Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   44334   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    • To determine the single dose pharmacokinetics of Octafibrin and Haemocomplettan® P/RiaSTAPTM in subjects with congenital fibrinogen deficiency • To determine maximum clot strength (maximum clot firmness [MCF]) as a surrogate marker for haemostatic efficacy before and after administration of Octafibrin and Haemocomplettan® P/ RiaSTAPTM in subjects with congenital fibrinogen deficiency.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This trial was conducted in accordance to the principles of GCP, ensuring that the rights, safety and well-being of patients are protected and in consistency with the the Declaration of Helsinki. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were carefully defined in order to protect subjects from contraindications, interactions with other medication and safety factors associated with the investigational medicinal product. Throughout the study safety was assessed, such as occurrence of AEs, labvalues, vital signs and physical examinations.

    Primary: Fibrinogen Activity Normalized Area Under the Curve Standardized

    End point title
    Fibrinogen Activity Normalized Area Under the Curve Standardized [1]
    End point description
    Fibrinogen activity was determined via a validated Clauss assay (fibrinogen activity) and fibrinogen-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ie, fibrinogen antigen) using paired antibodies for fibrinogen antigen. All determinations were performed on frozen plasma samples in a central laboratory. The Clauss assay was modified and validated to achieve a limit of quantification of 0.2 g/L. The pharmacokinetic analysis was assessed individually using a non-compartmental model. Plasma levels were measured at Baseline, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 96, 144, 216, and 312 hours post-treatment. The normalized area under the curve was standardized to a dose of 70 mg/kg.

    End point timeframe
    Blood samples for the PK assessments were taken over a period of 14 days at baseline, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 96, 144, 216 and 312 hours post-infusion
    Notes
    [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point.
    Justification: The pharmacokinetic analysis was assessed individually using a non-compartmental model. Plasma levels were measured at Baseline, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 96, 144, 216, and 312 hours post-treatment. The normalized area under the curve was standardized to a dose of 70 mg/kg. Because of the cross over design the statistical analyses of this endpoint is already reported as Fibrinogen Activity Normalized AUC.

    End point title
    Change in Maximum Clot Firmness 1 Hour Post-treatment From Baseline [2]
    End point description
    Thromboelastometry (ROTEM®) was used to measure maximum clot firmness. Thromboelastometry is a method for the continuous measurement of clot formation. Maximum clot firmness is a functional parameter that depends on the activation of coagulation, the platelet and fibrinogen content of the blood sample, and the polymerisation and cross-linking of the fibrin network. In order to obtain comparable results from all study centres, maximum clot firmness data were assessed from frozen citrated plasma samples in a central laboratory. As these samples did not contain platelets that would be found in the whole blood assay, only the fibrinogen content defined the maximum clot firmness.

    Justification: For each time point and treatment group, the mean, SD, median and range has been provided for the absolute MCF values and the changes from baseline (i.e. from pre-infusion). Mean changes in MCF between baseline and the 1 hour value have been described with two-sided 95% CIs based on the paired t-test. Further, the intra-individual differences between the changes from BL for each treatment will be described; corresponding 95% CI intervals based on the paired t-test was generated.
