Real-World Utilisation and Bleed Rates in Patients with Haemophilia B Who Switched to Recombinant Factor IX Fusion Protein (rIX-FP): A Retrospective International Analysis.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:Despite the well-documented benefits of prophylaxis, treatment burden is still a barrier to adherence in patients with haemophilia. An extended half-life fusion protein linking recombinant FIX (rFIX) with human albumin (rIX-FP) has been developed for the treatment of patients with haemophilia B and is indicated for dosing up to every 14 days. This analysis evaluated real-world outcomes in patients switching to rIX-FP from the previous FIX product in Italy, Belgium and the UK. METHODS:Anonymised chart data were collected from the pre-existing medical records of patients with haemophilia B between May and September 2018. Patients were included in the analysis if they had been treated with rIX-FP for???8 weeks. Data were compared between rIX-FP and the patient's prior FIX product. RESULTS:Twenty-three HTCs from Italy (n?=?13), Belgium (n?=?3) and the UK (n?=?7) provided data for 84 male patients, 92.8% of which had severe haemophilia B. The majority of patients were previously on prophylactic regimens with their prior FIX product (Italy, 44/49; Belgium, 7/10; UK, 22/25). The switch to prophylaxis with rIX-FP led to reductions in mean annualised bleeding rate of 94.3% in Italy, 93.9% in Belgium and 67.7% in the UK compared with prior FIX prophylaxis. Overall, 41% of patients experienced zero spontaneous bleeds prior to switching, compared with 88% following the switch to rIX-FP. The majority of patients had a reduction in dosing frequency following the switch, with 98.6% of patients dosing once weekly or less frequently compared with 9.6% of patients dosing at this frequency with their prior FIX. Mean weekly FIX consumption was reduced compared with prior FIX prophylaxis. CONCLUSION:This retrospective review of real-world evidence demonstrated that switching to rIX-FP from prior FIX was associated with improved haemostatic efficacy and reduced factor consumption in patients with haemophilia B from Italy, Belgium and the UK.

Project description:Schizophrenia is an idiopathic disorder that affects approximately 1% of the human population, and presents with persistent delusions, hallucinations, and disorganized behaviors. Antipsychotics are the standard pharmacological treatment for schizophrenia, but are frequently discontinued by patients due to inefficacy and/or side effects. Chronic treatment with the typical antipsychotic haloperidol causes tardive dyskinesia (TD), which manifests as involuntary and often irreversible orofacial movements in around 30% of patients. Mice treated with haloperidol develop many of the features of TD, including jaw tremors, tongue protrusions, and vacuous chewing movements (VCMs). In this study, we used genetically diverse Collaborative Cross (CC) recombinant inbred inter-cross (RIX) mice to elucidate the genetic basis of antipsychotic-induced adverse drug reactions (ADRs). We performed a battery of behavioral tests in 840 mice from 73 RIX lines (derived from 62 CC strains) treated with haloperidol or placebo in order to monitor the development of ADRs. We used linear mixed models to test for strain and treatment effects. We observed highly significant strain effects for almost all behavioral measurements investigated (P < 0.001). Further, we observed strong strain-by-treatment interactions for most phenotypes, particularly for changes in distance traveled, vertical activity, and extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). Estimates of overall heritability ranged from 0.21 (change in body weight) to 0.4 (VCMs and change in distance traveled) while the portion attributable to the interactions of treatment and strain ranged from 0.01 (for change in body weight) to 0.15 (for change in EPS). Interestingly, close to 30% of RIX mice exhibited VCMs, a sensitivity to haloperidol exposure, approximately similar to the rate of TD in humans chronically exposed to haloperidol. Understanding the genetic basis for the susceptibility to antipsychotic ADRs may be possible in mouse, and extrapolation to humans could lead to safer therapeutic approaches for schizophrenia.
