Evaluation of a Simple Pharmacokinetic Tool (myPKFiT™) to Guide Personalized Factor VIII Dosing in Patients With Hemophilia

May 13, 2020 updated by: Victor Blanchette
This is an investigator-initiated, industry-funded, multi-centre, international study that will be carried out prospectively at hemophilia treatment centres across Canada, the Czech Republic and Australia with SickKids as the coordinating site. The study will use a central laboratory not directly affiliated with any of the participating sites. Enrollment target is 50 participants, both adult and pediatric with severe hemophilia A receiving Advate, who will each complete a 2-point and 6-point pharmacokinetic (PK) sampling. The main aim is to compare the results of a 2 sample PK using clinically practical time points and myPKFiT™ (a web-based, population PK Bayesian tool) to a 6 sample population PK to determine whether the results obtained are in good agreement.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
39

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Study Population

Patients with severe Hemophilia A

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Confirmed diagnosis of Hemophilia A;
  • Severe disease (FVIII <2%);
  • Receiving ADVATE for prevention of bleeding (prophylaxis) or receiving ADVATE on demand and a candidate for prophylaxis;
  • Body weight ≤120 kg; and ≥12kg;

Exclusion Criteria:

  • FVIII inhibitor positive (level of ≥0.6 Bethesda Units [BU] per mL using the Nijmegen modification of the Bethesda assay). Inhibitor status to be documented as negative prior to study enrollment according to the two most recent, consecutive inhibitor assays on record. If patients have < 50 exposure days, an assay will be completed centrally within a reasonable timeframe (approximately 8 weeks suggested) to make sure that they are negative.
  • Body weight >120 kg or <12kg;
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positivity with cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) count < 200 / microliter;
  • Significant hepatic dysfunction, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >5 times upper limit of normal
  • History of recent events that might affect FVIII half-life (e.g., infection, surgery or an invasive procedure) within 2 weeks of blood sampling.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
