E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To assess efficacy and safety, including immunogenicity of BAX 855 administered as prophylaxis and as on-demand therapy in adolescent (12- <18 years) and adult (≥18 to 65 years) PTPs with severe hemophilia A. The primary objective is to compare the annualized rates of bleeding episodes (ABR) between subjects receiving a prophylactic dosing regimen of BAX 855 with an on-demand treatment regimen.
To determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of BAX 855 |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•To characterize the success of BAX 855 for treatment of bleeding episodes through the number of BAX 855 infusions needed for the treatment of a bleeding episode and through the length of intervals between bleeding episodes
•To compare the total weight-adjusted consumption of BAX 855 for each regimen
•To determine the immunogenicity of BAX 855
•To determine the safety of BAX 855
•To determine the PK parameters of BAX 855 following initial and repeat administration
•To assess Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) over time for subjects receiving BAX 855

•Subject has known hypersensitivity towards mouse or hamster proteins, PEG or Tween 80
•Subject has severe chronic hepatic dysfunction [eg, ≥5 times upper limit of normal alanine aminotransferase (ALT), as confirmed by central laboratory at screening, or a documented INR > 1.5]
•Subject has severe renal impairment (serum creatinine > 2.0 mg/dL), as confirmed by central laboratory at screening
•Subject has current or recent (< 30 days) use of other PEGylated drugs prior to study participation or is scheduled to use of such drugs during study participation
•Subject has participated in another clinical study involving an IP or investigational device within 30 days prior to enrollment or is scheduled to participate in another clinical study involving an IP or investigational device during the course of this study
•Subject has a medical, psychiatric, or cognitive illness or recreational drug/alcohol use that, in the opinion of the investigator, would affect subject safety or compliance
•Subject is a family member or employee of the investigator

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Prophylaxis will be considered to be successful if the upper limit of the 95% CI for the ratio between treatment means (A vs B) does not exceed 0.5 (corresponding to a 50% reduction of the mean ABR compared to the on-demand treatment). |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Approximately 50 EDs or approximately 6 months (±2 weeks) for the prophylaxis arm and after 6 months (± 2 weeks) for the on-demand arm. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Success will be defined at a rating of excellent or good using the Efficacy Rating Scale for Treatment of Bleeding Episodes. |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Approximately 50 EDs or approximately 6 months (±2 weeks) for the prophylaxis arm and after 6 months (± 2 weeks) for the on-demand arm. |
