Title A Phase 2/3, Multi-Center, Open Label Study of Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of PEGylated Recombinant Factor VIII (BAX 855) Administered for Prophylaxis and Treatment of Bleeding in Previously Treated Patients with Severe Hemophilia A

IRB BAX1Z13

CC 13-836

Hospital Main Campus

Phase Phase 2, Phase 3

Disease Hemophilia A

Drug BAX-855, tergenpumapucel-L

Description

Description

Primary
  1. The primary objective is to compare the annualized rates of bleeding episodes (ABR) between subjects receiving a prophylactic regimen of BAX 855 with an on-demand treatment regimen.
Secondary
  1. The key secondary objective is to estimate the rate of success of BAX 855 for treatment of bleeding episodes.
