NCT ID: NCT00866606

Last Updated: 2011-04-05

Results Overview

Investigator Hemostatic Efficacy Assessment was based on response of bleeding episodes to BeneFIX treatment on 4-point rating scale: Excellent(1): definite pain relief or improvement in signs of bleeding starting within 8 hrs after infusion, with no additional infusion; Good(2): definite pain relief or improvement in signs of bleeding starting within 8 hrs or following infusion; Moderate(3): probable or slight improvement starting after 8 hours following infusion; No Response(4): no improvement at all between infusions or during 24 hour interval following an infusion, or condition worsens.

Population: Safety Set (SS) population included all enrolled participants who had taken at least 1 dose of drug.The 'n' is signifying those participants who received study drug and were evaluated for this measure at the timepoint for each visit respectively.

Incidence of FIX inhibitor was defined as any result determined as positive at local laboratory, and confirmed at central laboratory with Nijmegen assay result \>=0.6 Bethesda Unit (BU). Incidence was stratified by participant exposure history - Minimally Treated Patients (MTPs): those who had received at least one prior FIX infusion, and \<= 100 documented Exposure Days (EDs); while Previously Treated Patients (PTPs): those who had received \>100 documented prior EDs. When number of prior EDs for an individual was not known to be at least 100, participants were included in the MTP population.

Timeframe: Baseline up to 6 months

Population: FAS population included all participants who were treated and had at least 1 evaluable efficacy assessment after treatment.

The number of BeneFIX infusions required to treat each bleeding episode were analyzed. The average frequency of BeneFIX infusions per hemorrhage incidence to treat every hemorrhage was equal to the total number of injections throughout the study divided by total number of hemorrhagic events.

Population: FAS population included all participants who were treated and had at least 1 evaluable efficacy assessment after treatment. The 'n' is signifying those participants who received study drug and were evaluated for this measure at the timepoint for each visit respectively.

FIX recovery was assessed by evaluating FIX:C after initial exposure and following 6 months of repeated exposures to BeneFIX. A modified FIX recovery study was performed at Day 1 (Visit 2) and Month 6/Final/Early Termination visits (Visit 4) and when clinically indicated at the applicable on-demand visits. Blood samples for determination of FIX:C were collected immediately before BeneFIX infusion and at 30 minutes (±5 minutes) after the start of infusion. Post-infusion blood samples were collected via venipuncture in arm contralateral to arm used for infusion.

Thrombosis is the formation of a blood clot (thrombus) inside a blood vessel, obstructing the flow of blood through the circulatory system. When a blood vessel is injured, the body uses platelets and fibrin to form a blood clot to prevent blood loss.
