Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetic of Octafibrin in Paediatric Subjects With Fibrinogen Deficiency
Prospective, Open-label, Uncontrolled, Phase III Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetic of Octafibrin for On-demand Treatment of Acute Bleeding and to Prevent Bleeding During and After Surgery in Paediatric Subjects With Congenital Fibrinogen Deficiency
This study will assess the efficacy of Octafibrin, a fibrinogen concentrate in in the on-demand treatment of spontaneous or traumatic bleeding episodes in paediatric patients less than 12 years of age.The planned study duration is up to 5 years. The study will be considered completed when a minimum of 6 subjects (i.e., at least 3 subjects aged between 0 and <6 years and 3 subjects aged between 6 and <12 years) have at least one documented bleeding episode and when in total a minimum of 2 surgical procedures have been performed.
All patients will undergo a pharmacokinetic (PK) study after screening. This will have a duration of 14 days, after which a patient can be treated for a bleeding episode or planned surgical procedure when they occur.

Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Overall Clinical Assessment of the Haemostatic Efficacy of Octafibrin in the On-demand Treatment of the First Documented Bleeding Episode of Each Patient Based on a 4-point Haemostatic Efficacy Scale
Time Frame: 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
|
The overall clinical assessment of the haemostatic efficacy of Octafibrin in treating the first documented bleeding episode (BE) of each patient. The first bleeding episode covered the time from the first Octafibrin infusion until 24 hours (i.e. 1 day) after the last infusion or the end of the treatment observation period, which ever came last. The investigator's overall clinical assessment of haemostatic efficacy for bleeding was based on a 4-point haemostatic efficacy scale (excellent, good, moderate or none). Excellent result was defined as immediate cessation of bleeding; 'Good' was eventual complete cessation of bleeding; 'Moderate' was incomplete cessation of bleeding and 'None' was no cessation of bleeding with alternative haemostatic intervention required. The IDMEAC conducted an independent adjudication of all haemostatic efficacy results and evaluated the investigator's assessments of the efficacy in the treatment of each BE. |

The first bleeding episode covered the time from the first Octafibrin infusion until 24 hours (i.e. 1 day) after the last infusion or the end of the treatment observation period, which ever came last. The investigator's overall clinical assessment of haemostatic efficacy for bleeding was based on a 2-point haemostatic efficacy scale (success and failure). Efficacy rating of excellent or good on the four-point scale (above) indicated success and efficacy rating of moderate or none indicated failure. The IDMEAC conducted an independent adjudication of all haemostatic efficacy results and evaluated the investigator's assessments of the efficacy in the treatment of each BE. |
