Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Adverse Events Possibly or Probably Related to the Investigational Product [Assessed (based on patient diary) every 3 months until study completion (when BAX326 is licensed in the respective country or the participant has accumulated approximately 100 exposure days to BAX 326, whichever is last).]

    Possibly or probably related adverse events that occurred during or after first BAX326 infusion.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Treatment of Bleeding Episodes: Number of Infusions Per Bleeding Episode Required Until Bleed Resolution [Throughout the study from screening to study completion (when BAX326 is licensed in the respective country or the participant has accumulated approximately 100 exposure days to BAX 326, whichever is last).]

    Number of Infusions of BAX326 that were required until bleed resolution.

  2. Treatment of Bleeding Episodes: Overall Hemostatic Efficacy Rating at Resolution of Bleed [Throughout the study from screening to study completion (when BAX326 is licensed in the respective country or the participant has accumulated approximately 100 exposure days to BAX 326, whichever is last).]

    Overall clinical efficacy rating of bleeding episodes was done at resolution of bleed according these rating scale: Excellent=Full relief of pain and cessation of objective signs of bleeding after a single infusion. No additional infusion is required for the control of bleeding. Administration of further infusion would not affect the scoring. Good=Definite pain relief and/or improvement in signs of bleeding after a single infusion. Possibly requires more than 1 infusion for complete resolution. Fair=Probable and/or slight relief of pain and slight improvement in signs of bleeding after a single infusion. Required more than 1 infusion for complete resolution. None=No improvement or condition worsens.

  3. Annualized Bleed Rate During Prophylaxis Treatment [For prophylactic treatment the period from first to last prophylactic infusion is considered.]

    Annualized bleed rate (ABR) was calculated as (number of bleeding episodes/observed treatment period in days)*365.25

  4. Consumption of BAX 326: Number of Infusions Per Month and Per Year [Throughout the study from screening to study completion (when BAX326 is licensed in the respective country or the participant has accumulated approximately 100 exposure days to BAX 326, whichever is last).]

    The number of infusions consumed per month and per year for the prophylactic and on-demand treatment regimens.

  5. Consumption of BAX 326: Weight Adjusted Consumption Per Month and Per Year [Throughout the study from screening to study completion (when BAX326 is licensed in the respective country or the participant has accumulated approximately 100 exposure days to BAX 326, whichever is last).]

    The weight adjusted consumption of BAX 326 per month and per year for the prophylactic and on-demand treatment regimens.

  6. Consumption of BAX326: Weight Adjusted Consumption Per Bleeding Episode [Throughout the study from screening to study completion (when BAX326 is licensed in the respective country or the participant has accumulated approximately 100 exposure days to BAX 326, whichever is last).]

    The weight adjusted consumption of BAX 326 per bleeding episode for the prophylactic and on-demand treatment regimens. Only infusions required until the resolution of bleed are considered.

  7. Development of Inhibitory and Total Binding Antibodies to Factor IX [Laboratory assessment for immunology were done at screening, at exposure day 1, at week 4 (± 1 week), at month 3 (±1 week), thereafter, every 3 months (± 1 week) and at study completion/termination.]

    Testing for inhibitory and total binding antibodies to Factor IX (FIX). Development during study means negative at screening and positive at any subsequent visit. Treatment emergent means more than 2-dilution increase as compared to the pre-study titer at screening.

  8. Development of Antibodies to Chinese Hamster Ovary Proteins (CHO Proteins) and rFurin [Laboratory assessment for immunology were done at screening, at exposure day 1, at week 4 (± 1 week), at month 3 (±1 week), thereafter, every 3 months (± 1 week) and at study completion/termination.]

    Testing for antibodies to CHO proteins and rFurin. Development during study means negative at screening and positive at any subsequent visit. Treatment emergent means more than 2-dilution increase as compared to the pre-study titer at screening.

  9. Occurrence of Severe Allergic Reactions and Thrombotic Events [Throughout the study from screening to study completion (when BAX326 is licensed in the respective country or the participant has accumulated approximately 100 exposure days to BAX 326, whichever is last).]

    The occurrence of severe allergic reactions and thrombotic events was assessed.

  10. Clinical Significant Changes in Routine Laboratory Parameters and Vital Signs [Measurements at screening and at study completion/termination are included in the analysis.]

    Hematology panel consists of complete blood count (hemoglobin, hematocrit, erythrocytes, leukocytes) with differential (ie, basophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils), mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration and platelet count. Clinical chemistry panel consists of sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, total protein, albumin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and glucose. Vital signs include body temperature, respiratory rate, pulse rate, supine systolic and diastolic blood pressure. CS=clinically significant, NCS=not clinically significant. Change from Screening to End of Study is reported.

  11. Pharmacokinetics: Incremental Recovery (IR) Over Time [IR over time was measured as Baseline and at Completion/Termination visit within 30 minutes pre-infusion and at 30 (± 5) minutes post-infusion.]

    PK infusion with investigational product was administered after a wash out period of at least 5 days. Incremental recovery is calculated as IR30min = (C30min [IU/dL] - Cpre-infusion [IU/dL]) / dose per kg body weight [IU/kg] where C30min and Cpre-infusion relate to the unadjusted concentration values.

  12. Pharmacokinetics: Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve From Time 0 to Infinity (AUC 0-∞) [PK assessments were done within 30 minutes pre-infusion and post-infusion at 30 (± 5) minutes, 9 hours (± 30 minutes), 24 (± 2) hours, 48 (± 2) hours and 72 (± 2) hours]

    After a wash out period of at least 5 days PK infusion with investigational product was administered. AUC 0-∞ is defined as AUC 0-t + Ct/lambda z, where t is the time of last quantifiable concentration, Ct is the last quantifiable concentration.

  13. Pharmacokinetics: Elimination Phase Half-life (T1/2) [PK assessments were done within 30 minutes pre-infusion and post-infusion at 30 (± 5) minutes, 9 hours (± 30 minutes), 24 (± 2) hours, 48 (± 2) hours and 72 (± 2) hours]

    PK infusion with investigational product was administered after a wash out period of at least 5 days. Elimination phase half-life is calculated as T1/2=log e (2) / lambda z where the elimination rate constant (lambda z) will be obtained by log e - linear fitting using least squares deviation to at least the last 3 quantifiable concentrations above pre-infusion level.

  14. Pharmacokinetics: Mean Residence Time (MRT) [PK assessments were done within 30 minutes pre-infusion and post-infusion at 30 (± 5) minutes, 9 hours (± 30 minutes), 24 (± 2) hours, 48 (± 2) hours and 72 (± 2) hours]

    PK infusion with investigational product was administered after a wash out period of at least 5 days. Mean residence time is calculated as total area under the moment curve divided by the total area under the curve. MRT=(AUMC0-∞[h2*IU/dL])/(AUC0-∞[h*IU/dL]) - TI/2 where AUMC0-∞ is determined in a similar manner as AUC0-∞ and TI represents infusion duration in hours.

  15. Pharmacokinetics: Systemic Clearance (CL) [PK assessments were done within 30 minutes pre-infusion and post-infusion at 30 (± 5) minutes, 9 hours (± 30 minutes), 24 (± 2) hours, 48 (± 2) hours and 72 (± 2) hours]

    PK infusion with investigational product was administered after a wash out period of at least 5 days. Systemic clearance is balculated as the dose in IU/kg divided by the total AUC. CL= Dose[IU/kg] / AUC0-∞[h*IU/dL]

  16. Pharmacokinetics: Volume of Distribution at Steady State (Vss) [PK assessments were done within 30 minutes pre-infusion and post-infusion at 30 (± 5) minutes, 9 hours (± 30 minutes), 24 (± 2) hours, 48 (± 2) hours and 72 (± 2) hours]

    PK infusion with investigational product was administered after a wash out period of at least 5 days. Apparent steady state volume of distribution is calculated as Vss = CL * MRT CL=Systemic Clearance and MRT=Mean residence time

  17. Pharmacokinetics: Incremental Recovery (IR) [PK assessments were done within 30 minutes pre-infusion and post-infusion at 30 (± 5) minutes, 9 hours (± 30 minutes), 24 (± 2) hours, 48 (± 2) hours and 72 (± 2) hours.]

    PK infusion with investigational product was administered after a wash out period of at least 5 days. Incremental recovery is calculated as IR30min = (C30min [IU/dL] - Cpre-infusion [IU/dL]) / dose per kg body weight [IU/kg] where C30min and Cpre-infusion relate to the unadjusted concentration values.

  18. Changes in Health Related Quality of Life (HR QoL) Based on Questionnaire SF-36 [Baseline at exposure day 1 and at study completion/termination.]

    The Short Form (36) Health Survey (SF-36) is a 36-item validated, generic HR QoL instrument suitable for participants of 17 years of age or older. The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores (vitality, physical functioning, bodily pain, general health, mental health, physical role functioning, emotional role functioning, social role functioning) which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability. The mental health component summary score ranged from 19.5 to 64.2 with higher scores indicating less disability. The physical health component summary scores ranged from 18.6 to 59.6 with higher scores indicating less disability.

  19. Changes in Health Related Quality of Life Using the Peds QL [Baseline at exposure day 1 and at study completion/termination.]

    The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (Peds QL) is a generic health related quality of life instrument designed specifically for a pediatric population and captures following domains: physical functioning, emotional functioning, social functioning and school functioning. The Peds-QL total score consist of all 23 items of all domains. Score range from 0-100 and higher scores indicate better quality of life (collected scores ranged from 44.6 to 98.9). The Peds-QL Physical Health Summary score consists of 8 items from the physical functioning domain. Score range from 0-100 and higher scores indicate better quality of life (collected scores ranged from 40.6 to 100.0) The Psychosocial Health Summary score consists of 15 items from the emotional, social and school functioning domains. Score range from 0 to 100 and higher scores indicate better quality of life (collected scores ranged from 46.7 to 100.0).

  20. Changes in Health Related Quality of Life (HR QoL) Based on Questionnaire Haemo-QoL and Haem-A-QoL [Baseline at exposure day 1 and at study completion/termination.]

    The Hemophilia Quality of Life Questionnaire (Haemo-QoL) and the Hemophilia Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adults (Haem-A-Qol) instruments have been developed and used in hemophilia A patients. As a hemophilia-specific instrument, this measure assesses very specific aspects of dealing with hemophilia. The areas covered by this instrument are: physical health, sports/leisure, school/work, dealing with hemophilia, and outlook for the future. Haemo-QoL is used for participants aged 8 to 16 years and total scores range from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating low quality of life (collected scores ranged from 0.0 to 44.3) Haem-A-QoL is used for participants aged 17 years and older and total scores range from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating low quality of life (collected scores ranged from 4.9 to 76.8).

  21. Changes in Health Related Quality of Life (HR QoL) Based on Questionnaire EQ-5D and Pain Score. [Baseline at exposure day 1 and at study completion/termination.]

    The EQ-5D captures overall HR QoL (phyiscal, mental and social functioning). A health utility score can be calculated from this measure, adult and proxy versions available. EQ-5D Visual Analog Scale (EQ-5D VAS):Respondents specify their level of agreement to a statement by indicating a position along a continuous line between two endpoints (scale range from 0 to 100). Score 0 corresponds to the worst health you can imagine and score 100 corresponds to the best health you can imagine (collected scores ranged from 10-100). EQ-5D Total Index is based on general population valuation surveys. Responses to 5 questions are converted to an Index value and score range from 0 to 1, with higher scores indicating better quality of life. Total Index was derived on US population (collected scores ranged from 0.4-1). General pain assessment (Pain score) is done through a visual analog scale (VAS), scores ranging from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating more pain (collected scores ranged 0-87).

Title Changes in Health Related Quality of Life (HR QoL) Based on Questionnaire SF-36
Description The Short Form (36) Health Survey (SF-36) is a 36-item validated, generic HR QoL instrument suitable for participants of 17 years of age or older. The SF-36 consists of eight scaled scores (vitality, physical functioning, bodily pain, general health, mental health, physical role functioning, emotional role functioning, social role functioning) which are the weighted sums of the questions in their section. Each scale is directly transformed into a 0-100 scale on the assumption that each question carries equal weight. The lower the score the more disability. The higher the score the less disability. The mental health component summary score ranged from 19.5 to 64.2 with higher scores indicating less disability. The physical health component summary scores ranged from 18.6 to 59.6 with higher scores indicating less disability.
Time Frame Baseline at exposure day 1 and at study completion/termination.

Title Changes in Health Related Quality of Life (HR QoL) Based on Questionnaire EQ-5D and Pain Score.
Description The EQ-5D captures overall HR QoL (phyiscal, mental and social functioning). A health utility score can be calculated from this measure, adult and proxy versions available. EQ-5D Visual Analog Scale (EQ-5D VAS):Respondents specify their level of agreement to a statement by indicating a position along a continuous line between two endpoints (scale range from 0 to 100). Score 0 corresponds to the worst health you can imagine and score 100 corresponds to the best health you can imagine (collected scores ranged from 10-100). EQ-5D Total Index is based on general population valuation surveys. Responses to 5 questions are converted to an Index value and score range from 0 to 1, with higher scores indicating better quality of life. Total Index was derived on US population (collected scores ranged from 0.4-1). General pain assessment (Pain score) is done through a visual analog scale (VAS), scores ranging from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating more pain (collected scores ranged 0-87).
Time Frame Baseline at exposure day 1 and at study completion/termination.
