What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether elranatamab, a drug used in cancer, can safely and effectively eliminate factor VIII inhibitors in adults with moderate-to-severe hemophilia A. Participants receive weekly injections for three weeks, with a follow-up period to monitor changes in inhibitor levels. The goal is to see if this approach can help patients who have a poor prognosis for inhibitor eradication.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
elranatamab
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a new way to eliminate factor VIII inhibitors in hemophilia A, potentially improving treatment options and quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is an early, small exploratory study (15-20 patients). It may not work for everyone, and elranatamab can cause side effects, including immune-related reactions.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 20 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Oct 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Oct 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Male or female patients with moderate-to-severe hemophilia A (factor VIII activity \<2%). * Aged 18 to 65 years, inclusive. * Positive factor VIII inhibitor detected on at least two consecutive occasions (inhibitor titer \>0.6 BU/mL). * Baseline factor VIII inhibitor titer \>10 BU/mL at the time of enrollment. Exclusion Criteria: * Known hypersensitivity to Elranatamab or any of its excipients. * Presence of other autoimmune diseases or a need for immunosuppressive therapy for reasons unrelated to this study. * History of malignancy within 5 years prior to screening, with the exception of adequately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix or non-metastatic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma. * History of severe recurrent or chronic infections, or acute infection requiring systemic treatment with antibiotics, antivirals, antiparasitics, antiprotozoals, or antifungal agents within 4 weeks before the first dose or during the screening period, or superficial skin infection requiring systemic therapy within 1 week before the first dose. * Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at screening, including: 1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) \>3 × the upper limit of normal (ULN). 2. Total bilirubin \>1.5 × ULN (subjects with documented Gilbert syndrome are not excluded based on this criterion); 3. Absolute neutrophil count \<1,500/mm³; 4. Hemoglobin \<9 g/dL or immunoglobulin G (IgG) \<500 mg/dL; 5. Absolute lymphocyte count \<500/mm³; 6. Creatinine clearance (CrCl) \<30 mL/min. * Positive test for HIV antibody or syphilis antibody. * Positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg); or positive hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) with detectable HBV DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Subjects positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody are excluded. * Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or who plan to become pregnant or breastfeed during the study; men whose partners plan to become pregnant during the study. * Subjects with psychiatric disorders that impair their ability to provide informed consent or comply with study procedures and follow-up. * Subjects with unresolved toxicities from prior therapies before study participation. * Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for participation in the study.
