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   43857   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7284   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Compare the annualized rates of bleeding episodes (ABR) between subjects who received a prophylactic dosing regimen of BAX 855 with those who received an on-demand treatment regimen
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was conducted in accordance with the standards of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) in effect at the time of the study. Justification for enrollment of adolescent subjects was based on requirements outlined in the ICH M3 Guideline, Section 12 as well as the ICH E11 Guideline on clinical investigation of medicinal products in the pediatric population.Baxalta follows a stepwise approach and starts the clinical investigation of efficacy and safety in patients ≥12 years before starting studies in patients < 12 years.

    		 Close Top of page
    End point title
    		 Rate of success for BAX 855 treatment of bleeding episodes
    End point description
    Success in the control of bleeding was defined as a rating of excellent or good using the Efficacy Rating Scale for Treatment of Bleeding Episodes measured 24 hours after initiation of treatment for the bleeding episode. EXCELLENT: Full relief of pain and cessation of objective signs of bleeding (eg, swelling, tenderness, and decreased range of motion in the case of musculoskeletal hemorrhage) after a single infusion. No additional infusion is required for the control of bleeding. Administration of further infusions to maintain hemostasis would not affect this scoring. GOOD: Definite pain relief and/or improvement in signs of bleeding after a single infusion. Possibly requires more than 1 infusion for complete resolution. FAIR: Probable and/or slight relief of pain and slight improvement in signs of bleeding after a single infusion. Required more than 1 infusion for complete resolution. NONE: No improvement or condition worsens.

Clearance in dL/(kg*hours) was calculated as the dose in IU/kg divided by the total area under the curve starting from the begin of infusion (or the end of infusion if start time is not available). Subjects: 26 subjects for PK1 and PK2; 22 subjects for PK3.

    End point description
    Change from Baseline to Completion of Study for SF-36 Questionnaire is provided. Scores for individual SF-36 categories range from 0 to 100 with higher scores representing better health. Given that higher scores indicate better health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and that the change scores were calculated as the value at study completion minus the value at baseline, a negative change score indicates a worsening of HRQoL. Subjects for Treatment Arm A (prophylactic treatment): 97 subjects for physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, social functioning, role emotional; 96 for general health, vitality, mental health, physical component score, mental component score.

    End point description
    Change from Baseline to Completion of Study for Haemo-SYM Questionnaire. The 17-item HAEMO-SYM has two subscales: pain and bleeds. Given that higher scores indicate more severe symptoms on the Haemo-SYM and that the change scores were calculated as the value at study completion minus the value at baseline, a negative change score indicates an improvement (reduction in symptoms). Conversely, a positive change score indicates worsening symptoms.
