| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of continuous infusion of WILFACTIN for the prevention of perioperative bleeding in patients with severe von Willebrand Disease undergoing elective major surgery.;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives are to evaluate the: • biological efficacy of continuous infusion of WILFACTIN for achievement of target VWF:RCo levels and maintenance of the pharmacodynamic effect documented by haemostatic FVIII:C levels. • safety of continuous infusion of WILFACTIN. ;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint will be the haematologist’s overall assessment on D7 of haemostasis during and following surgery for at least 6 days (144 hours). Haemostasis will be rated using the following 4-point scale: •. 'excellent': bleeding similar to that expected in a normal subject, •. 'good': mild excessive bleeding, •. 'moderate': moderate but controlled excessive bleeding, •. 'none': severe, uncontrolled bleeding. The physician’s rating will be based on the following parameters: • blood loss (comparison of predicted and actual volumes), • haemoglobin levels and transfusion requirements, • assessment of haemostatic efficacy on D0 by the surgeon using the same 4-point scale, • daily medical examination of the surgical site. A successful procedure is defined as a procedure for which the haemostasis assessment is rated 'excellent' or 'good'. | — |
