Arm Type

Experimental

Experimental

Arm Label

Prophylaxis

On-demand

Arm Description

Routine weekly prophylaxis and episodic treatment for bleeding episodes. An individualized dosing interval may be tested in sub-group subjects during the 2nd part of the trial. Subjects may participate in a surgical 'sub-study' in which rIX-FP may be administered prior to, during and after surgical intervention.

Episodic treatment for bleeding episodes during the first 6 months then switch to routine weekly prophylaxis for a further 6 months Subjects may participate in a surgical 'sub-study' in which rIX-FP may be administered prior to, during and after surgical intervention.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in Frequency of Spontaneous Bleeding Events Between On-demand and Prophylaxis Treatments (Annualized)
Subjects in the on-demand arm received on-demand dosing with rIX-FP for up to 26 weeks (on-demand regimen), and then received weekly prophylaxis with rIX-FP for the remainder of the study (prophylaxis regimen). The effectiveness of prophylaxis in comparison to on-demand therapy was investigated by comparing the same subject's annualized spontaneous bleeding rate (AsBR) during the on-demand regimen and during the prophylaxis regimen.
Number of Subjects Developing Inhibitors Against Factor IX (FIX)
The number of participants developing inhibitors against factor IX (FIX) along with the 95% Clopper-Pearson confidence interval, are summarized for subjects with 50 or more exposure days (EDs) to rIX-FP, and for all participants in the study.

Secondary Outcome Measures

The Frequency of Related Adverse Events
The percentage of participants experiencing treatment-related adverse-events (TEAEs).
Number of Subjects Developing Antibodies Against rIX-FP
Proportion of Bleeding Episodes Requiring One or ≤ Two Injections of rIX-FP to Achieve Hemostasis
Number of injections required to achieve hemostasis expressed as a percentage of the bleeding episodes requiring treatment.
Investigator's Overall Clinical Assessment of Hemostatic Efficacy for Treatment of Bleeding Episodes, Based on a Four Point Ordinal Scales (Excellent, Good, Moderate, Poor/No Response)
Number of bleeding episodes requiring treatment that resulted in hemostatic efficacy of excellent, good, moderate, poor/no response, according to the Investigator's clinical assessment of hemostatic efficacy, expressed as a percentage of the bleeding episodes requiring treatment.
rIX-FP Consumed Per Month While Maintaining Assigned Prophylactic Treatment Interval During Routine Prophylaxis.
Time frame: For Prophylaxis Arm 7-, 10- and 14-day regimens, median 269, 240 and 386 days respectively. For On-demand Arm, prophylaxis regimen, median 316 days.
Incremental Recovery of rIX-FP
Pharmacokinetic (PK) data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.
Half-life (t1/2) of a Single Dose of rIX-FP
PK data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.
Area Under the Curve (AUC)
AUC to the last sample with quantifiable drug concentration (AUClast) of a single dose of rIX-FP. PK data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.
Clearance of a Single Dose of rIX-FP
PK data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.
Investigator's (or Surgeon's) Overall Clinical Assessment of Hemostatic Efficacy for Surgical Prophylaxis, Based on a Four Point Ordinal Scale (Excellent, Good, Moderate, Poor/No Response)
Number of surgical events treated prophylactically with rIX-FP that resulted in hemostatic efficacy of excellent, good, moderate, poor/no response, according to the Investigator's (surgeon's) overall assessment of hemostatic efficacy for surgical prophylaxis.
Annualized Spontaneous Bleeding Events Compared Between 7 Day Prophylactic and Extended Regimens
Median number of spontaneous bleeds per year per subject comparing 7-, 10- and 14- day prophylactic regimens.
