Hemophilia A: comparing long-acting FVIII replacement vs non-FVIII therapy in kids
Official title: Hemostatic Potential in Patients With Severe Hemophilia A on Novel Replacement and Substitution FVIII Therapies (TG-INSIGHT With Joint POCUS)
Run by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center · NCT07692217 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests whether children with moderate to severe Hemophilia A on long-acting FVIII or non-FVIII therapies form clots differently and develop small joint bleeds or early joint changes.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Children with moderate to severe Hemophilia A (FVIII <1% or 1-4%) who are on prophylaxis with extended half-life FVIII or non-FVIII therapy for at least two months and are older than 6 months.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients not receiving either listed therapy or those with active FVIII inhibitors or other bleeding disorders may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This is an observational comparative effectiveness study in children with moderate or severe Hemophilia A who are treated with either extended half-life FVIII replacement therapy or a non-FVIII therapy as part of standard care. The researchers will collect joint health data, patient-reported outcomes, and lab results over three years to compare hemostatic potential, annual bleeding rates, and joint health using imaging and the Hemophilia Joint Health Score. The study uses CER methods to analyze differences between the two treatment approaches in real-world practice. Enrollment targets participants who are on prophylaxis with either emicizumab or efanesoctocog alfa for at least two months and are over 6 months old. Key endpoints include bleeding frequency, subclinical joint bleeds, and structural joint changes. This is the first systematic observational comparison of these two conventional therapies in pwHA.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: Participants could gain better understanding of which therapy might offer improved joint health and fewer bleeds over time.
How similar studies have gone: There is limited prior systematic observational research directly comparing these two standard-of-care therapies in this age group; this study addresses a novel, real-world comparison.
