Trial Outcomes & Findings for Intranasal Bevacizumab for HHT-Related Epistaxis (NCT NCT02389959)

NCT ID: NCT02389959

Last Updated: 2021-09-01

Results Overview

ESS is a standardized and reproducible outcome measure for the control of epistaxis. It is composed of six factors that are independent predictors of self-described epistaxis severity. The range is 0 to 13. The higher the score worse is epistaxis severity.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and month 1, month 2, month 4, month 6

Population: Participants with available data were included in the analysis.

PCS of the SF-12 is a self-reported measure of mental health-related quality of life. PCS is calculated using the scores of twelve questions and range from 0 to 100, where a zero score indicates the lowest level of health measured by the scales and 100 indicates the highest level of health.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Month 2, Month 6

Population: Participants with available data are included in the analysis.

Evaluate the effect of bevacizumab injection on direct and indirect costs in USD associated with care and management of epistaxis as well as productivity lost after treatment. The cost of caring in USD for nasal bleeding was evaluated with two surveys, the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire, and the HHT Costing Data Sheet.
