Active clinical trials for "Hemostatic Disorders"

Many women have heavy periods and this can be associated with low blood, tiredness and inability to carry out normal activities. Approximately 10-30% of these women will have an underlying bleeding disorder. There is a drug called tranexamic acid which is commonly used and is effective in reducing menstrual flow. However, up to 1/3 of women have side effects and they are more common at higher doses. In the medical literature, there are different dosing schedules and there is one commonly recommended in Canada. Women with underlying bleeding disorders may require higher doses of this medication compared to those who do not. In this study, the investigators want to find the lowest effective dose of tranexamic acid for girls and women with heavy periods who have bleeding disorders and the investigators think this will be lower then the usual recommended dose. If the investigators' results support this, it may contribute to changing how the investigators presently prescribe this medication and may provide a better option for women with heavy periods in particular those with bleeding disorders. The investigators have just started a Women with Bleeding Disorders Clinic and hope that this project will lead to better care for the patients and more research in the future.

This trial is conducted in Asia, Europe, and North and South America. The trial consists of a main trial and a sub-trial. The main trial investigates safety and efficacy of turoctocog alfa (recombinant factor VIII, rFVIII (N8)) in haemophilia A subjects, while the sub-trial investigates safety and efficacy of turoctocog alfa in prevention and treatment of bleeding episodes during surgical procedures.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the safety and pharmacokinetics (the effect of the body on the investigated drug) of long acting activated recombinant human factor VII (LA-rFVIIa) in patients with haemophilia.

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of activated recombinant human factor VII (NovoSeven®) for preventing early hematoma growth in acute Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH).

This trial is conducted in Europe, North America and Oceania. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the haemostatic efficacy of activated recombinant human factor VII in subjects undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation surgery.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of activated recombinant human factor VIIgiven in conjunction with standard therapy in patients undergoing major orthopaedic surgery following traumatic pelvic or pelvic and acetabular fractures.

This trial is conducted in North America, Europe, Asia and Oceania. The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of Recombinant Factor VIIa in patients with acute intracerebral bleeding.

This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe, Japan, and North and South America. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of activated recombinant human factor VII analogue (vatreptocog alfa (activated)) in haemophilia patients with inhibitors.

This trial is conducted in Japan. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of Activated Recombinant Factor VII (NN-007) in patients with acute intracerebral haemorrhage.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Humate-P® to prevent bleeding in patients with von Willebrand Disease who are undergoing surgery.
