Active clinical trials for "Hemophilia A"

In the present study we are examining the clot formation and clot stability in patients with severe haemophilia A after they receive recombinat factor VIII and after addition of tranexamic acid. Our hypothesis is that addition of tranexamic increases the clot stability. The perpective of the study is to document whether it is relevant to use traneksamic acid in surgery in patients with severe haemophilia A.

The purpose of this study is to determine the relative bioavailability of ReFacto AF as compared to ReFacto, when each is administered as 2-minute bolus infusions.

The purpose of this study, PerSept 3, is to evaluate LR769 for the prevention of excessive bleeding and achievement of hemostasis in congenital hemophilia A or B patients who have inhibitors to Factor VIII or Factor IX , are aged 6 months to 75 years, inclusive; and who are undergoing elective surgical or other invasive procedures. Administration of LR769 will be performed just prior to surgery/procedure and will be repeated during and after the surgery/procedure to achieve and maintain adequate hemostasis as determined by the investigator's judgment.

The objective of this clinical study is to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of 3000 IU Advate using one 3000 IU potency vial dissolved in 5 mL diluent with that of 3000 IU Advate using two vials of 1500 IU potency dissolved in 5 mL diluent each (administered in 10 mL diluent in total) in previously treated patients with severe hemophilia A (factor VIII level < 1%).

Assessment of the outcomes of prophylaxis with Emicizumab in children with severe hemophilia A in Ivory Coast

This study evaluates the clinical impact of a progressive resistance training program in adults patients with haemophilia

The primary purpose of this randomized, two-arm parallel clinical study in 66 previously treated patients with severe or moderately severe hemophilia A is to compare the rate of bleeding episodes for standard prophylaxis (20-40 IU/kg every 48 ± 6 hours; actual dose determined by the investigator) with that of alternate prophylaxis (20-80 IU/kg every 72 + 6 hours; actual dose determined by Baxter utilizing an algorithm and the patient's pharmacokinetic data). The rates of bleeding episodes for the on-demand regimen and the prophylaxis regimens will also be compared for the cross-over portion of the study. Enrolled patients will be treated originally on demand for a period of 6 months and then they will be randomized into one of the prophylaxis arms. Prophylactic treatment will last for a period of 12 months +/- 2 weeks.

Study of FLT180a gene therapy in adults with Hemophilia B. Up to 9 patients will be enrolled to receive a single dose of FLT180a and be followed for 52 weeks. Results will confirm the dose for a future Phase 3 study.

Most transient inhibitor formation, if any, will develop within the first 4 weeks. The study is to further monitor whether participants with severe Hemophilia A will develop inhibitors or antibodies at the later stage when switched from their current recombinant therapy produced from Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cell line to Kogenate-FS raised in a Baby Hamster Kidney cell line.

Patients with severe haemophilia A lack clotting factor FVIII and suffer from spontaneous and traumatic bleeds. In the absence of treatment, frequent bleeds in joints lead to severe joint destruction. In 1960s, prophylactic therapy was developed involving the infusion of clotting factor on a regular schedule in order to keep clotting levels sufficiently high to prevent spontaneous bleeding episodes. Prophylaxis is started at an early age before the age of 2 years or after the first joint bleed. The Malmö experience indicates that treatment is most effective when administered in large doses at least 3 times weekly. However, such an intensive treatment in young boys may be very difficult to carry out for home treatment. Currently, there is no international recommendation on prophylactic therapy regimens. Because of the high cost and limited availability of factor concentrates, dosing is an important issue in prophylaxis therapy. It was recently shown that 24 hours after FVIII concentrate administration, in patients presenting similar FVIIII levels, thrombin generation capacity may be significantly different. In addition, independently of the FVIII level, a correlation was found between severe clinical bleeding phenotype and thrombin generating capacity. The aim of the present clinical study is to assess the thrombin generation test as the main surrogate marker to evaluate the coagulating capacity of haemophiliacs on prophylaxis regimen. Optimizing prophylactic therapy to patient's phenotype with no loss of clinical effectiveness can significantly improve patients' quality of life, protect haemophilic children against arthropathy and possibly limit the cost of the prophylaxis therapy.
