Results of a phase I/II open-label, safety and efficacy trial of coagulation factor IX (recombinant), albumin fusion protein in haemophilia B patients.

ABSTRACT: rIX-FP is a coagulation factor IX (recombinant), albumin fusion protein with more than fivefold half-life prolongation over other standard factor IX (FIX) products available on the market.This prospective phase II, open-label study evaluated the safety and efficacy of rIX-FP for the prevention of bleeding episodes during weekly prophylaxis and assessed the haemostatic efficacy for on-demand treatment of bleeding episodes in previously treated patients with haemophilia B.The study consisted of a 10-14 day evaluation of rIX-FP pharmacokinetics (PK), and an 11 month safety and efficacy evaluation period with subjects receiving weekly prophylaxis treatment. Safety was evaluated by the occurrence of related adverse events, and immunogenic events, including development of inhibitors. Efficacy was evaluated by annualized spontaneous bleeding rate (AsBR), and the number of injections to achieve haemostasis.Seventeen subjects participated in the study, 13 received weekly prophylaxis and 4 received episodic treatment only. No inhibitors were detected in any subject. The mean and median AsBR were 1.25, and 1.13 respectively in the weekly prophylaxis arm. All bleeding episodes were treated with 1 or 2 injections of rIX-FP. Three prophylaxis subjects who were treated on demand prior to study entry had >85% reduction in AsBR compared to the bleeding rate prior to study entry.This study demonstrated the efficacy for weekly routine prophylaxis of rIX-FP to prevent spontaneous bleeding episodes and for the treatment of bleeding episodes. In addition no safety issues were detected during the study and an improved PK profile was demonstrated.

Project description:IntroductionProphylactic treatment of hemophilia B with recombinant factor IX (rFIX) molecules with enhanced pharmacokinetics including rIX-FP (albutrepenonacog alfa; Idelvion©) and rFIXFc (eftrenonacog alfa; Alprolix©) have commonly been used in the clinic. In the absence of head-to-head comparative trials, the aim of this study was to estimate the efficacy of rIX-FP versus rFIXFc using matching-adjusted indirect comparisons (MAICs).MethodsMAIC analyses leveraged individual patient data from the PROLONG-9FP trial and published summary-level data from the B-LONG trial for subjects who received weekly prophylaxis regimens. Individual patient data were used to assign weights and balance subjects from PROLONG-9FP with subjects from B-LONG on baseline disease severity, age, prior FIX regimen, and body mass index (BMI). Six efficacy outcomes were analyzed including annualized bleeding rate (ABR), annualized spontaneous bleeding rate (AsBR), annualized joint bleeding rate (AjBR), and the proportion of subjects without bleeding events (for total, spontaneous, and joint bleeding events).ResultsAfter adjustment for baseline disease severity, age, prior FIX regimen, and BMI, rIX-FP was associated with a statistically significant decrease in AsBR (rate ratio [RR] 0.42; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.22, 0.82; P = 0.0107), and the proportion of patients without bleeding events (odds ratio [OR] 3.24; 95% CI 1.41, 7.45; P = 0.0057), spontaneous bleeding events (OR 3.47; 95% CI 1.56, 7.73; P = 0.0023), and joint bleeding events (OR 2.41; 95% CI 1.10, 5.26; P = 0.0274) compared with rFIXFc. Prophylactic treatment with rIX-FP was also associated with a numerically lower ABR (RR 0.75; 95% CI 0.32, 1.75; P = 0.5095) and AjBR (RR 0.82; 95% CI 0.37, 1.82; P = 0.6178).ConclusionThe MAICs demonstrated that weekly prophylaxis treatment of severe hemophilia B with rIX-FP resulted in favorable efficacy outcomes as compared to rFIXFc. These findings suggest rIX-FP may offer improved clinical benefits over rFIXFc.
