GroupInterventionDescription
On-demandrIX-FPEpisodic treatment for bleeding episodes during the first 6 months then switch to routine weekly prophylaxis for a further 6 months Subjects may participate in a surgical 'sub-study' in which rIX-FP may be administered prior to, during and after surgical intervention.
ProphylaxisrIX-FPRoutine weekly prophylaxis and episodic treatment for bleeding episodes. An individualized dosing interval may be tested in sub-group subjects during the 2nd part of the trial. Subjects may participate in a surgical 'sub-study' in which rIX-FP may be administered prior to, during and after surgical intervention.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Frequency of Spontaneous Bleeding Events Between On-demand and Prophylaxis Treatments (Annualized)Up to 26 weeks for on-demand regimen, and between 1 and 17 months for prophylaxis regimen.

Subjects in the on-demand arm received on-demand dosing with rIX-FP for up to 26 weeks (on-demand regimen), and then received weekly prophylaxis with rIX-FP for the remainder of the study (prophylaxis regimen). The effectiveness of prophylaxis in comparison to on-demand therapy was investigated by comparing the same subject's annualized spontaneous bleeding rate (AsBR) during the on-demand regimen and during the prophylaxis regimen.

Number of Subjects Developing Inhibitors Against Factor IX (FIX)Up to 27.7 months (maximum)

The number of participants developing inhibitors against factor IX (FIX) along with the 95% Clopper-Pearson confidence interval, are summarized for subjects with 50 or more exposure days (EDs) to rIX-FP, and for all participants in the study.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area Under the Curve (AUC)336 hours

AUC to the last sample with quantifiable drug concentration (AUClast) of a single dose of rIX-FP. PK data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.

Clearance of a Single Dose of rIX-FP336 hours

PK data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.

Annualized Spontaneous Bleeding Events Compared Between 7 Day Prophylactic and Extended RegimensDuring treatment, between median 240 and 386 days per subject.

Median number of spontaneous bleeds per year per subject comparing 7-, 10- and 14- day prophylactic regimens.

Investigator's Overall Clinical Assessment of Hemostatic Efficacy for Treatment of Bleeding Episodes, Based on a Four Point Ordinal Scales (Excellent, Good, Moderate, Poor/No Response)For the duration of the study; median 20.27 months

Number of bleeding episodes requiring treatment that resulted in hemostatic efficacy of excellent, good, moderate, poor/no response, according to the Investigator's clinical assessment of hemostatic efficacy, expressed as a percentage of the bleeding episodes requiring treatment.

Incremental Recovery of rIX-FP336 hours

Pharmacokinetic (PK) data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.

Half-life (t1/2) of a Single Dose of rIX-FP336 hours

PK data are presented for a single 50 IU/kg dose of rIX-FP.

Investigator's (or Surgeon's) Overall Clinical Assessment of Hemostatic Efficacy for Surgical Prophylaxis, Based on a Four Point Ordinal Scale (Excellent, Good, Moderate, Poor/No Response)Up to 14 days after surgery

Number of surgical events treated prophylactically with rIX-FP that resulted in hemostatic efficacy of excellent, good, moderate, poor/no response, according to the Investigator's (surgeon's) overall assessment of hemostatic efficacy for surgical prophylaxis.

Proportion of Bleeding Episodes Requiring One or ≤ Two Injections of rIX-FP to Achieve HemostasisFor the duration of the study; median 20.27 months.

Number of injections required to achieve hemostasis expressed as a percentage of the bleeding episodes requiring treatment.

rIX-FP Consumed Per Month While Maintaining Assigned Prophylactic Treatment Interval During Routine Prophylaxis.Median 269, 240, 386 and 316 days, respectively (see Description)

Time frame: For Prophylaxis Arm 7-, 10- and 14-day regimens, median 269, 240 and 386 days respectively. For On-demand Arm, prophylaxis regimen, median 316 days.

The Frequency of Related Adverse EventsFor the duration of the study; median 20.27 months.

The percentage of participants experiencing treatment-related adverse-events (TEAEs).

Number of Subjects Developing Antibodies Against rIX-FPFor the duration of the study; median 20.27 months.
