Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Haemostatic Effect of Turoctocog Alfa (Treatment of Bleeds): 6 Months
Month 0-6

The haemostatic effect of turoctocog alfa when used for treatment of bleeding episodes in both prophylaxis and on-demand regimen was evaluated during month 0-6. The effect was assessed on a four-point scale for haemostatic response, excellent, good, moderate and none.

Incidence Rate of Factor VIII Inhibitors (Above or Equal to 0.6 BU (Bethesda Units)/mL) for the Main Phase of the Trial
From Visit 2 (21 days after screening) to Visit 5 (50-55 exposure day)

The incidence rate (percentage of participants with inhibitors) of inhibitors defined as inhibitor titres ≥0.6 BU for main phase of the trial.

The Incidence Rate of FVIII Inhibitors (Greater Than or Equal to 0.6 Bethesda Units (BU))
The adverse events were collected throughout the trial, corresponding to an average of 138 days per subject.

The incidence rate of FVIII inhibitors was calculated by including all patients with inhibitors in the nominator and including all patients with a minimum 50 exposure plus any patients with less than 50 exposures but with inhibitors in denominator.

Frequency of Development of FVIII Inhibitors (Greater Than or Equal to 0.6 Bethesda Units (BU)/mL)
After 90 months

The frequency of inhibitors was calculated as number of patients with inhibitors during the trial divided by number of patients in the trial. This endpoint was measured during the trial.

Frequently asked questions about turoctocog alfa

What is turoctocog alfa used for?

Turoctocog alfa is used for congenital bleeding disorder, specifically haemophilia A. It is an investigational therapy being developed by Novo Nordisk A/S (NVO) and is currently in Phase 3 clinical development. The drug is being studied in patients with haemophilia A, a condition characterized by a deficiency in clotting factor VIII.

What does turoctocog alfa target?

Turoctocog alfa targets factor VIII, a protein essential for blood clotting. It is a recombinant factor VIII product designed to replace the missing or deficient factor VIII in patients with haemophilia A. By providing this clotting factor, the drug aims to help control and prevent bleeding episodes in affected individuals.

Who makes turoctocog alfa?

Turoctocog alfa is developed by Novo Nordisk A/S, a pharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker NVO. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this drug for the treatment of congenital bleeding disorder, specifically haemophilia A.

What phase is turoctocog alfa in?

Turoctocog alfa is currently in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not yet been approved by regulatory authorities. The drug is being studied for the treatment of congenital bleeding disorder, with a focus on haemophilia A, and has completed nine clinical trials to date.

What clinical trials is turoctocog alfa in?

Turoctocog alfa has been studied in several clinical trials, including NCT01238367, NCT01365520, NCT01692925, and NCT02941354. These trials have investigated the drug's pharmacokinetics and safety in patients with haemophilia A. All nine trials have been completed, with a total enrollment of 617 participants across various countries.

Is turoctocog alfa the same as NovoEight?

Yes, turoctocog alfa is also known as NovoEight. The drug is marketed under the brand name NovoEight and is being developed by Novo Nordisk for the treatment of haemophilia A. Clinical trials, such as NCT02941354, have evaluated the pharmacokinetics of NovoEight (turoctocog alfa) in relation to body mass index in subjects with haemophilia A.
