Participants in this study have a genetic mutation, specifically in the coagulation (blood clotting) Factor 9 gene that causes severe or moderately severe hemophilia B. This study is researching an experimental gene insertion therapy (the adding of a gene into your DNA) called REGV131-LNP1265, also called the "study drug". Gene insertion therapy aims to teach the body how to produce clotting factor long-term, without the need for factor replacement therapy. The main aim of this study is to find a safe and well-tolerated dose of the study drug by checking the side effects that may happen from taking it. The study is looking at several other research questions including: * How much study drug is in the blood at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against parts of the study drug, which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects. Antibodies are proteins produced by the body's immune system in response to a foreign substance * Whether the body makes antibodies against the clotting factor replacement therapy * How quality of life is affected by hemophilia B and if it changes after taking study drug * How joint health is affected by hemophilia B and if it changes after taking study drug * How often visits are required for the emergency room, urgent care center, physician's office, hospital, telephone or online are required as a result of bleeding events, and if the frequency changes after taking study drug * How often factor replacement therapy is needed, both on a regular basis for prevention of bleeding, and as needed to treat bleeding events (and it if changes after taking study drug) * Whether there is a difference in 2 different methods for measuring Factor 9 activity in the blood

NCT07446010
Hemophilia A is a genetic condition that makes it hard for blood to clot properly. This happens because the body does not have enough of a protein called Factor VIII, which helps stop bleeding. The main goal of treating someone with hemophilia is to stop and prevent bleeding by giving them the missing Factor VIII. This treatment can be given when a person starts bleeding (called on-demand treatment), or it can be given regularly to prevent bleeding (called prophylactic therapy). In India, most people with hemophilia A get treatment only when they have a bleeding episode, and only a few receive regular preventive treatment. Octocog alfa (also known as BAY 81-8973) is a modern, laboratory-made version of Factor VIII. It is made without using any human or animal materials and has special features that help it work better in the body. In India, Octocog alfa is approved for use in adults and children with hemophilia A to: * Treat and control bleeding episodes when they happen * Manage bleeding during surgery * Prevent bleeding by giving regular treatment The safety and effectiveness of Octocog alfa have been shown in several global studies. This new study is required by Indian health authorities to collect information about how safe Octocog alfa is and how well it works in people with hemophilia A who have already received treatment. The study will look at how Octocog alfa is used in real-life medical practice in India, including how doctors prescribe it, how patients use it, and what treatment results they have.
NCT07425327

NCT07420348
Introduction: Prophylaxis with emicizumab has substantially improved hemorrhagic control in hemophilia A. However, the longitudinal incidence of ultrasonographically detected articular damage in initially healthy joints remains insufficiently characterized. Objective: To estimate the incidence of ultrasonographically detected articular damage in initially healthy joints among patients with hemophilia A receiving prophylaxis with emicizumab and to explore its association with relevant clinical variables. Methods: A prospective, longitudinal, observational study will be conducted in approximately 70 patients with hemophilia A receiving emicizumab, with an estimated recruitment of approximately 270 initially healthy joints. The study is purely observational and does not involve evaluation of the investigational product nor modification of the therapeutic regimen; dosing, administration intervals, and all clinical decisions regarding emicizumab will be determined exclusively at the discretion of the treating hematologist. Assessments will be performed at baseline and at 12 and 24 months. The unit of analysis will be the joint, including elbows, knees, and ankles without ultrasonographic evidence of articular damage and without a history of clinically evident hemarthrosis at study entry. The primary endpoint will be the occurrence of incident ultrasonographically detected articular damage, assessed using the Haemophilia Early Arthropathy Detection with Ultrasound (HEAD-US) protocol. Secondary outcomes will include clinical joint health assessed by the Hemophilia Joint Health Score (HJHS), version 2.1; the frequency of joint hemarthroses measured by the annualized joint bleeding rate (AJBR); and habitual physical activity levels evaluated through age-specific validated questionnaires. Statistical analyses will account for intra-patient correlation among joints. Expected Results: A low to moderate incidence of ultrasonographically detected articular damage in initially healthy joints is anticipated during follow-up, providing clinically relevant information regarding structural joint preservation in patients with hemophilia A receiving emicizumab prophylaxis.

Participants are from a cohort of patients treated with AAV-mediated gene transfer and at least 6 months after vector infusion.
NCT04645199
Background Hematological diseases are disorders of the blood and hematopoietic organs. The current hematological cohorts are mostly based on single-center or multi-center cases, or cohorts with limited sample size in China. There is a lack of comprehensive and large-scale prospective cohort studies in hematology. The purpose of this study is to analyze the incidence and risk factors of major blood diseases, the treatment methods, prognosis and medical expenses of these patients in China. Method The study will include patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, hemophilia, aplastic anemia, leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, lymphoma, bleeding disorders, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, large granular lymphocyte leukemia, essential thrombocythemia, blood infection or received bone marrow transplantation in the investigating hospitals from January 1, 2020, and collect basic information, diagnostic and treatment information, prognosis information, as well as medical expense information from medical records. In its current form, the NICHE registry incorporates historical data (collected from 2000) and is systematically collecting prospective data in two phases with broadening reach, and prospectively follow-up to collect the prognosis information.

NCT05044845
Gene therapy is a paradigm-shifting treatment for hemophilia B patients, particularly in resource-limited countries where factor availability remains low. Transparent and culturally sensitive communication around gene therapy is vital to the success of a high-quality consenting process. Current literature on knowledge, beliefs and attitudes about gene therapy in resource-limited countries is inadequate. In addition, few educational resources to explain basic gene therapy concepts exist in languages other than English. This study aims to address these gaps in knowledge and aid for the development of educational resources to assist the informed consent processes for gene therapy in resource-limited countries. Primary Objective: To assess baseline knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes about gene therapy held by hemophilia B patients globally Secondary Objectives: 1. To explore healthcare workers' (i.e., physicians, nurses, social workers, educators/academic coordinators) perspectives regarding the education needs of hemophilia B patients globally 2. To explore healthcare workers beliefs and attitudes about gene therapy 3. To identify preferences of patients with hemophilia B and their healthcare workers on how/by what method or pathway educational content should be provided.
NCT03818763
This is a Phase I study. This research study is being conducted to find new ways to treat severe hemophilia A. This study is a gene therapy study. Gene therapy is an experimental way to introduce, into a person's cells, specific genetic material. A gene can be delivered/introduced into a cell using a carrier known as a "vector." In this study, a virus (lentivirus), the "vector", is used to introduce or deliver a gene that creates and stores a protein Factor VIII (FVIII) in your platelets. These platelets are made from stem cells (mother cells for your bone marrow) that are removed from your blood by a procedure called apheresis. This research study will take some of the patient's own stem cells, from the apheresis procedure, and genetically modify them using the vector in order to make them produce FVIII in platelets that arise from the stem cells. They will then give the genetically modified stem cells back to the patient so that they can possibly create platelets that produce and store Factor VIII on their own.
NCT05036278
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have hemophilia A. Hemophilia A is a genetic bleeding disorder that is caused by the lack of a protein in the blood called "clotting factor 8" (FVIII). FVIII is naturally found in the blood where it causes the blood to clump together to help prevent and stop bleeding. People with lower levels of FVIII or with FVIII that does not work properly may bleed for a long time from minor wounds, have painful bleeding into joints, or have internal bleeding. The study treatment, Jivi (also called damoctocog alfa pegol), is already available for doctors to prescribe to people with hemophilia A to treat and prevent bleeding. It works by replacing the missing FVIII, or the FVIII that does not work properly. People with hemophilia A need frequent injections of FVIII products into the vein. So called standard half-life (SHL) products need to be given 2 to 4 times a week for the prevention of bleeding. In recent years, new products like Jivi called extended half-life (EHL) products have become available. These products last longer in the body so that they require to be given less often with injections every 3-5 days. Thus, these treatments may be easier and more comfortable to stick to in daily life. There is no general plan concerning the best amount of treatment and the frequency of injections for the prevention of bleeding, since the severity may be different and individual risk factors have to be considered. Doctors often decide on a treatment plan based on their experience. The main purpose of this study is to learn how well a new scoring approach works to select a treatment plan for the prevention of bleeding in people with hemophilia A who switch their treatment from SHL products to Jivi. Different types of information are used to calculate the risk score like bleeding history, certain biological factors, and physical activity of the participant. All participants will receive Jivi for 6 months. In the first four weeks, all participants will receive Jivi 2 times a week at a dose level of 40 IU per kilogram body weight (also known as 40 IU/kg/dose, recommended maximum dose is 6,000 IU). Then, based on their risk score, each participant will be assigned to one of three treatment plans: * participants with a high risk remain on Jivi administration 2 times a week at 40 IU/kg/dose * participants with a medium risk will switch to Jivi administration every 5 days at 50 IU/kg/dose * participants with a low risk will switch to Jivi administration every 5 days at 50 IU/kg/dose and after 4 weeks to a less frequent administration (e.g., every 7 days) at 60 IU/kg/dose To check how well the new scoring approach works for choosing the right treatment plan, researchers will look at how many participants have a favourable outcome. This means that the participant has either fewer bleeding events vs. the pre-study treatment and takes Jivi less often or as often as the previous SHL treatment but with fewer bleeding events, or that the participant has a comparable number of bleeding events but needs to take Jivi less often than the previous treatment. Each participant will be in the study for approximately 7.5 months. During this time, 4 visits to the study site and 3 phone calls are planned. During the study, the doctors and their study team will: • do physical examinations • take blood samples • ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having. In addition, participants or their guardians are required to write down the dates of Jivi treatments and bleeding events in an electronic diary and to fill in different questionnaires on their quality of life, health status, work/ school productivity, pain, and treatment satisfaction. In addition, participants are expected to keep appointments for visits and to adhere to the assigned treatment regimen. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments.
NCT07200609
Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder caused by deficiencies or low levels of clotting factors VIII (hemophilia A) and IX (hemophilia B). It is a chronic disease that negatively affects physical function, mobility, and quality of life by causing damage to joint and muscle structures due to bleeding disorders. Traditional rehabilitation methods can sometimes be boring for children and lead to a loss of motivation. Therefore, there is a need for innovative methods that will increase treatment compliance and improve children's physical activity levels. Virtual reality (VR) technology provides a realistic and interactive environment that enables children to actively participate in the rehabilitation process. Combined with gamification elements, VR offers a fun learning and practice environment that supports the development of motor skills, reduces fear of movement, and can increase motivation for repetitive exercises. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effects of virtual reality-based gamified rehabilitation on joint health, pain, posture, gait function, proprioception, and quality of life. Additionally, the contribution of this intervention to changes in activity and participation levels will be demonstrated using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) model. This study has the potential to guide future clinical practice by offering a more enjoyable and effective rehabilitation alternative for children with hemophilia. The widespread adoption of virtual reality-supported programs will be an important step in reducing physical disabilities associated with hemophilia.
