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 ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    To demonstrate the efficacy of Octafibrin for on-demand treatment of acute bleeding episodes (spontaneous or after trauma)
    Protection of trial subjects
    This trial was conducted in accordance to the principles of ICH- GCP, ensuring that the rights, safety and well-being of patients are protected and in consistency with the Declaration of Helsinki, national regulatory requirements and FDA Code of Federal Regulations. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were carefully defined in order to protect subjects from contraindications, interactions with other medication and risk factors associated with the investigational medicinal product. Throughout the study safety was assessed, such as of monitoring of AEs, SAEs, concomitant medication, monitoring of Thromboembolic events (TEEs) and assessments of safety lab parameters.

    Octafibrin is a human plasma-derived fibrinogen concentrate for intravenous use. The product is packed and labelled according to local regulations in vials containing 1 g of lyophilised fibrinogen concentrate powder for reconstitution with 50 mL of water for injection (WFI). It was administered as an intravenous bolus injection at a maximum speed of 5 mL/min. Continuous infusion was not allowed. Octafibrin was individually dosed to achieve a recommended target fibrinogen plasma level dependent on the type of bleeding or surgery (minor or major).

    End point title
    Efficacy Assessment for Treatment of the First Bleeding Episode (4-Point Efficacy Scale) [1]
    End point description
    Primary Endpoint was the investigators overall clinical assessment of the haemostatic efficacy of Octafibrin in treating the first documented bleeding episode of each patient ((firstBLEED/firstBLEED-PP dataset; n=8) The investigator's overall clinical assessment of haemostatic efficacy for bleeding was based on a 4-point haemostatic efficacy rating scale (Excellent, Good, Moderate, None) The final efficacy assessment of each patient was adjudicated by the Independent Data Monitoring & Endpoint Adjudication Committee (IDMEAC). If any intra- or post-operative endpoint data differed between the investigator’s assessment and the adjudicated assessment by the IDMEAC, the final endpoint assessment was that based on the adjudicated assessments based on an agreed algorithm.
    End point type
    Primary
    End point timeframe
    First Octafibrin infusion for the treatment of a bleeding episode until 24 hours (i.e., 1 day) after the last infusion or the end of the treatment observation period, whichever comes last.
    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: Analysis of the study data was descriptive and focused on overall clinical assessment of the haemostatic efficacy and safety analyses. The final efficacy assessment of each patient was adjudicated by the IDMEAC. The statistical analysis of the primary, secondary and safety endpoints were exploratory only and no confirmatory hypothesis testing was carried out.

    End point title
    Change in Maximum Clot Firmness (MCF) for the First Bleeding Episode for Each Patients and for All Bleeding Episodes
    End point description
    MCF was measured using thromboelastometry (ROTEM). ROTEM is a method for the continuous measurement of clot formation and clot firmness. It utilises a mechanical detection system which is based on the ability of the blood or plasma clot to form a mechanical coupling over a distance of 1 mm. ROTEM was used to measure MCF as a surrogate efficacy marker for haemostatic efficacy before and after the first infusion of Octafibrin for treatment of the first bleeding episode and all bleeding episodes. The change in MCF was measured from baseline to 1hour post-infusion of Octafibrin administration. The analysis was performed in patients in the full-analysis set population that had at least one bleeding episode (BE) treated with Octafibrin (firstBLEED population: n=8), and all patients that had all documented BEs treated with Octafibrin (BLEED population: n=8)

    Change in fibrinogen activity was assessed using the Clauss fibrinogen assay for the first bleeding episode and all bleeding episodes. The change in fibrinogen activity was assessed from Day 1 pre-infusion to 1 hour post-infusion of Octafibrin. The analysis was performed in patients in the full-analysis set population that had at least one bleeding episode (BE) treated with Octafibrin (firstBLEED population: n=8), and all patients that had all documented BEs treated with Octafibrin (BLEED population: n=8)

    Incremental IVR calculated as the maximum increase in plasma fibrinogen (i.e. Clauss data) between the pre-infusion and the 3-hour post-infusion measurement, (expressed as absolute concentration in plasma [mg/dL]), divided by the exact dose of Octafibrin per body weight (expressed as mg/kg dosed). Incremental (response) IVR data for the firstBLEED and BLEED populations were calculated. The analysis was performed in patients in the full-analysis set population that had at least one bleeding episode (BE) treated with Octafibrin (firstBLEED population: n=8), and all patients that had all documented BEs treated with Octafibrin (BLEED population: n=8)

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Sep 2015
    Amendment#1: • Change in PK time point from Day5 (96 hours) to Day 4 (72 hours as requested by US FDA and after reviewing the results of the FORMA 01 PK study data analysis. • Including the median response in this dose calculation formula as the median incremental in vivo recovery reported for the PK of Octafibrin in the final analysis of study FORMA-01 which was calculated as 1.77 (g/L / mg/kg)
    08 Jul 2016
    Amendment#2: was prepared in response to the information request by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 1. For the primary analysis of haemostatic efficacy of Octafibrin in the treatment of the first bleeding episode of each patient, the original 90% confidence interval (CI) was replaced with a two-sided 95% CI. 2. For the secondary analysis of haemostatic efficacy of Octafibrin in the treatment of all bleeding episodes, this amendment now clarifies that the 95% CI of success rate estimates will be a two-sided 95% CI 3. The number of patients enrolled for the PK analysis was increased from at least 6 to at least 12 4. Intraoperative efficacy as assessed by the surgeon excluded unexpected blood loss due to surgical complications. The protocol now contains the provision that, in documenting the adjudication process for the assessment of surgical prophylaxis, the IDMEAC explicitly identifies any subjects for whom they considered there to have been ‘unexpected blood loss due to surgical complications’ and state whether this unexpected blood loss altered the 4-point assessment of surgical prophylaxis. Any such cases shalll be analyzed both including (as a sensitivity analysis) and excluding unexpected blood loss. 5. To facilitate detection of thromboembolic events (TEEs), a ‘TEE questionnaire’ including symptoms relevant for the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis has been added to the study.
    30 May 2017
    Amendment #3 : 1. Addition of a statement regarding a planned interim analysis and when this will be performed. 2. Addition of a statement regarding when the clinical study report will be available for the submission to the competent authorities.
