Scientific title
Study objectivesInvestigation of the long-term immunogenic potential of human cell line recombinant Factor VIII (human-cl rhFVIII).

As of 03/01/2012, the anticipated end date was corrected from 01/01/2012 to 01/07/2011.
Ethics approval(s)Ethics Committee at the Federal Supervision Service for Public Health and Social Affairs approved on the 9th September 2009 (ref: "Case EC”-37284)
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedSevere haemophilia A
InterventionAll patients will be treated in accordance with their needs until the product is registered and launched in the country of conductance. There are no further interventions planned beside the three-monthly control of FVIII recovery and inhibitor development.
Intervention typeDrug
Pharmaceutical study type(s)
PhaseNot Applicable
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Human cell line recombinant Factor VIII (human-cl rhFVIII)
Primary outcome measureImmunogenicity: Inhibitor activity will be determined by the modified Bethesda assay (Nijmegen modification) at three months intervals until study completion. At the same time-points the anti-rhFVIII antibodies will be measured.
Secondary outcome measures1. Clinical tolerability: assessed by monitoring vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature will be assessed at pre-defined time-points)
2. Laboratory parameters:
2.1. Haematological parameters - red blood cell count, white blood cell count, haemoglobin, haematocrit, and platelet count
2.2. ALAT, ASAT, serum creatinine
3. Adverse events (AEs)
4. Prophylactic treatment: the frequency of bleeds under prophylactic treatment will be calculated. Study drug consumption data (FVIII IU/kg per month, per year) per subject and in total will be evaluated.
5. Treatment of bleeding episodes: efficacy assessment at the end of each BE
6. In-vivo recovery: calculated from the FVIII:C plasma levels measured before infusion and peak level obtained in the 30 or 60 minutes post-infusion sample and the actual potency of Human-cl rhFVIII. FVIII:C in the product and in plasma will be measured both by the chromogenic (CHR) and the one-stage (OS) assay.
Overall study start date01/11/2009
Completion date01/07/2011
