- The trials will be resumed as soon as local procedures allow. This follows pausing of the trials in Mar’20 due to the occurrence of non-fatal thrombotic events in 3 patients enrolled in the ongoing P-III program
- In Oct 2019- Novo Nordisk has initiated the explorer7 study to establish the safety and efficacy of concizumab (SC- qd) delivered in a pen device to reduce the number of bleeds in patients with hemophilia A or B with inhibitors towards FVIII/ FIX. In Nov 2019- the company initiated P-III explorer8 study in hemophilia A or B patients without inhibitors. The trials are to enroll ~293 patients across 32 countries
