Trial Outcomes & Findings for Once-A-Day Prophylaxis for Youth and Young Adults With Severe Hemophilia A (NCT NCT00717626)

NCT ID: NCT00717626

Last Updated: 2020-10-08

Results Overview

Tool developed to assess joint health in persons with hemophilia (PWH) through several assessments of 9 items in the 6 index joints (elbows, knees, and ankles). It has been internationally validated and has demonstrated inter-observer and test-retest reliability supporting its use as an effective physical examination assessment tool for PWH. Range: 0 - 124 ( Best score = 0, Worst score = 124)

Canadian Haemophilia Outcomes-Kids Life Assessment Tool is a validated 35-item disease specific measure of Quality of Life in boys with hemophilia ages 4 - 17 yrs. Range: 0 - 100 ( Best score = 100, Worst score = 0) The Adult Haemo-QoL Questionnaire is a validated disease specific measure of Quality of Life in adults with hemophilia ages \> 18 yrs. It is a 41-item questionnaire that considers how hemophilia affects 4 specific areas of their life. These areas include day-to-day activities, moods \& feelings, work or school life, family life \& social life, and hemophilia treatment. Range: 0 - 100 ( Best score = 0, Worst score = 100) The two measures were transformed into a Z-score to enable comparison across both HRQoL scores. A score of 0 represents no difference between the means, whereas a positive z-score would indicate an improvement in HRQoL between baseline and end of study.

Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM) is an 11-item questionnaire used to evaluate patient satisfaction when starting a new medication and/or treatment. The areas of Effectiveness, Side-Effects, Convenience, and Global Satisfaction are assessed. A modified version (approved by developers) of the questionnaire with the deletion of side effects was used fro the purpose of the study. Effectiveness, Convenience, and Global Satisfaction all include the Range: 0 - 100 ( Best score = 0, Worst score = 100)

The Previous Day Physical Activity Recall is a well-validated assessment of habitual physical activity. Activity was reported on 1 weekend day, and 2 weekdays.The intensity of the activity was recorded in Metabolic Equivalents (METs) and categorized as Light (\< 3.0 METs), Moderate (3.0 - 5.9 METs), Hard (6.0 - 8.9 METs), Very Hard (10.0 METs) Range: 0 - 10 METs per activity ( Best score = 10, Worst score = 0) MPA = Moderate Physical Activity VPA = Vigorous Physical Activity
