7 Von Willebrand Disease Trials

Power is an online platform that helps thousands of Von Willebrand Disease patients discover FDA-reviewed trials every day. Every trial we feature meets safety and ethical standards, giving patients an easy way to discover promising new treatments in the research stage.

The main aim of the study is to check effectiveness of rVWF (vonicog alfa) prophylaxis based on the annualized bleeding rate (ABR) of spontaneous (not related to trauma) bleeding episodes in pediatric and adult participants during the first 12 months on study treatment. The participants will be treated with rVWF for a maximum of 3 years. Their von Willebrand Disease will be treated according to Investigational product (IP) dosing directions.

The main aim of the study is to check effectiveness, side effects, and tolerability of recombinant von Willebrand Factor (rVWF), with or without ADVATE, in the treatment and control of nonsurgical bleeding events in pediatric participants (less than (\<)18 years of age) with severe hereditary von Willebrand disease (VWD). The participants will be treated with rVWF for 12-18 months. Their von Willebrand Disease will be treated by their doctor according to their doctor's usual clinical practice. During the study, participants will be followed up at clinics or over telephone calls.

The main aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of prophylaxis with vonicog alfa (recombinant von Willebrand factor \[rVWF\]) in children. This study will enroll those participants who have been previously treated with VWF product or with a plasma-derived VWF (pdVWF) product. In this study, participants will be treated with vonicog alfa (rVWF) for 12 months. During the study, participants will visit the study clinic 5 times after treatment initiation.

VGA039 for Von Willebrand Disease

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
This trial tests VGA039, a new drug, in healthy people and those with Von Willebrand disease. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it behaves in the body when injected. Participants will be monitored for a period of time after receiving the drug.

The EMPOWER trial is a pilot multi-center, placebo-controlled (normal saline), double-blind (patient and outcome assessor), crossover, 2-year randomized trial in female outpatients with von Willebrand disease (VWD) and heavy menstrual bleeding to determine trial feasibility and viability, and to explore assay sensitivity of the proposed efficacy clinical outcomes for a definitive randomized controlled trial

This trial tests Emicizumab, an injectable medication that helps blood to clot, in patients with severe Von Willebrand Disease (VWD) and those with both VWD and hemophilia A. These patients often have severe bleeding that current treatments can't easily manage. Emicizumab works by mimicking a natural blood-clotting protein to help prevent bleeding. It has been approved globally for reducing bleeding in hemophilia A patients.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Von Willebrand Disease clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Von Willebrand Disease clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Von Willebrand Disease trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Von Willebrand Disease is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Von Willebrand Disease medical study ?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Von Willebrand Disease clinical trials ?

Most recently, we added Recombinant Von Willebrand Factor for Von Willebrand Disease, Wilate for Von Willebrand Disease and Neurostimulation for Heavy Menstrual Bleeding to the Power online platform.
