Notes [1] - The number of subjects starting the period is not consistent with the number completing the preceding period. It is expected the number of subjects starting the subsequent period will be the same as the number completing the preceding period. Justification: There were three subjects who did not proceed in BeneFIX® Pharmacokinetic Period 3. |

Percentage of Bleeding Episodes With Achievement of Haemostasis [4] | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Rating of the physician regarding achievement of haemostasis in every major bleeding episode was based on selecting one of the following options: 1.Excellent: accurate haemostasis, bleeding is controlled early; 2.Good: bleeding arrest or slight oozing, haemorrhage duration and severity, loss of blood and FIX concentrate requirements are as expected; 3.Moderate: moderate bleeding persists, greater loss of blood than expected, additional doses of FIX concentrate or other haemostatic products are needed more than expected; 4.None: uncontrolled bleeding, or even worsening, excessive blood loss, much higher doses of blood derivative products than expected are required. All subjects treated with AlphaNine® (PK1 and PK2) were analysed for this endpoint.
