylactic replacement therapy and adjust bypassing therapy, especially in patients treated with emicizumab. Based on recent studies, thrombin generation as a global hemostasis assay offers an opportunity to assess the hemostatic capacity of patients, and therefore has much potential for monitoring therapy. To facilitate this, a hand-held in vitro diagnostic medical device able to simultaneously measure multiple disease biomarkers with a single drop of blood is currently in development, focusing on simultaneous measurements of Factor VIII activity and Thrombin generation.

Objective: The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the version A of the HemA EnzySystem can record thrombin generation within a time frame of 60 min in fresh whole blood samples of patients with hemophilia A treated with Factor VIII Bypassing Agent (FEIBA). As secondary objective, the study results will be validated with a Thrombin Generation Assay (TGA) measured in freshly obtained non frozen plasma.

Study design: This is a cross-sectional observational study. All participants are asked to fill a questionnaire prior to blood collection of four tubes. Blood sample measurements will be conducted within a two-hour time frame using the version A of the HemA EnzySystem and the preparation of plasma using a standard TGA assay. Any remaining blood material will be processed and stored.

Study population: The study population consists of 6 patients treated with FEIBA. In total, at least 24 samples are tested, four for each patient (t=0, 30, 120 and 240 minutes).

What participants receive

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

  • Thrombin generation assay (EnzySystem HemA version A - whole blood)Diagnostic test

    Whole blood obtained by venipuncture is immediately tested with the EnzySystem HemA version A), before and 0, 30, 120 and 240 minutes after administration of FEIBA.

  • Thrombin generation assay (Ceveron s100 (Technoclone) - fresh plasma)Diagnostic test

    Whole blood is centrifuged to obtain plasma. The fresh plasma is tested using the Ceveron s100.

  • Additional coagulation testsDiagnostic test

    Plasma samples are frozen for later coagulation testing. The following tests are performed:

    Factor VIII activity von Willebrand Factor antigen levels von Willebrand Factor ristocetin activity levels Prothrombin Fragment 1+2 levels ADAMTS13 activity FVIII antigen levels Nijmegen Hemostasis Assay

What is being measured

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

  1. Time between venipuncture and TGA result

    The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the EnzySystem Thrombin Generation assay can record thrombin generation within a time frame of 60 min. Fresh whole blood samples of patients with hemophilia A on prophylactic or on-demand FEIBA treatment are used and tested in a near-patient setting at the Institute of Hematology and Transfusion Medicine (IHiT)

    Measured: 2 hours

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Agreement between TGA obtained with the EnzySystem HemA version A and conventional TGA results

    Outcome of the TGAlum measured with the version A of the HemA EnzySystem will be compared to the reference TGA which is the standard method of testing at the IHiT to determine patients coagulation status. The reference TGA will be evaluated using the Ceveron by Technoclone

    Measured: 6 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hemophilia A With Inhibitor and Hemophilia A, run by Enzyre B.V. at 1 site in Poland.

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 7 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 10 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 Poland. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Time between venipuncture and TGA result (time frame: 2 hours). 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 Apr 2024.
