In plain English

This study looks at women and girls aged 12 or over with haemophilia A who need treatment with a factor VIII (a blood-clotting protein) medicine called Nuwiq for surgery. It aims to record the doses used and the results of treatment. It is run by the company Octapharma.

Who can take part

  • Women or girls with haemophilia A, based on medical history. Those with factor VIII levels between 40% and 50% may also join if they have a history of significant bleeding and/or have needed (or would have benefited from) factor VIII treatment before.
  • Aged at least 12 years.
  • Due to have major surgery that needs factor VIII treatment, including planned or emergency operations and caesarean sections in pregnant women with haemophilia A.
  • Able to give written informed consent (or a parent or legal representative gives it, where the rules allow).

Who may not be able to

  • Having a blood-clotting disorder other than haemophilia A.
  • Having now or in the past an inhibitor (an antibody) against factor VIII.
  • Severe liver or kidney disease (shown by certain blood test results).
  • Known allergy to Nuwiq or any of its ingredients.
  • Being pregnant, unless a caesarean section is planned.
  • Already having had surgery in this study.
  • Currently taking part in another clinical trial of a treatment.
  • Having taken an investigational (experimental) medicine within 30 days before the screening visit.

What taking part involves

  • • Treatment with Nuwiq, a factor VIII medicine, around the time of major surgery.
  • • Recording of the doses given and the results of treatment.

About This Trial

Recombinant factor VIII for the prevention of bleeding in women/girls with haemophilia A undergoing major surgery

More detail

Female patients with mild to moderate haemophilia A will often need FVIII concentrates to provide haemostatic cover during major surgery. This prospective, open-label, non-controlled, single-arm, multinational, multicentre study aims to evaluate the overall perioperative haemostatic efficacy of Nuwiq in women/girls over 12 with haemophilia A undergoing major surgery requiring FVIII treatment

At least 12 years of age 3. Scheduled to undergo major surgery\* requiring FVIII treatment, including elective and emergency procedures and caesarean section in pregnant women with haemophilia A 4. Freely given written informed consent of the patient, or parent/legal representative where applicable, obtained in accordance with local regulations Exclusion Criteria: 1. Coagulation disorder other than haemophilia A 2. Present or past FVIII inhibitor (≥0.6 Bethesda units \[BU\]/mL) 3. Severe liver or kidney disease (alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\] and/or aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\] levels \>5 times the upper limit of normal; or creatinine \>120 μmol/L) 4. Known hypersensitivity to Nuwiq's active substance or its excipients (sucrose, sodium chloride, calcium chloride dihydrate, arginine hydrochloride, sodium citrate dihydrate, poloxamer 188) 5. Pregnancy, except in participants with a planned caesarean section 6. Already had surgery in this study 7. Current participation in another interventional clinical trial 8.
