Congenital Fibrinogen Deficiency
Conditions
Brief summary
This study will assess the efficacy of Octafibrin, a fibrinogen concentrate in in the on-demand treatment of spontaneous or traumatic bleeding episodes in paediatric patients less than 12 years of age.The planned study duration is up to 5 years. The study will be considered completed when a minimum of 6 subjects (i.e., at least 3 subjects aged between 0 and \<6 years and 3 subjects aged between 6 and \<12 years) have at least one documented bleeding episode and when in total a minimum of 2 surgical procedures have been performed. All patients will undergo a pharmacokinetic (PK) study after screening. This will have a duration of 14 days, after which a patient can be treated for a bleeding episode or planned surgical procedure when they occur.

The investigator's overall clinical assessment of haemostatic efficacy for bleeding was based on a 4-point haemostatic efficacy scale (excellent, good, moderate or none). Excellent result was defined as immediate cessation of bleeding; 'Good' was eventual complete cessation of bleeding; 'Moderate' was incomplete cessation of bleeding and 'None' was no cessation of bleeding with alternative haemostatic intervention required. The IDMEAC conducted an independent adjudication of all haemostatic efficacy results and evaluated the investigator's assessments of the efficacy in the treatment of each BE. |
