Haemophilia A

BAY81-8973 pediatric safety and efficacy trial

Trial purpose

The primary objective was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the treatment with BAY81-8973 for prophylaxis and treatment of breakthrough bleeds in children with severe hemophilia A.

The secondary objectives were
- To assess the safety and efficacy of BAY81-8973 during surgeries.
- To assess incremental recovery of BAY81-8973.
- To assess pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters in a subset of children (Previously treated patients [PTPs] and previously untreated patients [PUPs] / minimally treated patients [MTPs] - participation in PK sampling was voluntary and required consent).

Primary Outcome

  • Annualized number of total bleeds within 48 h
    Annualized number (mean +/- standard deviation) of total bleeds that occurred within 48 hours after all prophylaxis infusions (Part A: 6 months and at least 50 exposure days [EDs]; Part B: at least 50 EDs or until inhibitor development) was summarized and reported. Total bleeds: sum of spontaneous bleeds, trauma bleeds (only treated bleeds were classified as spontaneous or trauma), untreated bleeds and 'other' bleeds ('other' bleeds were infusions with reason given as 'other').
    date_rangeTime Frame:
