This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Wyeth, December 2007
Sponsored by: Wyeth
Information provided by: Wyeth
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00244114
  Purpose

Based on the finding that anaphylactic reactions to Benefix ("FIX") are associated with a specific IgE, a Basophil histamine release assay was selected to evaluate and demonstrate subject sensitization to FIX.


Condition Intervention Phase
Hemophilia B
Procedure: blood draw
Phase IV

Genetics Home Reference related topics: hemophilia L1 syndrome
MedlinePlus related topics: Allergy
Drug Information available for: Factor IX Nonacog alfa
U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Observational
Study Design: Case Control, Retrospective
Official Title: In Vitro Evaluation of Allergic Reactions in Hemophilia B Subjects Who Have Exhibited a Systemic Allergic Response After Exposure to BeneFIX (Nonacog Alfa; Recombinant Factor IX)

Further study details as provided by Wyeth:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Descriptive presentation of the results of the Basophil histamine release assay for both study and control groups [ Time Frame: within 36 months after allergic reaction ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Collect and evaluate adverse events that occur from the time the subject signs the informed consent form to 15 days following the study visit will be collected [ Time Frame: 15 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Any serious adverse events and/or adverse events of special interest occurring outside of the predefined study reporting period noted to be possibly, probably or definitely related to treatment with BeneFIX will be reported. [ Time Frame: 15 days following study blood draw ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
