  Purpose

The purpose of this Phase 3 study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of rVWF:rFVIII and rVWF, and to assess the safety and efficacy of rVWF:rFVIII and rVWF in the treatment of bleeding events in subjects with severe hereditary von Willebrand disease (VWD).


Condition Intervention Phase
Von Willebrand Disease
Biological: Recombinant von Willebrand factor (rVWF) with or without rFVIII (Advate)
Phase 3

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Allocation: Non-Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Number of subjects with treatment success for treated bleeding episodes [ Time Frame: 12 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Treatment success will be defined as a mean efficacy rating score of < 2.5 for a subject´s bleeding episodes treated with the investigational product while in a treatment period. Scores used to assess the extent of control of the bleeding episodes: Excellent = 1, Good = 2, Moderate = 3, None = 4.


Estimated Enrollment: 36
Study Start Date: September 2011
Estimated Study Completion Date: March 2014
Estimated Primary Completion Date: March 2014 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: PK 80 Arm (minimum of 22 subjects with severe VWD)
PK assessment (80 IU/kg rVWF) + 12-month treatment period
Biological: Recombinant von Willebrand factor (rVWF) with or without rFVIII (Advate)
Intravenous administration
Experimental: PK 50 Arm (14 subjects with type 3 VWD)
Two single-blinded PK assessments (50 IU/kg rVWF + rFVIII/placebo) + 12-month treatment period

Intravenous administration
Experimental: Treatment Only (up to 7 subjects independent of VWD subtype)
Treatment of bleeding episodes for a total of 12 months
Biological: Recombinant von Willebrand factor (rVWF) with or without rFVIII (Advate)
Intravenous administration

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years to 65 Years
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Selected Inclusion Criteria:

  • The subject has been diagnosed with type 3 von Willebrand disease (VWD:Ag <= 3 IU/dl) or severe non-type 3 VWD (VWF:RCo < 20 IU/dL) or type 2N VWD (FVIII:C <10% and historically documented genetics)
  • The subject, who participates for the treatment of bleeding episodes, has had a minimum of 6 documented bleeds (medical history) requiring VWF coagulation factor replacement therapy during the previous 3 years prior to enrollment
  • The subject is at least 18 and not older than 65 years of age at enrollment

Selected Exclusion Criteria:

  • The subject has been diagnosed with pseudo VWD or another hereditary or acquired coagulation disorder other than VWD (e.g., qualitative and quantitative platelet disorders or elevated PT/international normalized ratio [INR] > 1.4)
  • The subject has a documented history of a VWF:RCo half-life of < 6 hours
  • The subject has a history or presence of a VWF inhibitor at screening
  • The subject has a history or presence of a factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor with a titer >= 0.4 BU (by Nijmegen assay) or >= 0.6 BU (by Bethesda assay)
