E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
Replacement of multiple coagulation factors in pediatric patients with acquired deficiencies due to liver disease and/or in pediatric patients requiring cardiac surgery or liver transplantation |
|
E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Pediatric patients who require replacement of plasma components that are involved in blood clotting. |

MedDRA Classification |
E.1.3 | Condition being studied is a rare disease | No |
E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Octaplas in the pediatric population by monitoring serious adverse events (SAEs), adverse drug reactions (ADRs), thrombotic events (TEs), thromboembolic events (TEEs) and hyperfibrinolytic events (HFEs), including laboratory parameters for metabolic derangements, renal function, and hematologic implications.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
The secondary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of Octaplas in the pediatric population by measuring hemostatic parameter improvements reflecting changes in hemostasis. |
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
•Patient requiring liver or cardiac surgery and/or patient with liver dysfunction associated with coagulopathy in whom replacement of multiple coagulation factors was required. •Male or female patient ≤ 16 years of age.
|
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
•Patient received FFP, FP24 or any other plasma product other than Octaplas within the 72 hours (cryoprecipitate and albumin were not exclusionary) prior to first Octaplas infusion •Patient was receiving plasma exchange, therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) or plasmapheresis •Cardiac surgery patients who developed the need for plasma replacement > 72 hours after the end of surgery and who did not have coagulopathy due to hepatic dysfunction
|
|
E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
•Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs), adverse drug reactions (ADRs e.g., allergic reactions), thrombotic events (TEs), thromboembolic events (TEEs) and hyperfibrinolytic events (HFEs), beginning after the start of the first infusion episode until the final examination (end of safety follow-up period). •Clinically significant changes in laboratory parameters to assess for metabolic derangements, renal function, and hematologic implications as measured by the following: Chem 7 (metabolic panel), complete blood count (CBC) and ionized calcium.
|
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Beginning after the start of the first infusion episode until the final examination (end of safety follow-up period) |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
•Clinically significant changes in hemostatic parameters as measured by the following: international normalized ratio (INR), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), thromboelastography (TEG) or thromboelastometry (ROTEM). •Volume (dose in mL/kg) of Octaplas used per infusion episode for each patient. •Medically significant changes in vital signs. •Investigator’s assessment of overall safety observed for each patient |
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Beginning after the start of the first infusion episode until the final examination (end of safety follow-up period) |
