Safety and Efficacy of Moroctocog Alfa (AF-CC) in Chinese Patients with Hemophilia A: Results of Two Open-Label Studies.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Moroctocog alfa albumin-free cell culture (AF-CC) increases plasma levels of factor VIII (FVIII) activity and, in China, is indicated for the control and prevention of bleeding episodes in patients with hemophilia A. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and recovery data of moroctocog alfa (AF-CC) in patients with hemophilia participating in two open-label studies, both conducted in China.

Methods: The authorization study (clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT00868530) enrolled patients aged ?6 years, previously treated with ?1 exposure day of FVIII replacement therapy. The real-world study (clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT02492984) enrolled patients of any age who were previously untreated or requiring surgical prophylaxis. In both studies, on-demand treatment was administered over 6 months. Key assessments included response to treatment, FVIII inhibitor development, and recovery.

Results: In the authorization study (N = 53; mean age, 23.2 years; severe hemophilia, 23%), response was excellent/good for 90% of infusions at 24 hours. Seven patients developed inhibitors. Mean (SD) FVIII recovery at the initial and final visits was 1.77 (0.50) and 1.67 (0.45) (IU/dL)/(IU/kg), respectively. In the real-world study (N = 85; mean age, 9.5 years; severe hemophilia, 58%), response was rated as excellent or good for most (87%) on-demand infusions and for all surgical prophylaxis patients (n = 14). Seven patients developed FVIII inhibitors. Mean (SD) FVIII recovery at the initial and final visits was 1.71 (0.50) and 1.68 (0.31) (IU/dL)/(IU/kg), respectively. No new safety signals were observed in either study.

Conclusion: On-demand treatment and surgical prophylaxis with moroctocog alfa (AF-CC) is safe and effective for both previously treated and previously untreated Chinese patients with hemophilia A.

Project description:BackgroundHypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) in men results in insufficient testicular function and deficiencies in testosterone and spermatogenesis. Combinations of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (recFSH) have been successful in the treatment of HH. Corifollitropin alfa is a long-acting FSH-analog with demonstrated action in women seeking infertility care. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of corifollitropin alfa combined with hCG to increase testicular volume and induce spermatogenesis in men with HH.MethodsThis was a Phase III, multi-center, open-label, single-arm trial of corifollitropin alfa in azoospermic men aged 18 to 50 years with HH. After 16 weeks of pretreatment of 23 subjects with hCG alone, 18 subjects with normalized testosterone (T) levels who remained azoospermic entered the 52-week combined treatment phase with hCG twice-weekly and 150 μg corifollitropin alfa every other week. The increase in testicular volume (primary efficacy endpoint) and induction of spermatogenesis resulting in a sperm count ≥1 × 106/mL (key secondary efficacy endpoint) during 52 weeks of combined treatment were assessed. Safety was evaluated by the presence of anti-corifollitropin alfa antibodies and the occurrence of adverse events (AEs).ResultsMean (±SD) testicular volume increased from 8.6 (±6.09) mL to 17.8 (±8.93) mL (geometric mean fold increase, 2.30 [95% CI: 2.03, 2.62]); 14 (77.8%) subjects reached a sperm count ≥1 × 106/mL. No subject developed confirmed anti-corifollitropin alfa antibodies during the trial. Treatment was generally well tolerated.ConclusionsCorifollitropin alfa 150 μg administrated every other week combined with twice-weekly hCG for 52 weeks increased testicular volume significantly, and induced spermatogenesis in >75% of men with HH who had remained azoospermic after hCG treatment alone.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01709331 .

Project description:BackgroundDrisapersen induces exon 51 skipping during dystrophin pre-mRNA splicing and allows synthesis of partially functional dystrophin in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients with amenable mutations.MethodsThis 188-week open-label extension of the dose-escalation study assessed the long-term efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of drisapersen (PRO051/GSK2402968), 6 mg/kg subcutaneously, in 12 DMD subjects. Dosing was once weekly for 72 weeks. All subjects had a planned treatment interruption (weeks 73-80), followed by intermittent dosing (weeks 81-188).ResultsSubjects received a median (range) total dose of 5.93 (5.10 to 6.02) mg/kg drisapersen. After 177 weeks (last efficacy assessment), median (mean [SD]) six-minute walk distance (6MWD) improved by 8 (-24.5 [161]) meters for the 10 subjects able to complete the 6MWD at baseline (mean age [SD]: 9.5 [1.9] years). These statistics include 2 subjects unable to complete the test at later visits and who scored "zero". When only the 8 ambulant subjects at week 177 were taken into account, a median (mean [SD]) increase of 64 (33 [121]) meters in 6MWD was observed. Of 7 subjects walking ≥330 m at extension baseline, 5 walked farther at week 177. Of 3 subjects walking <330 m, 2 lost ambulation, while 1 declined overall but walked farther at some visits. Over the 188 weeks, the most common adverse events were injection-site reactions, raised urinary α1-microglobulin and proteinuria. Dystrophin expression was detected in all muscle biopsies obtained at week 68 or 72.ConclusionDrisapersen was generally well tolerated over 188 weeks. Possible renal effects, thrombocytopenia and injection-site reactions warrant continued monitoring. Improvements in the 6MWD at 12 weeks were sustained after 3.4 years of dosing for most patients. For a small, uncontrolled study, the outcomes are encouraging, as natural history studies would anticipate a decline of over 100 meters over a 3-year period in a comparable cohort.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT01910649.
