Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Intraoperative Hemostatic Efficacy
On day of surgery

Assessment by the operating surgeon on a 4 point ordinal scale (according to the definitions provided below): - Excellent: Intraoperative blood loss was less than or equal to that expected for the type of procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant (≤ 100% ) - Good: Intraoperative blood loss was up to 50% more than expected for the type of procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant (101 - 150%) - Fair: Intraoperative blood loss was more than 50% of that expected for the type of procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant (\> 150%) - None: Uncontrolled hemorrhage that was the result of inadequate therapeutic response despite proper dosing, necessitating a change of Factor IX concentrate

Actual Intraoperative Blood Loss
On day of surgery

Actual intraoperative blood loss was determined by the drainage volume, if a drain was placed, and the estimated blood loss into swabs and towels during the procedure.

Actual Intraoperative Blood Loss Compared to Average and Maximum Blood Loss Predicted Preoperatively by the Operating Surgeon
On day of surgery

Predicted average/maximum blood loss minus actual blood loss. Prior to the surgery, the surgeon predicted the estimated volume (mL) of the expected average and maximum blood loss for the planned surgical intervention in a hemostatically normal individual of the same sex, age, and stature as the study participant for the intraoperative period.

Postoperative Hemostatic Efficacy at Drain Removal
At drain removal (from 1-3 days postoperatively)

The postoperative hemostatic efficacy was to be assessed by the operating surgeon according to the following criteria (4-point ordinal scale): - Excellent: Volume in drain was less than or equal than that expected for the type of procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant (≤ 100% ) - Good: Volume in drain was up to 50% more than expected for the type of procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant (101% - 150%) - Fair: Volume in drain was more than 50% of that expected for the type of procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant (\> 150%) - None: Uncontrolled bleeding that was the result of inadequate therapeutic response despite proper dosing, necessitating a change of Factor IX concentrate

Postoperative Hemostatic Efficacy at Postoperative Day 3
At postoperative day 3 (approximately 72 hours postoperatively)

Assessment by the operating surgeon on a 4 point ordinal scale: - Excellent: Postoperative hemostasis achieved with BAX326 was as good or better than that expected for the type of surgical procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant - Good: Postoperative hemostasis achieved with BAX326 was probably as good as that expected for the type of surgical procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant - Fair: Postoperative hemostasis with BAX326 was clearly less than optimal for the type of procedure performed but was maintained without the need to change the Factor IX concentrate - None: Participant experienced uncontrolled bleeding that was the result of inadequate therapeutic response despite proper dosing, necessitating a change of Factor IX concentrate

Postoperative Hemostatic Efficacy on Day of Discharge
At discharge from hospital (from 1-3 days postoperatively for minor surgery and approximately 2 weeks postoperatively for major surgery)

Assessment by the operating surgeon on a 4 point ordinal scale: - Excellent: Postoperative hemostasis achieved with BAX326 was as good or better than that expected for the type of surgical procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant - Good: Postoperative hemostasis achieved with BAX326 was probably as good as that expected for the type of surgical procedure performed in a hemostatically normal participant - Fair: Postoperative hemostasis with BAX326 was clearly less than optimal for the type of procedure performed but was maintained without the need to change the Factor IX concentrate - None: Participant experienced uncontrolled bleeding that was the result of inadequate therapeutic response despite proper dosing, necessitating a change of Factor IX concentrate

Actual Postoperative Blood Loss
At drain removal (from 1-3 days postoperatively)

Postoperative blood loss was based on the drainage fluid and was only assessed for participants who had a drain placed during surgery.

Actual Postoperative Blood Loss Compared to Average and Maximum Blood Loss Predicated Preoperatively by the Operating Surgeon
At postoperative day 3 (approximately 72 hours postoperatively)

Predicted average/maximum blood loss minus actual blood loss for participants who had a drain placed during surgery. Prior to the surgery, the surgeon will predict the estimated volume (mL) of the expected average and maximum blood loss for the planned surgical intervention in a hemostatically normal individual of the same sex, age, and stature as the study subject for the postoperative period until drain removal.

Daily Weight-Adjusted Dose of BAX326 Per Participant
From initiation of surgery until discharge from hospital (from 1-3 days postoperatively for minor surgery and approximately 2 weeks postoperatively for major surgery)

Daily weight-adjusted doses of BAX326 per participant were recorded from the day of surgery until postoperative Days 11+. Each category in outcome measure includes number of all, major and minor surgeries, respectively, if different from the totals.

Total Weight-Adjusted Dose of BAX326 Per Participant
From initiation of surgery until discharge from hospital (from 1-3 days postoperatively for minor surgery and approximately 2 weeks postoperatively for major surgery)

Assessed for the intra- and postoperative periods.

Number of Units of Blood Product Transfused

Within 30 mins pre-infusion and post-infusion timepoints of 30 minutes, 6 hr, 24 hr, 48 hr and 72 hr

AUC0-72h (area under the plasma concentration/time curve from time 0 to 72 hours) was computed using the linear trapezoidal method. The concentration at 72 hours was interpolated from the two nearest sampling time points or extrapolated using the last quantifiable concentration and the terminal rate constant λz. λz was estimated from the slope of natural log-linear fitting to latter quantifiable concentrations, with largest adjusted R2.

Pre-Surgical Pharmacokinetics (PK): Total Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve Per Dose (Total AUC/Dose)
Within 30 mins pre-infusion and post-infusion timepoints of 30 minutes, 6 hr, 24 hr, 48 hr and 72 hr

Total AUC/Dose is also AUC0-inf (area under the plasma concentration/time curve from time 0 to infinity) and was defined as AUC0-t + Ct / λz, where t is the time of last quantifiable concentration, Ct is the last quantifiable concentration and λz is the terminal rate constant.

Pre-Surgical Pharmacokinetics (PK): Mean Residence Time (MRT)
Within 30 mins pre-infusion and post-infusion timepoints of 30 minutes, 6 hr, 24 hr, 48 hr and 72 hr

The MRT is the average time that the study product stays in the body (or plasma) and is calculated as: AUMC 0-inf / AUC 0-inf, where AUMC 0-inf was determined in a similar manner as AUC 0-inf.

Pre-Surgical Pharmacokinetics (PK): Factor IX (FIX) Clearance (CL)
Within 30 mins pre-infusion and post-infusion timepoints of 30 minutes, 6 hr, 24 hr, 48 hr and 72 hr

CL is the volume of plasma which is completely cleared of study product per unit time and is calculated as the dose divided by the total area under the curve from 0 to infinity (AUC0-inf).

Pre-Surgical Pharmacokinetics (PK): Incremental Recovery (IR) at 30 Min
Within 30 mins pre-infusion and post-infusion at 30 minutes

IR was defined as (C post-infusion - C pre-infusion) / Dose, where C post-infusion is the measured concentration achieved at 30±5 minutes for pre-surgical PK.

Pre-Surgical Pharmacokinetics (PK): Elimination Phase Half-life (T 1/2)
Within 30 mins pre-infusion and post-infusion timepoints of 30 minutes, 6 hr, 24 hr, 48 hr and 72 hr

T1/2 was determined as ln2 / λz.

Pre-Surgical Pharmacokinetics (PK): Volume of Distribution at Steady State (Vss)
Within 30 mins pre-infusion and post-infusion timepoints of 30 minutes, 6 hr, 24 hr, 48 hr and 72 hr

Vss was computed as CL·MRT.

Incremental Recovery (IR) at 15±5 Minutes Following Loading Dose Prior to Surgery
Within 60 minutes prior to surgery and 15 ± 5 minutes after loading dose/rebolus, if applicable.
