(SYNOVIIIUS)
What this study is about
The objective of the study is to assess the improvement of synovial hypertrophy during the 12 months of efanesoctocog alfa prophylaxis once per week (QW) in joints with existing evidence of synovial hypertrophy in participants with hemophilia A. The study duration for each participant is approximately 12 months.

The objective of the study is to assess the improvement of synovial hypertrophy during the 12 months of efanesoctocog alfa prophylaxis once per week (QW) in joints with existing evidence of synovial hypertrophy in participants with hemophilia A. The study duration for each participant is approximately 12 months.
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Participant is diagnosed with moderate to severe hemophilia A (defined as less than or equal to (≤)5 percent (%) of endogenous FVIII clotting activity) at the time of consent/assent. Participant is more than or equal to (≥)12 years old at the time of consent/assent. Participant has existing synovial hypertrophy, defined as at least 1 eligible\
- joint by the HEAD-US score (Synovitis score: 1 or 2) at the time of consent/assent. Participant has at least 1 eligible\
- joint without planned future major orthopedic procedures (example, arthroscopic synovectomy, radioisotopic or chemical synoviorthesis), or major orthopedic procedures in the past 3 months prior to the screening visit (Visit 1). \*An eligible joint is a joint with existing synovial hypertrophy, as defined by a HEAD-US synovitis score of 1 or 2, considering hypertrophic synovium as an indication of the presence of synovitis Participant has received prophylactic treatment with hemophilia prophylaxis prescriptions in the last 12 months prior to the baseline visit (Visit 2). Participant is capable of understanding the written Informed Consent Form (ICF)/assent form, provides a signed and witnessed written ICF/assent form, and agrees to comply with the protocol requirements. If male, no contraceptive measures are required for this study. If female, is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and one of the following conditions applies: Is a women of nonchildbearing potential (WONCBP) Is a women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and agrees to use a highly effective contraceptive method, with a failure rate of less than (\<)1 percent during the study treatment period (at least until the Week 52/ End of Treatment \[EoT\] visit). A WOCBP must have a negative serum pregnancy test at the screening visit (Visit 1)
Exclusion criteria
- Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply: Has other associated clotting disorders at the time of consent/assent. Is already under efanesoctocog alfa treatment. Has a current diagnosis of an factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor, defined as inhibitor titer ≥0.60 BU/mL. Has ITI within the last 2 years prior to the baseline visit (Visit 2). Has been enrolled in a concurrent clinical interventional study or exposed to other investigational drug(s) within 3 months prior to screening for this study. Is currently in an institution because of regulatory or legal order (that is, is a prisoner or a patient who is legally institutionalized). Is not suitable for participation, whatever the reason, as judged by the investigator, including medical or clinical conditions, or patients potentially at risk of noncompliance to study procedures. Is an employee or family member of the investigator or site personnel. Is involved in a specific situation during study implementation or the course of the study that may raise ethics considerations. Has hypersensitivity to efanesoctocog alfa or its components or any of its excipients that, in the opinion of the investigator, contraindicates participation in the study.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
