Osteoporosis and MRI Study in Hemophilia

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Bone Mineral Density
Hemophilia B
Hemophilia A
Interventions
Other: DXA scan + MRI
Registration Number
NCT01460147
Lead Sponsor
Baxalta now part of Shire
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate bone mineral density in adult subjects with hemophilia versus a comparator population without hemophilia (non-hemophilia age- and gender-matched database) by using the following diagnostic means: dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scanning, clinical scales, quality of life (QOL) scales and biomarkers. In addition to this osteoporosis study, hemophilic arthropathy of the knee with respect to loss of knee cartilage will also be explored by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI substudy). No investigational product will be dispensed.

  • Prior documentation of being HIV positive
  • Radiosynovectomy or surgical synovectomy within the last 6 months
  • Current or past treatment with bone active drugs
  • Long-term corticosteroid use [defined as 7.5-mg prednisone daily (or equivalent) for >= 3 months]
  • If subject is family member or employee of the investigator

Additional exclusion criteria for MRI Substudy:

  • Any contraindication or relative contraindication to MRI
  • Less than 3mm knee joint space width at the medial and lateral aspect of both knees on baseline X-ray evaluation
