Outcome results
Immunogenicity of Human-cl rhFVIII: Incidence of Inhibitors
The number of patients developing FVIII inhibitors was observed during the observation period by assessing inhibitor development using the modified Bethesda assay (Nijmegen modification). The definitions for thresholds were ≥0.6 to \<5 BU/mL for a low titre inhibitor and ≥5 BU/mL for a high-titre inhibitor.
Time frame: maximum 5 years (100 exposure days)
Population: The analysis was performed for the SAF/ITT population which includes all patients who had data collected post-treatment with Human-cl rhFVIII (n=108). Of the 108 patients, 105 patients had at least one inhibitor test after exposure day (ED) 1.
| Arm | Measure | Group | Value (COUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS) |
|---|---|---|---|
| SAF/ITT Population | Immunogenicity of Human-cl rhFVIII: Incidence of Inhibitors | High titre inhibitor (>5 BU/mL) | 17 Participants |
| SAF/ITT Population | Immunogenicity of Human-cl rhFVIII: Incidence of Inhibitors | Low titre inhibitor (<5 BU/mL) | 11 Participants |
| SAF/ITT Population | Immunogenicity of Human-cl rhFVIII: Incidence of Inhibitors | Any inhibitor (>0.6 BU/mL) | 28 Participants |
Efficacy of Human-cl rhFVIII for Surgical Prophylaxis
An overall efficacy assessment to assess the efficacy of human-cl rhFVIII in surgical prophylaxis of minor and major surgeries. The efficacy assessment was analyzed using a four-point scale (excellent, good, moderate, none).
Time frame: Maximum 5 years (100 exposure days)
Population: The analysis population includes 24 patients that received Human-cl rhFVIII for surgical prophylaxis during a total of 26 surgeries (SURG population). Of these, 13 patients had minor surgeries and 11 patients had major surgeries. Of the total 26 surgeries, 21 had an overall efficacy assessment (an assessment was not performed for 5 surgeries).

The frequency of AEs, as monitored throughout the whole study by the number of patients with at least one adverse event occurrence.
Time frame: 5 years
