Active clinical trials for "Hemophilia A"

Background. Hemophilia is characterized by the development of a progressive, degenerative, intra-articular lesion (hemophilic arthropathy). This arthropathy presents with chronic pain, limited range of motion, axial changes, and periarticular muscle atrophy. Goal. To analyze the clonic, functional and musculoskeletal differences between adult patients with hemophilic arthropathy of the knee and ankle and their healthy peers. Study design. Cases and controls study patients. 21 patients with hemophilia A and B and 21 subjects without joint damage. Variables and measuring instruments: pressure pain threshold (pressure algometer); joint status (Hemophilia Joint Health Score scale); and strength (dynamometry) and muscle activation (surface electromyography). Expected results. Observe the differences between patients with knee and ankle arthropathy and their healthy peers in muscle strength and activation.

The aim of our study is to evaluate the viscoelastic properties of lower extremity muscles in patients with hemophilia A and hemophilia B secondarily to compare them with their healthy peers.

This study will evaluate if Eloctate is superior to Emicizumab in reducing inhibitors in children with severe hemophilia when given before the first bleed (preemptive) and continued weekly to prevent bleeds (prophylaxis); and whether Eloctate immune tolerance induction (ITI) plus emicizumab is superior to Eloctate ITI alone in eradicating inhibitor formation in children and adults with severe hemophilia A.

This study aimed to establish the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Pediatric Haemophilia Activities List (short - PedHALshort) questionnaire.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relative effectiveness of two psychological interventions, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and hypnosis (Hyp), in preventing and managing pain, regulating emotional state and improving quality of life in Portuguese PWH.

The main objectives of this study are: to assess Optivate® consumption (IU/kg consumed per month for prophylactic and on-demand therapy and dose at each bleed). to assess clinical outcome when treating a bleed with Optivate®. to evaluate Optivate® in terms of clinical tolerance and safety in children under the age of 6 years. . to assess FVIII inhibitor development during the study.

A Phase 1, randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, single dose, dose-escalation study to assess the safety, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of subcutaneous administration of a long-acting recombinant factor VIIa (MOD-5014) in healthy adult males.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the immunogenicity of VWF/FVIII and of rFVIII concentrates by determining the frequency of inhibitor development in previously untreated patients (PUPs) or minimally blood component-treated (MBCTPs) in the first 50 EDs or in the first 3 years from enrollment, whichever occurs first. .

The purpose of this study is to describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BAY94-9027(the test drug). Pharmacokinetics means that we will measure how well the study drug corrects the factor VIII levels in your blood and how long it takes for the levels to fall back to your baseline level. The study is also designed to determine if the pharmacokinetics of BAY94-9027 change following repeat dosing over 8 weeks, determine if BAY94-9027 is safe, tolerable, and effective for the treatment of severe hemophilia A and define the appropriate dose of BAY94-9027. Two doses of BAY94-9027 will be studied. The first 8 subjects enrolled in the study (cohort 1) will receive a low dose (25 IU/kg) and will be treated 2 days a week for 8 weeks (total of 16 doses). The second 8 subjects (cohort 2) will receive a higher dose and will be treated 1 day a week for 8 weeks (total 8 doses). All subjects will receive a single dose of rFVIII (Bayer Kogenate FS) to determine the PK by measuring blood levels for 2 days before they start the study drug BAY94-9027. Factor VIII blood levels for BAY94-9027 will be measured for 7 days after the first and last dose to see describe the PK. Safety & tolerability assessment include vital signs, coagulation and hematological parameter, clinical chemistry, measurement of FVIII inhibitor and polyethylene glycol (PEG) antibodies will be done during the course of the study.

Children with hemophilia are exposed to intravenous (IV) procedures that cause pain/anxiety and distraction methods can be employed to improve the patient experience. Three-dimensional virtual reality (VR) environments can reduce distress related to procedures. To be utilized in a clinical setting, however, these devices must address infection control concerns and fit pediatric patients. Additionally, for use in hemophilia care, environments should encourage a subject to keep their hands/arms still to facilitate procedures. Nursing orchestration of the VR environment via an iPad dashboard has the potential to increase feasibility and acceptance by patients, families and providers of the VR experience without disrupting routine clinical care.
