Brief Title
BAX 855 PK-guided Dosing
Official Title
Phase 3, Prospective, Randomized, Multi-center Clinical Study Comparing the Safety and Efficacy of BAX 855 Following PK-guided Prophylaxis Targeting Two Different FVIII Trough Levels in Subjects With Severe Hemophilia A
Brief Summary
1. To compare the efficacy and safety of pharmacokinetic (PK)-guided treatment with BAX 855
targeting FVIII trough levels of 1-3% and approximately 10% (8-12%)
2. To further characterize pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) parameters of BAX
855
Study Phase
Phase 3

Eligibility Criteria
INCLUSION CRITERIA:
- Participants transitioning from another BAX 855 study who meet ALL of the following
criteria are eligible for this study:
1. Participant has completed the end of study visit of a BAX 855 study or is
transitioning from the ongoing Baxalta Continuation Study 261302.
2. Participant is either receiving on-demand treatment or prophylactic treatment
with BAX 855 and had an Annual Bleed Rate (ABR) of ≥ 2 documented and treated
during the past 12 months.
3. Participant is human immunodeficiency virus negative (HIV-); or HIV+ with stable
disease and CD4+ count ≥ 200 cells/mm^3, as confirmed by central laboratory.
4. Participant is willing and able to comply with the requirements of the protocol.
- Newly recruited participants (ie not transitioning from another BAX 855 study)
including BAX855 naïve participants who meet ALL of the following criteria are
eligible for this study:
1. Participant has severe hemophilia A (FVIII clotting activity < 1%) as confirmed
by central laboratory OR by historically documented FVIII clotting activity
performed by a certified clinical laboratory, optionally supported by a FVIII
gene mutation consistent with severe hemophilia A
2. Participant has been previously treated with plasma-derived FVIII concentrates or
recombinant FVIII for ≥ 150 documented exposure days (EDs)
3. Participant is either receiving on-demand treatment or prophylactic treatment and
had an annual bleeding rate of ≥ 2 documented and treated during the past 12
months.
4. Participant has a Karnofsky performance score of ≥ 60 at screening
5. Participant is HIV-; or HIV+ with stable disease and CD4+ count ≥ 200 cells/mm^3,
as confirmed by central laboratory at screening
6. Participant is hepatitis C virus negative (HCV-) by antibody (if positive,
additional PCR testing will be performed), as confirmed by central laboratory at
screening; or HCV+ with chronic stable hepatitis
7. If female of childbearing potential, participant presents with a negative urine
pregnancy test and agrees to employ adequate birth control measures for the
duration of the study
8. Participant is willing and able to comply with the requirements of the protocol.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
- Participants transitioning from another BAX 855 study who meet ANY of the following
criteria are not eligible for this study:
1. Participant has developed a confirmed inhibitory antibody to FVIII with a titer
of ≥ 0.6 BU using the Nijmegen modification of the Bethesda assay as determined
at the central laboratory during the course of the previous BAX 855 study.
2. Participant has been diagnosed with an acquired hemostatic defect other than
hemophilia A.
3. The participant's weight is < 35 kg or > 100 kg.
4. Participant's platelet count is < 100,000/mL.
5. Participant has an abnormal renal function (serum creatinine > 1.5 times the
upper limit of normal).
6. Participant has active hepatic disease with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or
aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels ≥ 5 times the upper limit of normal.
7. Participant is scheduled to receive a systemic immunomodulating drug (e.g.
corticosteroid agents at a dose equivalent to hydrocortisone greater than 10
mg/day, or α-interferon) other than anti-retroviral chemotherapy during the
study.
8. Participant has a clinically significant medical, psychiatric, or cognitive
illness, or recreational drug/alcohol use that, in the opinion of the
investigator, would affect participant's safety or compliance.
9. Participant is planning to take part in any other clinical study during the
course of the study.
10. Participant is a member of the team conducting this study or is in a dependent
relationship with one of the study team members. Dependent relationships include
close relatives (ie, children, partner/spouse, siblings, parents) as well as
employees of the investigator or site personnel conducting the study.
Newly recruited participants (ie not transitioning from another BAX 855 study) who meet ANY
of the following criteria are not eligible for this study:
1. Participant has detectable FVIII inhibitory antibodies (≥ 0.6 BU using the Nijmegen
modification of the Bethesda assay) as confirmed by central laboratory at screening.
2. Participant has a history of confirmed FVIII inhibitors with a titer ≥ 0.6 Bethesda
Units (BU) (as determined by the Nijmegen modification of the Bethesda assay or the
assay employed with the respective cut-off in the local laboratory) at any time prior
to screening.
3. Participant has been diagnosed with an inherited or acquired hemostatic defect other
than hemophilia A (eg, qualitative platelet defect or von Willebrand's disease).
