Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Mean Number of Daily Active Minutes of Physical Activity Performed by Participants (by Age Categories: 12-17, 18-30, and 31-50 Years) Over the Course of the Study

Physical activity data was collected as daily active minutes measured on each valid day by wearing a fitness tracker continuously during study participation. Valid day = a day in which fitness tracker was worn for at least 10 hours. Daily active minutes were saved in two different sets of data collected by fitness tracker. For each set minutes were categorized by intensity of activity done. First set = minutes categorized according to time collected in each heart zone. Overall heart zone minutes = fat-burn minutes (heart rate: 50-69% of maximum) + cardio minutes (medium-to-high intensity exercise zone corresponds to heart rate: 70-84% of maximum) + peak minutes (high-intensity exercise zone, corresponds to heart rate \> 85% of maximum). Second set =minutes categorized according to active zones. Overall active zone minutes=lightly active minutes +fairly active minutes+very active minutes. Moderate-to-Vigorous Physical Activity (MVPA) minutes=Fairly active minutes+Very active minutes.

Time frame: From baseline to study completion (up to 18 months)

Mean Number of Steps Taken Per Day by Participants (by Age Categories: 12-17, 18-30, and 31-50 Years) Over the Course of the Study

Number of steps taken by the participants on each valid day were measured by wearing a fitness tracker continuously during study participation. Valid day was defined as a day in which fitness tracker was worn for at least 10 hours.

Time frame: From baseline to study completion (up to 18 months)

Mean Metabolic Equivalent of Tasks (METs) Per Day Performed by Participants (by Age Categories: 12-17, 18-30, and 31-50 Years) Over the Course of the Study

The MET is an objective measure of the ratio of the rate at which a person expends energy, relative to the mass of that person, while performing some specific physical activity compared to a reference. The METs were derived as: (amount of kilo calories (kcal) collected in the fat-burn, cardio, and peak minutes) / \[(sum of fat-burn, cardio and peak hours) \* weight of the participant in kilograms (kg)\].

Time frame: From baseline to study completion (up to 18 months)

Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL): European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) Health State Utility Index Score Over Time

The EQ-5D-5L is a standardized measure of health status developed by the EuroQol Group in order to provide a simple, generic measure of health for clinical and economic appraisal. The EQ-5D-5L includes five levels of severity in each of the five EuroQol-5D dimensions and the EQ VAS. The descriptive system comprises 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression), each dimension having 5 levels (1=no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems, and 5=extreme problems). Response options are measured with a 5-point Likert scale. The 5D-5L systems are converted into a single index utility score between 0 to 1, where higher score indicates a better health state and lower score indicate worse health state. EQ-5D-5L questionnaire was submitted to the participants every 3 month from baseline during the study.

Time frame: Baseline, Months 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18

The VAS records the respondent's self-rated health on a 20 cm vertical VAS from 0 to 100 on how good or bad their health is at assessment; 0 means the worst health imaginable, and 100 means the best health imaginable.

HJHS Total Score for Participants With Moderate Versus Severe Haemophilia A

The HJHS is an instrument developed to measure joint health status and to identify early signs of joint disease in children. This tool assesses joints most commonly affected by bleeding (knees, ankles, and elbows). Each of the 6 joints is assessed across 8 domains (Swelling, Duration of Swelling, Atrophy, Crepitus, Flexion Loss, Extension Loss, Pain, and Strength), and a Total Score is calculated as the sum of all joint domain scores. The total score range is from 0 to 124 points (a score of 0 indicates no joint damage). A higher score indicates higher joint damage.
