E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
• To assess the efficacy of Biostate in paediatric subjects with VWD. • To investigate the PK profile of Biostate in paediatric subjects with VWD. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
• To assess the safety of Biostate in paediatric subjects with VWD. |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Male and female subjects between 0 and <12 years of age. 2. Have been diagnosed with VWD Type 1, 2A, or 3. 3. Where desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) treatment is ineffective, contraindicated, or not available. 4. VWF: ristocetin cofactor [RCo] is <20% at Screening (after a minimum of 5 days since last VWF treatment) or the subject has a history of VWF:RCo <10% documented in their medical notes at enrolment. Children < 1 year of age may be included in the study without evidence of vaccination against hepatitis A. 5. Have evidence of vaccination against hepatitis A and B or presence of antibodies against hepatitis A and B due to either a previous infection or prior immunisation as documented in the medical notes at Screening. Children < 1 year of age may be included in the study without evidence of vaccination against hepatitis A. 6. The subject and/or legal guardian understand(s) the nature of the study and has/have given written informed consent to participate in the study and is/are willing to comply with the protocol. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Are actively bleeding immediately prior to initial PK period. 2. Have received treatment with DDAVP or a VWF concentrate product for their VWD in the 5 days prior to their first dose of the IMP. 3. Have received aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) within 7 days of commencing the PK period. 4. Have a known history of, or are suspected to have VWF or FVIII inhibitors. 5. Suffering an acute or chronic medical condition, other than VWD, which may in the opinion of the Investigator, affect the conduct of the study. 6. Have a known or suspected hypersensitivity or previous evidence of severe side effects to FVIII/VWF concentrates like Biostate. 7. Have participated in a clinical study or used an investigational compound in another study (eg, a new chemical entity not registered for clinical use) in the 3 months preceding the first day of IMP administration, or are planning to enter such a study during the study period. 8. Are not willing and/or not able to comply with the study requirements. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
• Subjective assessment of haemostatic efficacy of Biostate in its usage with a non surgical bleeding (NSB) event, surgical procedure, or use in a prophylaxis regimen (efficacy component of the study). • PK parameters for each VWF and FVIII will be derived from plasma concentration values after an initial single dose of Biostate on Day 1 (PK component of the study). Parameters will also be determined 6 months after the initial dose in Type 3 VWD subjects (repeat PK, recovery study). |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
•study duration 12 months, assessment at 3-monthly visits •PK samples will be collected prior to dosing with Biostate and then at 0.5, 4, 8, 24, and 48 h after the infusion. At Month 6, PK samples will be collected for Type 3 VWD subjects at pre-dose and 0.5, 4, 8, 24, and 48 h after end of infusion.
|
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
•The nature and incidence of AEs. •The development of FVIII and/or VWF inhibitors.
|
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
•study duration 12 months, assessment at 3-monthly visits •The presence of FVIII and VWD inhibitors will be assessed at Screening, Month 3, 6, 9, and 12, and the Final visit.
