Participant Flow

Enrollment was conduced at 16 clinical sites from the following countries: Japan, Taiwan, Poland, Romania, Russian Federation, Serbia, Spain, Ukraine and the United States.

40 participants provided informed consent and were screened for study participation, of which there was 1 screen failure. 39 participants (in pre-assignment period) were randomized where 1 participant withdrew after randomization but prior to treatment, therefore 38 participants were treated with recombinant activated factor VII BI (rFVIIa).

Interval 73.92 to 83.81

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: within 24 hours of infusion

Population: Full Analysis Dataset

Participants rated the treatment of each bleeding episode. If treatment occurred under direct supervision of treating physician, the physician rated the response. Ratings based on a 4 point scale; EXCELLENT - full relief of pain and cessation of objective signs of bleeding (swelling, tenderness, decrease in range of motion \[for muscle bleeds\]) within 9 hours of treatment initiation. No additional infusion required to control bleeding, other than prescribed dosing regimen. GOOD - Substantial relief of pain and/or cessation of objective signs of bleeding within 9 hours of treatment initiation. No additional infusion required to control bleeding, other than prescribed dosing regimen. MODERATE - slight relief of pain and slight improvement of signs of bleeding within 9 hours of treatment initiation. Requires additional infusion beyond treatment regimen. NONE - No improvement or condition worsens. SUCCESSFUL = EXCELLENT or GOOD.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months (throughout study period)

Population: Safety Analysis Dataset

Safety was determined by the number of AEs (both serious AEs \[SAEs\] and non-serious AEs \[nsAE\]). Tolerability was determined by the number of AEs related to rFVIIa BI (both SAEs and nsAEs) as determined by causality assessment of the AEs by the investigator. An AE was deemed Related if the investigator judged the AE to be "possibly related" or "probably related" to rFVIIa BI. The percentage of participants with AEs were presented by seriousness (SAE, nsAE), severity (Mild, Moderate or Severe) and causality (Related or Not Related to rFVIIa BI).
