E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess the immunogenicity of VWF/FVIII and of rFVIII concentrates by determining the frequency of inhibitor development in PUPs and MBCTs in the first 50 EDs or in the first 3 years from enrolment, whichever comes first |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
To evaluate the anamnestic response of inhibitor patients To evaluate the frequency of transient inhibitors To evaluate the modality of occurrence of inhibitors (number of EDs, titre at onset, etc) To evaluate clinical factors potentially associated to inhibitor development (age at first treatment, severity of bleeding episodes, surgery, intensity of treatment, modality of treatment, time of treatment in relation to vaccinations, concurrent diseases (in particular viral infections), complications of venous access and/or medications, type of delivery, breast feeding, type of milk formula) To evaluate laboratory factors potentially associated to inhibitor development (severity of FVIII defect, FVIII gene defect, FVIII Ag, HLA phenotype, IL-10.G, TNF alpha, CTLA-4 polymorphisms), analyses of FVIII mRNA expression levels, epitope mapping, FII and FV gain-of-function thrombophilic mutation To evaluate the incidence of all other adverse events related and not related to the |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Plasma FVIII level &#8805;1%, as assayed at the central laboratory o Those patients originally diagnosed locally as severe but subsequently found to have FVIII levels ranging from 1% to 2% on testing at the central laboratory will be separately recorded in the screening list. Previous history of FVIII inhibitor Other congenital or acquired bleeding defects Concomitant congenital or acquired immunodeficiency Concomitant treatment with systemic immunosuppressive drugs Concomitant treatment with any investigational drug |
