Trial Information

The Second Multicenter Hemophilia Cohort Study


The Second Multicenter Hemophilia Cohort Study (MHCS-II) will evaluate and prospectively
follow approximately 4500 persons with hemophilia who were exposed to hepatitis C virus
(HCV). The vast majority will have been infected with HCV, and approximately 1/3 will have
been infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Primary objectives are to quantify
the rates of liver decompensation, hepatocellular carcinoma, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma and to
evaluate candidate clinical, genetic, virologic, serologic and immunologic markers that are
likely to be on the causal pathway for these conditions. Candidate clinical and laboratory
markers will be examined longitudinally to define changes over time and their relationships
to one another. Collaborative studies will focus on genome scanning and evaluation of
candidate genetic loci for susceptibility or resistance to HCV and HIV infections or to the
diseases that result from these infections. Additional studies will identify response and
complication rates of various anti-HCV and anti-HIV regimens in the setting of comprehensive
clinical care of persons with hemophilia.

Inclusion Criteria


- INCLUSION CRITERIA:

Must be registered patient with an inherited coagulation disorder at a participating
MHCS-II center. Disorders include hemophilia A or B (congenital factor VIII or IX
deficiency), deficiencies in other factors such as V or XI, and vonWillebrand's disease.
(Unless noted otherwise, all of the disorders will collectively be referred to as
hemophilia .) All such hemophilia and vonWillebrand's disease patients are to be
recruited as study participants.

Since January 1, 1993, must have had at least one positive result on a licensed assay for
HCV antibodies, HIV antibodies, or HIV RNA.

Must be at least 13 years of age at enrollment.

Must provide signed informed consent or, for minors, signed assent plus signed informed
consent from the parent or guardian.

EXCLUSION CRITERIA:

Is not a patient with an inherited coagulation disorder.

Does not have a positive test for HCV antibodies, HIV antibodies, or HIV RNA on a licensed
assay performed since January 1, 1993.

Is less than 13 years of age.

Lacks informed consent/assent.
