About this trial

The PROBE Phase-3 study will collect data on patient reported outcomes, burdens, and experiences in patients living with hemophilia. The investigators will perform comparisons among countries, within country over time, within country against national normative data.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

PWH will be recruited through national hemophilia patient organizations utilizing their existing membership rosters, social media outlets and meetings / events. The investigators are not proposing a pre-determined method of PWH recruitment. They will utilize the information acquired in the workshop and take-home project to inform best practice in recruitment methodology for the study. The investigators may consider requesting different countries test different PWH recruitment strategies to test reproducibility.

Disqualifiers

Disease severity and Age bands or age limits (e.g. ≥ Age 18) may be utilized to narrow the study population.

Trial population

Moderate / Severe PWH (Age bands or limits may be utilized to narrow the study population). Patients will be recruited according to the final inclusion criteria. No randomization will be required. Two moderate to large test runs of the inventory will be conducted in each country three months apart to demonstrate reproducibility. PWH participating in each of the two test runs may, but would not necessarily be the same.
