E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess immunogenicity of Octanate® in PUPs by monitoring the levels of inhibitor against FVIII (Bethesda assay) every 3-4 exposure days until the 20th exposure day and every 10th exposure day or every 3 months, whichever comes first. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To assess viral safety of Octanate® in PUPs by monitoring of viral markers for HIV, HBV, HCV, HAV, Parvovirus B19 and ALAT at baseline and at 3 month intervals. To assess the efficacy of Octanate® for prevention and/or treatment of bleeding episodes and in surgical procedures. To assess the tolerability of Octanate® by monitoring the occurrence of adverse events. |

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
• Previously untreated patients with severe (FVIII:C < 2%) haemophilia A. • Patients who will be registered for regular treatment at the study site. • Patients without any previous treatment with FVIII concentrates or other blood products containing FVIII. • Patients without any inhibitor activity prior to admission (cut-off: 0.6 B.U.) • Freely given fully informed consent has been obtained from the patient or from the patient's parent/legal guardian. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
• Patients with any defined bleeding disorder other than haemophilia A (e.g. von Willebrand disease). • Patients with a FVIII:C above 2%. • Patients requiring Interferon therapy • Participation in another clinical study currently or during the past four weeks. |
|
E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary endpoint is the absence or occurence of inhibitor activity after treatment start with Octanate® determined by Bethesda assay (Nijmegen method, cut-off point: 0.6 B.U.). |
