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 ).

    Dosage and administration details
    Subjects undergoing major surgery initially underwent a pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluation with BAX855 (60 +/-5 IU/kg), if PK parameters were not already available from a BAX855 parent study. For subjects undergoing minor surgery an individual IR was determined. Individual dosing based on the patients PK/IR parameters was outlined in the FVIII substitution plan. For the loading dose prior surgery the FVIII target levels were to be 80-100% of normal (major surgery) and 30-60% of normal (minor surgery). Subsequent infusions were preceeded by measurement of residual FVIII levels and the dose adjusted as needed. The following FVIII trough levels were to be targeted: Postoperative day 1-3: not below 80%, day 4-7: not below 50%, day 8 to discharge: not below 30%

    End point title
    Global Hemostatic Efficacy Assessment score (GHEA) [1]
    End point description
    The GHEA is composed of three individual ratings: a. Assessment of intraoperative hemostatic efficacy of BAX 855 performed by the operating surgeon; b. Assessment of postoperative hemostatic efficacy of BAX 855 at postoperative Day 1 (approx. 24 hours post surgery) performed by the operating surgeon; c. Assessment of perioperative hemostatic efficacy of BAX855 at Day 14 or discharge, whichever is first, performed by the investigator. The scores of the individual ratings are added for the GHEA. Treatment success is a GHEA score of excellent or good. Point estimates and corresponding two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) confidence intervals at 90% confidence level are calculated. Number of subjects analysed is based on surgical enrollments and the same as number of surgeries. Main analysis was done on the FAS with 24 surgeries with at least one available hemostatic assessment, supportive analysis was done on the PPAS with 12 surgeries with all hemostatic assessments available.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    Hemostatic efficacy assessments were performed intraoperatively, postoperatively on day 1 (approximately 24 hours after surgery) and perioperatively at day 14 or discharge (whichever was first).

    Presurgical PK - Area under the plasma concentration/time curve
    End point description
    The area under the plasma concentration/time curve from time 0 to infinity (AUC 0-inf) and the area under the first movement curve from time 0 to infinity (AUMC 0-inf) was calculated as the sum of AUC and AUMC from time 0 to the time of the last quantifiable concentration plus a tail area correction calculated as Ct/λz and Ct/λz(t+1/λz), respectively, where Ct is the last quantifiable concentration, t is the time of last quantifiable concentration and λz is the terminal or disposition rate constant. The area under the plasma concentration/time curve from time 0 to 96 hours postinfusion (AUC 0-96h) was computed using the linear trapezoidal rule. For the calculation of AUC 0-96h the levels at 96 hours were linearly interpolated/extrapolated from the 2 nearest sampling time points. Number of subjects is counted based on surgical enrollment. Main analysis was done on the one-stage clotting assay results, supportive analysis was done on the chromogenic assay results.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    19 Jul 2013
    The overall study duration was extended from 24 to 41 months. The recruitment period was extended from 18 to 34 months. Pediatric PTPs transitioning from the pediatric study with BAX855 were excluded from participation in this study. Information was added to justify the inclusion of adolescents in this study with two ICH guidelines referenced. The level of detectable FVIII inhibitory antibodies which would exclude a subject from participation was changed from ≥ 0.6 BU using the Nijmegen modification of the Bethesda assay to ≥0.4 BU (due to validation of the central laboratory for this value). The wash-out period for the PK assessment was changed from 96 to 72 hours. Criteria were listed that would require a repetition of the PK assessment (e.g. bleeding episode prior to 72-hour timepoint, 2 or more PK blood sample results not evaluable). A requirement for a 72-hour wash-out period before the immunogenicity tests was added. The requirement that major surgery may only be started when the required target FVIII level (range 80-150%) has been attained was removed (as test results may not have been available within 60 minutes in most standard laboratories). In the assessment scales for ntraoperative and postoperative efficacy, the description of products for rescue therapy was deleted from the rating criterion 'none'. Viral serology tests (HBV, HCV, HIV) were added to the laboratory tests to be performed at the end-of-study/termination visit (in alignment with the pivotal study). A planned safety review was added which was to be performed upon completion of BAX855 pivotal study 261201 and was to include all major and minor surgeries performed until that time.

    Overall study duration decreased from 41 to 36 months.Recruitment period changed from 34 to 33 months.Targeted accrual changed to approx. 50 surgical/invasive procedures in approx. 40 subjects, to include at least 10 major procedures in at least 5 subjects. Age range changed from previously 12-65 years to 2-75 years. Enrollment of subjects < 12 years of age limited to subjects participating in the BAX855 pediatric study. For newly recruited subjects the age range 12-75 years applies. Inclusion crit. were split according to whether subjects were transitioning form another BAX 855 study or were newly recruited. Emergency procedures now allowed in this study, provided these were minor emergency surgeries. Only subjects transitioning from another BAX855 study were allowed to undergo minor emergency surgery, newly recruited subjects had to undergo major procedures. If IR<1.5 in the parent study or after screening, no participation in this study. FVIII activity analysis at the central lab to be performed by 1-stage clotting and chromogenic assay. PK not required for minor surgeries and major surgeries if done in previous study, IR sufficient for subsequent dosing. Rating from EOS done at day 14, wording of definitions changed slightly. Changes in virology status removed from sec.outcome measures and not assessed at EOS. Antibodies to murine IgG not assessed. Wash-out for immunogenicity was 72h (FVIII) and 96h (BAX855). Addition of single dose vials with nominal potency of 3000 IU rFVIII. Instructions for use of vials, potencies and lots given. Dosing schedule changed (instead of PK guided dosing target levels provided). Surgery to start after normalization of aPTT and dose adjustments based on FVIII activity. Short half life removed from criteria for withdrawal. Detailed info for thrombosis prophy and topical hemostatics. Subject diary added. ECG and thrombotic markers removed. Vital signs timepoints changed and removed at EOS. Blood pressure measured in supine position.
