Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: A potential subject who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study: - Patients with other congenital or acquired hemostatic abnormalities - Clinically relevant FVIII inhibiting antibodies (>0.5 BU) preoperatively, unless successfully treated with immunotolerance therapy - Needed treatment duration with FVIII concentrates longer than 48 hours - Contraindications for desmopressin, e.g. cardiovascular disease (see appendix IV) - Use of co-medication that has an interaction with desmopressin (see appendix IV) - Intolerance to previous desmopressin administrations
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Primary Objectives: 1) To show the efficacy of desmopressin and FVIII concentrate combination treatment is equal to the efficacy of FVIII monotherapy 2) To show a reduction in FVIII concentrate consumption with desmopressin and FVIII concentrate combination treatment compared to FVIII monotherapy ; Secondary Objective: Secondary Objectives: a) To evaluate the safety of both treatment arms, i.e. occurrence of bleeding, dosing below target and other adverse events. b) To perform an economical evaluation to quantify the costs of combination treatment compared to standard treatment. c) To compare the proportion of patients with FVIII plasma levels within set target levels after the minor intervention. d) To evaluate experienced quality of care in participating patients. e) To evaluate discrepancies between one-stage and chromogenic FVIII-measurements before and after treatment with desmopressin. f) To evaluate the occurrence of FVIII inhibitors. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Both endpoints will be evaluated at the end of study.; Primary end point(s): To assess our first main objective, efficacy of treatment is measured. Efficacy is defined as the average deviation of FVIII peak level to the predicted FVIII peak range in IU/mL in each treatment arm, without administering FVIII concentrate outside the dosing advice. The FVIII level for the primary endpoint is measured prior to the minor intervention, 10-15 minutes after the infusion of FVIII concentrate. The measurement for the primary endpoint is marked in appendix VIII. The deviation will be set to 0 for every FVIII measurement that falls into the predicted FVIII range. The predicted FVIII range will be set to the predicted peak level +/- 10%. Example: A patient has a target target trough FV | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): a) Number and nature of bleeding during the first 14 days after the minor intervention (appendix VI) a) Other adverse events during the first 14 days after the minor intervention b) Treatment costs in both treatment arms c) The proportion of patients with FVIII plasma levels within set target levels after the minor intervention d) Experienced quality of care in participating patients e) Discrepancies between one-stage and chromogenic FVIII-measurements before and after desmopressin administration f) Inhibitor development 4-6 weeks after the minor intervention ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Every endpoint will be evaluated at the end of study | — |
