Annualized Bleeding Rate
Annualized bleeding rate = (number of bleeding episodes during the efficacy period / total number of days during the efficacy period)*365.25. The efficacy period begins with the first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc and ends with the last dose (for prophylaxis or a bleed). Surgery/rehabilitation periods and PK evaluation periods are not included in the efficacy period. A bleeding episode started from the first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after the last treatment for the bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at the same location or injections less than or equal to 72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. Any injection to treat the bleeding episode taken more than 72 hours after the preceding one was considered the first injection to treat a new bleeding episode at the same location. Any bleeding at a different location was considered a separate bleeding episode, regardless of time from last injection.
Annualized Joint Bleeding Rate (Spontaneous)
Annualized bleeding rate for spontaneous joint bleed=(number of bleeding episodes meeting those criteria during the efficacy period/total number of days during the efficacy period)*365.25. The efficacy period begins with the first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc and ends with the last dose (for prophylaxis or a bleed). Surgery/rehabilitation periods and PK evaluation periods are not included in the efficacy period. A bleeding episode started from the first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after the last treatment for the bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at the same location or injections less than or equal to 72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. Any injection to treat the bleeding episode taken more than 72 hours after the preceding one was considered the first injection to treat a new bleeding episode at the same location. Any bleeding at a different location was considered a separate bleeding episode, regardless of time from last inject
Participant Assessment of Response to Injections to Treat a Bleeding Episode
Participant's assessment (provided by the caregiver) of the response to the first rFVIIIFc injection for each bleeding episode. Percentages were based on the number of first injections for which a response was provided, using the following 4-point scale: excellent=abrupt pain relief and/or improvement in signs of bleeding within approximately 8 hours after the initial injection; good=definite pain relief and/or improvement in signs of bleeding within approximately 8 hours after a single injection, but possibly requiring more than one injection after 24 to 48 hours for complete resolution; moderate=probable or slight beneficial effect within approximately 8 hours after the initial injection and requiring more than one injection; no response=no improvement, or condition worsened, within approximately 8 hours after the initial injection.
Physician's Global Assessment of the Participant's Response to His rFVIIIFc Regimen
Investigators assessed each participant's response to his rFVIIIFc regimen using a 4-point scale: excellent=bleeding episodes responded to ≤ the usual number of injections or ≤ the usual dose of rFVIIIFc or the rate of breakthrough bleeding during prophylaxis was ≤ that usually observed; effective=most bleeding episodes responded to the same number of injections and dose, but some required more injections or higher doses, or there was a minor increase in the rate of breakthrough bleeding; partially effective=bleeding episodes most often required more injections and/or higher doses than expected, or adequate breakthrough bleeding prevention during prophylaxis required more frequent injections and/or higher doses; ineffective=routine failure to control hemostasis, or hemostatic control required additional agents. Percentages are based on the total number of responses; multiple responses per participant are counted.
Annualized rFVIIIFc Consumption Per Participant
Consumption is calculated for the efficacy period. The efficacy period begins with the first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc and ends with the last dose (for prophylaxis or a bleed). Surgery/rehabilitation periods and PK evaluation periods are not included in the efficacy period. Annualized consumption = (total IU/kg of study treatment received during the efficacy period / total number of days during the efficacy period)*365.25. Consumption was calculated overall for all participants and for the last 3 months (91 days) on study, counted backwards from the end of the efficacy period, for participants with at least 24 weeks on study.
Number of Days From Last Treatment Injection to a Spontaneous Bleeding Episode
The number of days from the last prophylaxis injection to the onset of a new spontaneous bleeding episode, analyzed across all evaluable bleeding episodes per participant and per episode, based on the efficacy period. Evaluable bleeding episodes are those for which both a date and time are available for both the onset of the bleeding episode and the previous prophylactic injection. The efficacy period begins with the first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc and ends with the last dose (for prophylaxis or a bleed). Surgery/rehabilitation periods and PK evaluation periods are not included in the efficacy period. For 'Per participant' values, the number of days from the last prophylactic injection to a spontaneous bleeding episode is averaged across all evaluable spontaneous bleeding episodes per participant.
Number of Injections Required for Resolution of a Bleeding Episode
The number of injections required to resolve a bleeding episode per participant and per episode, based on the efficacy period. The efficacy period begins with the first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc and ends with the last dose (for prophylaxis or a bleed). Surgery/rehabilitation periods and PK evaluation periods are not included in the efficacy period. All injections given from the initial sign of a bleed, until the last date/time within the bleed window are counted. The resolution of a bleed is defined as no sign of bleeding following injection for the bleed. For 'Per participant' values, the number of injections required to resolve each bleed is averaged across all bleeding episodes per participant.
Total Dose Required for Resolution of a Bleeding Episode
The total dose required to resolve a bleeding episode per participant and per episode, based on the efficacy period. The efficacy period begins with the first prophylactic dose of rFVIIIFc and ends with the last dose (for prophylaxis or a bleed). Surgery/rehabilitation periods and PK evaluation periods are not included in the efficacy period. For 'Per bleeding episode' values, for each bleeding episode, the total dose is the sum of the doses (IU/kg) administered across all injections given to treat that bleeding episode. For 'Per participant' values, the total dose (IU/kg) used to resolve each bleed is averaged across all bleeding episodes per participant.
