Abstract:

Introduction:

Etranacogene dezaparvovec gene therapy for haemophilia B demonstrated superior efficacy at 24 months in reducing bleeds versus a ≥6‐month lead‐in period of prophylaxis with FIX products in the phase 3 trial, HOPE‐B. In the absence of head‐to‐head comparisons of etranacogene dezaparvovec versus FIX products, indirect treatment comparisons (ITC) can be used.

Aim:

To compare the efficacy of etranacogene dezaparvovec versus rIX‐FP, rFIXFc and N9‐GP using ITC, and support HOPE‐B results.

Methods:

Data were leveraged from Phase 3 pivotal trials: HOPE‐B, PROLONG‐9FP, B‐LONG and Paradigm 2. Annualised bleeding rates (ABR), spontaneous (AsBR) and joint (AjBR) bleeding rates, percentage of patients with no bleeds, and FIX consumption were assessed using inverse probability of treatment weighting and matching adjusted indirect comparisons.

Results:

Etranacogene dezaparvovec demonstrated statistically significantly lower bleeding rates versus all comparators. Rate ratios for ABR, AsBR and AjBR versus rIX‐FP were 0.19 (p < .0001), 0.08 (p < .0001) and 0.09 (p < .0001), respectively. Rate ratios for ABR, AsBR and AjBR versus rFIXFc were 0.14 (p < .0001), 0.13 (p = .0083) and 0.15 (p = .0111), respectively. Rate ratios for ABR and AsBR, versus N9‐GP were 0.24 (p = .0231) and 0.13 (p = .0071), respectively. Etranacogene dezaparvovec demonstrated significantly higher percentage of patients with no bleeds versus rIX‐FP and rFIXFc; odds ratios: 17.60 (p < .0001) and 5.65 (p = .0037), respectively. Etranacogene dezaparvovec resulted in significantly lower FIX consumption than all comparators.

Conclusions:

ITC suggests that etranacogene dezaparvovec offers patients with haemophilia B (≤2% of normal FIX expression) a single dose treatment that can significantly reduce bleeding rates and eliminate routine infusions associated with FIX therapies.

Factor IX administration in the skin primes inhibitor formation and sensitizes hemophilia B mice to systemic factor IX administration

Article

作者: Sherman, Alexandra ; Kaczmarek, Radoslaw ; Arisa, Sreevani ; Herzog, Roland W ; Bertolini, Thais B

Background:

Factor IX inhibitor formation is the most serious complication of replacement therapy for the bleeding disorder hemophilia B, exacerbated by severe allergic reactions occurring in up to 60% of patients with inhibitors. Low success rates of immune tolerance induction therapy in hemophilia B necessitate the search for novel immune tolerance therapies. Skin-associated lymphoid tissues have been successfully targeted in allergen-specific immunotherapy.

Objectives:

We aimed to develop a prophylactic immune tolerance protocol based on intradermal administration of FIX that would prevent inhibitor formation and/or anaphylaxis in response to replacement therapy.

Methods:

We measured FIX inhibitor, anti-FIX immunoglobulin G1, and immunoglobulin E titers using the Bethesda assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay after 4 weeks of twice-weekly intradermal FIX or FIX-Fc administration followed by 5 to 6 weeks of weekly systemic FIX injections in C3H/HeJ hemophilia B mice. We also measured skin antigen-presenting, follicular helper T, and germinal center B cell frequencies in skin-draining lymph nodes after a single or repeat intradermal FIX administration.

Results:

Intradermal administration enhanced FIX inhibitor formation in response to systemic administration. We further found that intradermal administration alone triggers inhibitor formation, even at a low dose of 0.4 IU/kg, which is 100-fold lower than the intravenous dose of 40 IU/kg typically required to induce inhibitor development in hemophilia B mice. Also, intradermal administration triggered germinal center formation in skin-draining lymph nodes and sensitized mice to systemic administration. Factor IX-Fc fusion protein did not modulate inhibitor formation.

Conclusion:

Intradermal FIX administration is highly immunogenic, suggesting that the skin compartment is not amenable to immune tolerance induction or therapeutic delivery of clotting factors.

Extended half-life factor IX prophylaxis up to every 21 days in hemophilia B: a longitudinal analysis of the efficacy and safety in selected adult patients

Article

作者: Li, Yanyan ; Seifert, Wilfried ; Lissitchkov, Toshko ; Mancuso, Maria Elisa ; Lepatan, Lynda Mae ; Nagao, Asuza ; Pabinger, Ingrid

Background:

Extended half-life factor IX (FIX) products have revolutionized prophylactic treatment for patients with hemophilia B as patients maintain protective FIX levels with minimal occurrence of spontaneous bleeding. rIX-FP is an extended half-life FIX product that allows prolonged dosing intervals.

Objectives:

To assess individualized and prolonged prophylactic dosing interval up to 21 days in adult patients (≥18 years) with hemophilia B in the rIX-FP clinical trial program.

Methods:

Patients who were included in the PROLONG-9FP phase III study or who received rIX-FP during surgery could continue into an extension study for long-term assessment. Patients began 7-day prophylaxis with rIX-FP, and after 6 months, they could extend dosing intervals to every 14 days. In the extension study, adult patients could switch to a 21-day regimen if well-controlled on a 14-day regimen.

Results:

Eleven patients transitioned from a 7-day prophylaxis regimen to a 14-day regimen and finally to a 21-day regimen, 5 of whom were treated on demand at enrollment. Patients who switched to the 21-day regimen had a median annualized spontaneous bleeding rate of 0.0 across all regimens. The median observed FIX activity remained >5 IU/dL until day 21 after a single 100-IU/kg dose of rIX-FP. After 6 months on the 21-day regimen, 2 patients switched back to a 14-day regimen. No inhibitors, anaphylactic reactions, or thromboembolic events occurred.

Conclusion:

Patients who are well controlled on a once-weekly regimen might extend their treatment interval to 14 days, and in adult patients, further extension to up to 21 days (100 IU/kg) may be considered.
