Scientific title | |
Study objectives | After implementation of a novel technology, Octaplas® LG has the same clinical safety and efficacy profile. |
Ethics approval(s) | As the procedures during this observational study do not interfere with the patient's usual treatment and monitoring of treatment, this study is not regarded as a clinical study as defined by EU Directive 2001/20/EC. Therefore approval by an Independent Ethical Committee and an Institutional Review Board is not required. |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Plasma transfusion in normal clinical practice |
Intervention | Before the first treatment with Octaplas® or Octaplas® LG, the physician will record the available baseline characteristics such as gender, date of birth, weight, blood group, diagnosis, and indication for use of plasma. Details of any plasma-derived blood or blood products given 24 hours before, during or within 48 hours after the treatment with Octaplas® or Octaplas® LG will also be documented. Details of all Octaplas® or Octaplas® LG infusions will be recorded (date, times of start and end, batch number(s), number of bags, and transfusion volume). Whether the use of Octaplas® or Octaplas® LG is considered by the physician to be successful (Yes/No question) will be recorded, and the reason for the positive or negative assessment will be documented, together with any additional information that may be relevant. If any laboratory tests are done to assess the therapeutic effect of Octaplas® or Octaplas® LG, including but not limited to the international normalised ratio (INR), these will also be recorded. No investigations must be initiated for the purpose of this non-interventional trial. Details of any adverse drug reactions will also be recorded. |

Phase | Not Specified |
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Octaplas®, Octaplas® LG |
Primary outcome measure | To observe the usage of the current product Octaplas® and the product with an additional chromatography step Octaplas® LG under normal clinical conditions to ascertain if there are any differences in patients outcomes with respect to effectiveness and tolerability. The effectiveness of Octaplas® and Octaplas® LG will be an objective assessment by the physician based on clinical or laboratory parameters relevant for the indication of whether the use of the product was successful or not. The tolerability will be evaluated on the basis of the number, nature, type and severity of adverse drug reactions (ADR). At the end of the study methods of descriptive statistics will be used to compare the effectiveness and tolerability of Octaplas® and Octaplas® LG. |
Secondary outcome measures | No secondary outcome measures. |
