PedNet Hemophilia Registry European Paediatric Network for Hemophilia Management, an infrastructure for ongoing clinical research among children with hemophilia. Aims To exchange experiences on paediatric care of hemophilia To facilitate basic and clinical research endeavours specific to hemophilia treatment and outcome.

6. PedNet/RODIN Patients PedNet: patients with severe (<1%), moderate (1-5%) and mild (5-25%) hemophilia A and B
RODIN: patients with severe HA (FVIII<1%)
Born after January 1st, 2000
Treated in one of the participating European hemophilia treatment centers
Well-documented patient history and treatment data from diagnosis onwards
7. PedNet/RODIN Design
At every out-patient clinic visit, specific assessment forms
First 75 exposure days logbook (clotting factor infusions, medications, vaccinations, infections)
Registration of patient data (FVIII genotype, inhibitor test, FVIII recovery), no additional tests
Central databases: www.Pednet.nl www.Rodinstudy.eu
8. Primary outcome
Clinically relevant inhibitor development,
defined as at least 2 positive titers combined with a decreased in vivo FVIII recovery (<66% of the expected value).
Secondary outcome
High-titer inhibitor development,
defined as the occurrence of a clinically relevant inhibitor with a peak titer >5 BU/ml
9. Enrolments - September 2009 PedNet
Total registry: 662 patients with HA/HB
Severe HA/HB: 398 (61%)
Mild/Moderate: 254 (39%)
RODIN
Total: 79 patients with severe HA

12. Inhibitor Development in PUPs or Minimally Blood Component-Treated Patients (MBCTPs) when Exposed to VWF/FVIII Concentrates and to rFVIII Concentrates:
An Independent, International, Multicentre, Prospective, Controlled, Randomised, Open Label, Clinical Trial (Phase IV)
13. Primary Objective To assess the immunogenicity of VWF/FVIII and of rFVIII concentrates by determining the frequency of inhibitor development in PUPs and MBCTs in the first 50 EDs or in the first 3 years from enrolment, whichever comes first.
14. Secondary Objectives To evaluate clinical factors associated with inhibitor development:
Age at 1° exposure, Tx modality (dose and regimen)
Vaccinations, infections, CVC-related complications
Type of delivery, breast-feeding…
To evaluate laboratory factors associated with inhibitor development:
FVIII gene defect
FVIII:Ag
VWF Ag & RCof
15. Main Enrolment Criteria Males with severe hemophilia A (FVIII:C<1%), as confirmed by the central laboratory
Any ethnicity
Age <6 years
Previously untreated (0 EDs to any FVIII concentrate or blood products), or
Minimally exposed (<5 EDs) to blood components (whole blood, FFP, PRBC, platelets or cryoprecipitate)
Negative inhibitor measurement at both local and central laboratory at screening
16. Study Treatment Recombinant arm: Products belonging to the class of rFVIII concentrates, not containing VWF (Recombinate and Advate, Baxter; Kogenate, Bayer; Refacto AF, Wyeth)
FVIII/VWF arm: Products belonging to the class of plasma-derived FVIII concentrates containing VWF (Alphanate and Fanhdi, Grifols; Emoclot, Kedrion; Factane, LFB)
17. Sample Size: 300 patients
18. Centralized Inhibitor Assay Modification of Nijmegen-Bethesda method
In house-made buffered normal pooled plasma
FVIII-deficient plasma with VWF present
Positives repeated at multiple dilutions
19. Inhibitor Monitoring Locally and at the central lab:
every 3-4 EDs or every 3 mos, whichever comes first, until 20 EDs
every 10 EDs or every 3 mos, whichever comes first, after 20 EDs
in case of treatment failure or clinical suspicion
inhibitor detection confirmed on a 2nd sample obtained within 2 weeks
inhibitor titers monitored monthly for 6 mos.
epitope analysis on stored samples
20. FVIII Mutation Analysis Inversions of intron 22 and intron 1 in the FVIII gene are examined by PCR.
The FVIII gene is sequenced in both directions by automated sequencer.
The promoter, exons, intron-exon junctions, and the 3’ untranslated regions are examined.
