Active clinical trials for "Hemophilia A"

This study will analyze survival and outcome of patients with severe haemophilia who undergo liver transplantation in Spain

The purpose of this study is to collect reference data in patients with haemophilia. The study will also collect and store blood samples for potential future exploratory research in the disease area.

Trial to assess the bilateral deficit phenomenon during dynamic plantar flexion task in patients with haemophilic arthropathy Describe the differences in terms of the physical variables (muscular strength, range of motion and proprioception) in patients with hemophilia who have conducted a home treatment with a digital tool. Bookmark the relationship between clinical history of joint bleeds and clinical manifestations in standing and walking.

The purpose of the study is to improve the understanding of key patient reported outcomes such as quality of life as well as clinical outcomes in hemophilia A, in a global real world setting.

This survey is conducted in South America. The purpose is to identify the key psychosocial issues affecting patients with haemophilia.

Background Hemophilia is a sex-linked genetic disorders. When the joint or the muscles is bleeding, it may cause haemarthrosis, synovium, cartilage tissue thickening, joint activity (Range of Motion) decreasing and other musculoskeletal and related disorder. Patients will produce pain in the action, compensatory action occurs, thus causing recurrent of bleeding, and joint damage. There is high rate of ankle joint bleeding in hemophilia. The ankle articular joint disease will affect lower limbs activities, and the functional activities will impaired. Review studies, in addition to physical therapy, Kinesio taping is a common intervention to improve other subjects' static balance, proprioception, functional ankle stability, correct poor posture. The main intervention of this study is physical therapy and Kinesio taping, expect to improve the stability and muscular strength of lower extremities, and balance, correcting gait and lower extremity functional activities of subjects with hemophilia.

Hemophilia A is a congenital bleeding disorder caused by deficiency of factor VIII (FVIII) and is treated by replacement therapy with FVIII concentrate. Approximately 30% of people with severe hemophilia A develop neutralizing antibodies, called FVIII inhibitors, which interfere with the function of FVIII concentrates. The reason that some, but not all, people with severe hemophilia A develop inhibitors is incompletely understood. Understanding individual and environmental risk factors is important to be able to prevent and possibly treat inhibitors. This study will look at individual and treatment characteristics in babies with severe hemophilia A who have not yet received treatment with FVIII (called Previously Untreated Patients, or PUPS). Subjects in the study will be asked to provide diaries of treatments, medications, and illnesses. Treatment will be directed by the subjects' physician, but all subjects will receive Advate, a third-generation recombinant FVIII product. Subjects will have blood drawn for laboratory tests, which include studies of the immune system and genetic studies of the FVIII mutation, before and 7-9 days after the first treatment with FVIII, and 5 days (+/-2 days) after the 5th, 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, and 50th days of treatment with FVIII (exposure days). The duration of the study will be first 50 treatments or 3 years, whichever comes first.

This study evaluates the immunogenicity of the biosimilar rFVIIa (AryoSeven) in subjects receiving AryoSeven in real-life clinical practice.

Severe haemophilia and subsequent arthropathy result in joint pain, disability and impaired health-related quality of life. Improvements in haemophilia care over the last decades might lead to expectation of a near-normal quality of life for adults with haemophilia. However, little is known about the impact of haemophilia and its treatment on social functioning. A study based on a national US cohort of 141 young men (18-34 y.o.) showed that, compared to the general US population, this cohort experienced social burdens such as unemployment and lower high-school graduation rates. Another study conducted in the framework of the HERO (Haemophilia Experiences, Results and Opportunities) international initiative showed that a majority of the 230 young adults aged 18-30 years (including 16 French participants) were employed at least part-time (62%) and most of them reported that haemophilia has had a negative impact on employment (76%) which was reported as moderate or very large by 47% of the participants. The replicability of these results could be limited by the specific socio-economic national context. In France, a survey was conducted in 2008 to assess quality of life and its determinants in children, adolescents and adults with moderate and severe haemophilia. Descriptive results on the socio-economic characteristics of the included adults showed that 51.3% of them had access to higher education (which was higher than the observed rate in the French general population in 2005, i.e. 32.5%), and that 52.1% were employed among whom 44.3% had an at-risk activity. In spite of these results which were presented in a descriptive report by the InVS (Institut de veille sanitaire - French Institute for Public Health Surveillance), some limitations could be discussed:

The purpose of this study is to implement a national survey to collect information regarding Portuguese people with haemophilia (PWH) on socio-demographic, clinical and psychosocial factors.
