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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 study tests a one-time gene therapy called BAY2599023 for adults with severe hemophilia A. The therapy uses a harmless virus to deliver a working copy of the factor VIII gene, so the body can produce its own clotting factor. The trial involves 11 participants and aims to find the safest and most effective dose. If it works, it may reduce or eliminate the need for regular clotting factor infusions.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
BAY2599023 (DTX201) – a gene therapy using a modified virus to deliver a working copy of the factor VIII gene
What this could lead to
If successful, this could allow people with severe hemophilia A to produce their own clotting factor, reducing or eliminating the need for regular infusions.
What could go wrong
This is an early, small trial (11 people) focused on safety and dosing. Gene therapy may not work for everyone, and long-term effects are unknown. There is a risk of immune reactions or the therapy not producing enough clotting factor.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Males age 18 years or older. * Confirmed diagnosis of hemophilia A as evidenced by their medical history with plasma FVIII activity levels \< 1% of normal or at screening. * Have \>150 exposure days (EDs) to FVIII concentrates (recombinant or plasma-derived). If on prophylaxis, are required to be willing to stop prophylactic treatment at specified time points throughout the study or If on-demand: should have had \> 4 bleeding events in the last 52 weeks \- Agree to use reliable barrier contraception. Exclusion Criteria: * History of allergic reaction to any FVIII product. * Clinically relevant findings in the physical examination considered critical by the treating physician, including obesity with BMI \> 35 kg/m\*2 * Current evidence of measurable inhibitor against factor VIII, prior history of inhibitors to FVIII protein or clinical history suggestive of inhibitor. * Evidence of active hepatitis B or C. * Currently on antiviral therapy for hepatitis B or C. * Significant underlying liver disease. * Serological evidence of HIV-1 or HIV-2 with CD4 counts ≤200/mm\*3; HIV+ and stable participants with CD4 count \>200/mm\*3 and undetectable viral load are eligible to enroll. * Detectable antibodies reactive with AAVhu37capsid. * Participant with another bleeding disorder that is different from hemophilia A (e.g., von Willebrand disease, hemophilia B). * Participated in a gene transfer trial within the last 52 weeks or in a clinical trial with an investigational product within the last 12 weeks. * Known or suspected hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to trial product(s) or related FVIII products or any component of BAY2599023 (DTX201), or a contraindication to prednisolone
