Nonacog beta pegol (N9-GP) in hemophilia B: First report on safety and efficacy in previously untreated and minimally treated patients.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objective:We report the first analysis of an extended half-life recombinant factor IX, nonacog beta pegol (N9-GP), in previously untreated patients (PUPs) and minimally treated patients with hemophilia B. Methods:Paradigm 6 (Safety and Efficacy of Nonacog Beta Pegol [N9-GP] in Previously Untreated Patients With Haemophilia B) is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, phase 3 trial. Main inclusion criteria were males aged < 6 years, with hemophilia B with factor IX (FIX) activity ? 2%, who were previously untreated or with ? 3 exposure days (EDs) to FIX-containing products. Patients received N9-GP 40 IU/kg once weekly (prophylaxis) or individualized dosing (preprophylaxis). Bleeds were treated with N9-GP 40 IU/kg (80 IU/kg if severe). The primary end point was incidence of anti-FIX inhibitory antibodies (inhibitors). Secondary end points included safety outcomes and annualized bleeding rate (ABR). Results:At data cutoff (August 31, 2018), 38 patients had been screened, and 37 had received N9-GP (median age, 1.0 years [range, 0-4]). Total in-trial EDs amounted to 2833, representing ~ 65 patient-years. Two (6.1%) of 33 "at-risk" patients (patients with ? 10 EDs plus patients who developed inhibitors) developed high-titer inhibitors and were withdrawn. No other safety concerns, including thromboembolic events, were identified. In the prophylaxis group (n = 28), 67.9% were bleed free; all bleeds (n = 15) were treated with one N9-GP injection; and overall, spontaneous, and traumatic ABRs were low (median ABRs of 0.0, 0.0, and 0.0, respectively; modeled mean ABRs of 0.31, 0.08, and 0.23, respectively). Estimated mean FIX trough activity was 15.0%. Conclusion:We report an inhibitor incidence of 6.1%, which is within the expected range for PUPs with hemophilia B. No other safety concerns were identified; moreover, N9-GP provided effective hemostatic coverage.

Project description:PurposeTo illustrate the benefits of the extended half-life (EHL) recombinant factor VIII product N8-GP (Esperoct®, turoctocog alfa pegol) by describing individual cases of patients with severe hemophilia A treated with N8-GP in the pathfinder clinical trial program.Patients and methodsThis manuscript presents selected patient cases from the pivotal pathfinder clinical trial program, which included a number of clinical studies in adults (pathfinder 2 and 3) and children (pathfinder 5); overall results published previously. Clinical data and outcomes described in this manuscript are more detailed and derived from several interesting patient cases (five adults from pathfinder 2 and two children from pathfinder 5), who received N8-GP as prophylaxis (PPX) for their severe hemophilia A. Three of the five adults described here also underwent multiple major surgeries (for which they moved from pathfinder 2 into pathfinder 3 and later returned to pathfinder 2). New analyses on pediatric joint health from pathfinder 5 are also summarized here. Outcomes assessed included bleeding complications, improvements in quality of life, intraoperative hemostatic response, blood loss during surgery, number of blood transfusions, and annualized bleeding rates. For the pediatric patients, target joint resolution, adverse events, and annualized joint bleeding rate were also assessed, all by the treating physician.ResultsConsiderable improvements in treatment adherence, bleeding rates, and overall physical activity levels were demonstrated in two adult cases from the pathfinder 2 trial. N8-GP demonstrated good or excellent hemostatic coverage in three adult patients undergoing multiple major surgeries. The benefits of N8-GP for joint health and in support of children and adolescents with evolving active lifestyles were reported for several pediatric cases.ConclusionThese patient cases highlight the benefits of EHL products, such as N8-GP, for patients with severe hemophilia A. They include more challenging scenarios relating to improvements in previously poor adherence to PPX, children with active sporting lifestyles, and patients requiring multiple major surgeries.
