Pharmacokinetic Difference

Introduction Turoctocog alfa is a B domain truncated human recombinant FVIII for treatment of patients with hemophilia A. The production yields a highly homogenous product with the same tyrosine sulphation as human FVIII. In order to confirm the consistency of turoctocog alfa pharmacokinetics (PK) over different production lots and vial strengths, a clinical trial was performed in 15 patients with severe hemophilia A. Aim To compare the PK of 3 lots of 2000 IU/vial and 1 lot of 3000 IU/vial of turoctocog alfa after i.v. administration of 50 IU/kg in patients with severe haemophilia A. Methods This was a multi-centre, open-label trial investigating the PK of 4 lots of turoctocog alfa (3 lots of 2000 IU/vial; Lots A, B and C, and 1 lot of 3000 IU/vial; Lot D) in patients with severe hemophilia A (FVIII<1%). The trial was performed as a two-period, incomplete block, cross-over trial, in which each patient was allocated at random to a predefined sequence of 2 different lots of turoctocog alfa. The FVIII activity was assessed using both the one-stage clot and chromogenic assays. Both the primary endpoint, normalized AUC (AUC*(planned dose/actual dose)), and the secondary PK endpoints were analyzed by ANCOVA on the log transformed values, with lot, visit and patient as fixed effects. Each of the three 2000 IU/vial lots was compared and tested against the 2 other 2000 IU/vial lots. If not significantly different on a 5% level, the 3 lots were pooled together and tested against the 3000 IU/vial lot. Results Fifteen patients with a mean age of 38.6 years (ranging from 21 to 60 years) were included from 3 hemophilia centres in 3 different countries. Three adverse events (AEs) were reported in the trial by 2 separate patients; all AEs were judged to be unlikely related to the trial product. There was no development of inhibitors. There was no pharmacokinetic difference observed between Lots A, B, C (2000 IU/vials) and there was no pharmacokinetic difference observed between the pooled data from lot A, B and C (2000 IU/vial) and lot D (3000 IU/vial) based on normalized AUC, half-life, incremental recovery and clearance. The estimated mean values (with 90% CI) for the PK parameters based on the chromogenic assay are presented in Table 1. The results were similar for the one-stage clot assay and the chromogenic assay. Conclusions No pharmacokinetic differences were observed between the three 2000 IU/vial lots (Lot A, Lot B and Lot C), nor were there pharmacokinetic differences between Lot D (3000 IU/vial) and pooled data from Lots A, B and C, based on normalized AUC, half-life, incremental recovery and clearance. There were no safety concerns and no inhibitor development in the trial. Disclosures: Jiménez-Yuste: Novo Nordisk: Consultancy, Research Funding, Speakers Bureau.

Background. The one-stage assay is the most common method to measure factor VIII activity (FVIII : C) in hemophilia A patients. The chromogenic assay is another two-stage test involving purified coagulation factors followed by factor Xa-specific chromogenic substrate. Aim. This study aimed to assess the discrepancy and correlation between the chromogenic and one-stage assays in measuring FVIII : C levels in hemophilia patients receiving Extended Half-Life Elocta® as a recombinant extended half-life coagulation factor. Methods. We performed a study comparing the measurements of FVIII : C levels by the chromogenic versus the one-stage assays at different drug levels. Data of FVIII : C levels, dosage, and the time interval from administration to measurement were retrieved from the hospital records. The correlation, mean differences, and discrepancy between the two assays were calculated. The linear regression analysis was used to predict the time interval till reaching 1% FVIII : C. Results. Fourteen patients with 56 samples were included in the study. Of them, 13 patients were receiving Elocta® as a prophylactic, while one was receiving Elocta® on demand. One-third of these samples showed a discrepancy between the chromogenic and one-stage assays. The two assays were well correlated. Mean differences were significant at the individual and the time interval level. The time since the last Elocta® injection could significantly predict FVIII : C levels (β = 0.366, P<0.001). Conclusion. Our findings suggested a significant difference between both methods; the FVIII : C levels measured by the one-stage assay were less than those estimated by the chromogenic assay. However, the measurements of FVIII levels by the two assays were well correlated but discrepant in one-third of the samples. The levels of FVIII : C reach 1% after 5.4 days since the last Elocta® administration.

Abstract Introduction: Inhibitor development is a major complication of factor VIII (FVIII) replacement therapy, affecting approximately 30% of people with severe hemophilia A (Peyvandi et al Lancet 2016). Inhibitor eradication is the standard of care to restore responsiveness to FVIII; however, ITI regimens often require frequent high-dose factor injections over a long period (DiMichele et al Haemophilia 2007; Carcao et al Haemophilia 2021). Median (interquartile range [IQR]) time (months) to negative titer in the International ITI Study with high-dose FVIII was 4.6 (2.8-13.8) (n=31); negative titer to normal recovery was 6.9 (3.5-12.0) (n=23); and normal recovery to tolerance was 10.6 (6.3-20.5) (n=22) (Hay and DiMichele Blood 2012). Recombinant factor VIII Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc) is an extended half-life (EHL) FVIII that showed potential benefits for ITI in retrospective clinical data and case reports (Malec et al Haemophilia 2016; Groomes et al Pediatr Blood Cancer 2016; Carcao et al Haemophilia 2021). VerITI-8 (NCT03093480) is the first prospective study of rFVIIIFc in first-time ITI and follows on from the reITIrate (NCT03103542) study of rFVIIIFc for rescue ITI (Königs et al Res Pract Thromb Haemost, ISTH 2021). Aim: Describe outcomes in the verITI-8 study of first-time ITI with rFVIIIFc over 48 weeks in subjects with severe hemophilia A and high-titer inhibitors. Methods: VerITI-8 is a prospective, single-arm, open-label, multicenter study exploring efficacy of rFVIIIFc for first-time ITI in people with severe hemophilia A with high-titer inhibitors. Initial screening was followed by an ITI period in which all subjects received rFVIIIFc 200 IU/kg/day until tolerization or 48 weeks had elapsed (Figure). This was followed by tapered dose reduction to standard prophylaxis and follow-up. Key inclusion criteria included males with severe hemophilia A, high-titer inhibitors (historical peak ≥5 Bethesda units [BU]/mL), and prior treatment with any plasma-derived or recombinant standard half-life or EHL FVIII. Key exclusion criteria included coagulation disorder(s) other than hemophilia A and previous ITI. The primary endpoint was time to tolerization (successful ITI) with rFVIIIFc defined by inhibitor titer &lt;0.6 BU/mL, incremental recovery (IR) ≥66% of expected IR (IR ≥1.32 IU/dL per IU/kg) (both at 2 consecutive visits), and t ½ ≥7 hours (h) within 48 weeks. Secondary endpoints included number of subjects achieving ITI success, annualized bleed rates (ABR), and adverse events (AEs). Results: Sixteen subjects were enrolled and received ≥1 rFVIIIFc dose. Median (range) age at baseline was 2.1 (0.8-16.0) years, and historical peak inhibitor titer was 22.4 (6.2-256.0) BU/mL (Table). Twelve (75%), 11 (69%), and 10 (63%) subjects, respectively, achieved a negative inhibitor titer, an IR &gt;66%, and a t½ ≥7 h (ie, tolerance) within 48 weeks. Median (IQR) times in weeks to achieve these markers of success were 7.4 (2.2-17.8), 6.8 (5.4-22.4), and 11.7 (9.8-26.2) (ie, 2.7 [2.3-6.0] months to tolerance), respectively. One subject achieved partial success (negative inhibitor titer and IR ≥66%), and 5 subjects failed ITI, of which 2 had high inhibitors throughout, 2 experienced an increase in inhibitor levels, and 1 recorded a negative inhibitor titer at 282 days. Most bleeds occurred in the ITI period when median (IQR) ABRs (n=13) were 3.8 (0-10.1) overall, 0 (0-2.6) for spontaneous, 1 (0-4) for traumatic, and 0 (0-3.1) for joint. During tapering, median (IQR) ABRs (n=10) were overall, 0 (0-2.4); spontaneous, 0 (0-0); traumatic, 0 (0-1.3); and joint, 0 (0-0). All 16 subjects experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent AE (TEAE), the most frequent of which was pyrexia in 7 subjects (44%). One subject reported ≥1 related TEAE (injection site pain). Nine subjects (56%) experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent serious AE (TESAE). TESAEs occurring in ≥2 subjects included vascular device infection, contusion, and hemarthrosis. No treatment-related TESAEs, discontinuations due to AEs, or deaths were reported. Conclusions: rFVIIIFc is the first EHL FVIII with prospective data for first-time ITI in patients with severe hemophilia A with historical high-titer inhibitors. Evaluated within a 48-week timeframe, rFVIIIFc offered rapid time to tolerization (median 11.7 weeks; 2.7 months) with durable responses in almost two-thirds of subjects and was well tolerated. Optimizing ITI to eradicate inhibitors remains a priority. Figure 1 Figure 1.

Abstract Introduction: Patients with hemophilia A are at risk for acute bleeding which may affect muscles and other soft tissues but characteristically involves joints. Prophylaxis with factor VIII (FVIII) is the optimal treatment to prevent bleeding into joints and, when begun at a young age, may prevent arthropathy. BAX 8551, a polyethylene glycol (peg)ylated, full-length, recombinant FVIII built on ADVATE2, demonstrated extended half-life, efficacy, and safety for prophylaxis and treatment of bleeding in patients with severe hemophilia A. Methods: A phase 3, prospective, uncontrolled, multicenter study was performed in pediatric patients with severe hemophilia A without history of inhibitors. To be eligible, patients aged <6 years had to have ≥50, those aged 6 to <12 years ≥150 previous exposure days (EDs) to FVIII. Patients received twice weekly infusions of 50 ±10 IU/kg of BAX 855 over a period of 6 months or ≥50 EDs. The prevalence of target joints, defined as a single joint with ≥3 spontaneous bleeding episodes in any consecutive 6-month period, was assessed at baseline. Annualized rates of target joint bleeds and the course of target joints were evaluated by age (<6 and 6 to <12 years). The study was performed in accordance with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki of the World Medical Association. Results:Sixty-six patients were treated with a mean (SD) BAX 855 dose of 51.1 (5.5) IU/kg at a mean (SD) frequency of 1.8 (0.2) infusions/week. Fourteen of 66 patients (21.2%), 3/32 (9.4%) in the younger and 11/34 (32.4%) in the older cohort, had a total of 23 target joints at screening. The number of target joint bleeds decreased during a mean (SD) of 48.5 (7.7; median: 49.0) prophylactic EDs/patient. Five of 66 (7.6%) patients had at least 1 target joint bleed, 1/32 (3.1%) in the younger and 4/34 (11.8%) in the older cohort. The point estimate for the mean (95% CI) annualized rate of target joint bleeds was 0 (0 - infinity; median: 0) compared to an annualized rate of all joint bleeds of 1.1 (0.6 - 1.9; median: 0) and an annualized rate of all bleeds of 3.0 (2.2 - 4.2; median: 2.0) (Table 1). The point estimate for the mean (95% CI) annualized bleeding rate (ABR) in 52 patients without target joints was 2.9 (2.0 - 4.2; median: 2.0) and was similar in 14 patients with target joints at screening at 3.5 (1.9 - 6.6; median: 2.1). In the younger cohort, the ABR was lower in patients with than those without target joints. However, the number of patients <6 years with target joints (N = 3) was too small to draw any conclusions (Table 1). During BAX 855 prophylaxis, no new target joints developed in any patient. Ten of 14 patients had at least 1 target joint revert to a non-target joint. In 8 of these 10 patients, 4 with 1 and 4 with 2 target joints, all target joints resolved. Conclusions:These results suggest that twice weekly infusion of BAX 855 is effective in the prevention of bleeding into target joints and may revert target to non-target joints in pediatric patients with severe hemophilia A. 1BAX 855 (Baxalta US Inc., now part of Shire) is licensed in the US and Japan under the trade name ADYNOVATE. 2ADVATE is a trade mark of Baxalta US Inc., now part of Shire.

Abstract Background: Factor VIII activity (FVIII:C) level is important in the diagnosis and classification of the severity of hemophilia A and can be measured by three methods (one- stage clotting based, two- stage clotting based and chromogenic). About one third of mild / moderate hemophilia A patients show considerable discrepancy in the results of FVIII:C assayed by the above mentioned methods. This group of patients are called "discrepant hemophilia A". Aims: To determine the prevalence of discrepancy in the results of FVIII:C assays by one- stage and chromogenic methods in Iranian patients with non-severe hemophilia A and the importance of this discrepancy in change of classification of disease severity. We also studied the relationship between the bleeding tendency of these patients with the level of FVIII:C for correct prediction of clinical behavior of the disease. Methods: FVIII:C level was measured using one- stage (FVIII:C1) and chromogenic (FVIII:CR) assays in 78 individuals with mild, moderate or carrier for hemophilia A. Exclusion criteria in our study was considered: receiving FVIII concentrate within 10 days before sampling or having normal results with both methods. Discrepancy was defined as a two- fold or greater difference between the results of two assays. aPTT and mixed-aPTT assays were also performed in all cases. The severity of bleeding symptoms was evaluated using three bleeding assessment tools (BATs): ISTH/SSC BAT, Condensed MCMDM-1VWD bleeding questionary and Vicenza bleeding questionary for the diagnosis of type 1 von willebrand disease. Results: In our study the FVIII:C level was normal with both one-stage and chromogenic methods in 5 patients so they were removed from the data. In the remaining 73 cases, assay discrepancy observed in 45 (62%) patients [43 cases with the lower activity in chromogenic assay (standard discrepancy) and two with the lower activity in the one- stage assay (reverse discrepancy)] ( see the Table and Flow-chart below). Classification of hemophilia A severity changed in 25 (34%) patients (20 patients changed from mild to moderate, 4 cases from mild to normal and 1 patient from normal to mild) based on the results of chromogenic assay. FVIII:C was normal in one patient with one- stage assay but chromogenic assay revealed mild deficiency. As a screening test aPTT did not prolong in 13 (17.8%) of our patients. The relation of ISTH bleeding phenotype with the results of FVIII:C assay by both methods were statistically meaningful; but not about "Vicenza bleeding questionary" and "Condensed MCMDM-1VWD" one. Conclusions: Regarding to the high prevalence of assay discrepancy in Iranian patients with non- severe hemophilia A (62%) and changing the classification of the severity of disease in 34% of cases by chromogenic assay, it is recommended that measurement of FVIII:C by both methods should be mandatory in reference coagulation labs in Iran for definitive exclusion of mild hemophilia A, however it is still not clear that which method is completely compatible with the clinical phenotype. Moreover, due to presence of a meaningful relation between ISTH BAT and FVIII:C levels, use of this BAT in hemophilia patients can help to improve the diagnosis accuracy. Figure Figure.

Introduction: Efmoroctocog alfa (Elocta®) is a recombinant coagulation FVIII-Fc (rFVIIIFc), a fully recombinant fusion protein produced in human embryonic kidney cells, with an extended half-life used for the treatment and prevention of bleeding in patients with severe hemophilia A. Using rFVIIIFc for the treatment of severe hemophilia A patients received the approval of reimbursement in Spain at the end of 2016. Therefore, there are no many comparative data published about real life use of rFVIIIFc. Objective: This work aims to describe characteristics of the treatment of severe hemophilia A patients with rFVIIIFc and to compare its results with those previously obtained employing other FVIII products. Methods: This was an open-label non-interventional retrospective study reviewing patient characteristics and treatment outcomes before and after the use of rFVIIIFc. The La Paz University Hospital Ethics Committee approved the experimental protocol. Patients with severe hemophilia A without inhibitors being treated with rFVIIIFc since at least six months before study approval by Ethics Committee were included. The following data were collected for patients included in the study: dose (IU/kg) and prophylaxis treatment regimen, number of spontaneous and traumatic bleedings, annual bleeding rate (ABR) and FVIII trough level. The statistical analysis on the variables listed above comparing before and after rFVIIIFc usage was performed by the Biostatistics Unit of La Paz University Hospital with the statistical package SPSS v.18.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). Results: Twenty two severe hemophilia A patients (median age: 20 years old, ranging from 6 to 63 years) on prophylaxis with rFVIIIFc were considered to be included in this study, but two were excluded due to lack of data. Median follow-up period was 14 months (ranging from 6 to 28 months). Nineteen severe hemophilia A patients have been previously treated with rFVIII (two of them with other extended half-life product) and one with plasma-derived FVIII. Eight of the ten severe hemophilia A patients who presented an ABR greater than 0 with previous treatments reduced their ABR when treated with rFVIIIFc (Table 1). Among those patients with an ABR=0 with previously used FVIII products, only one increased to an ABR=1 when treated with Elocta® due to a traumatic bleeding. Table 1 shows ABR across all patients before and after rFVIIIFc. There was no difference in dose per injection between other FVIII products and rFVIIIFc (median dose for patients treated with other FVIII products: 46.0 IU/kg, ranging from 26 to 65 IU/kg; median dose for patients treated with rFVIIIFc: 46.5 IU/kg, ranging from 26 to 65 IU/kg). Nevertheless, a reduction was observed in administration frequency. Among the twelve patients who received treatment with other FVIII products every 48 hours, eleven came to receive rFVIIIFc 3 times a week and the one previously receiving a plasma-derived FVIII, to twice a week. Five of the patients receiving treatment 3 times a week reduced its frequency to twice per week. Three patients maintained the same schedule of administration. To note, one of the two patients receiving another prolonged half-life product maintained the schedule of treatment and the other reduced its frequency from every 48 hours to 3 times a week. FVIII trough level in plasma (% of FVIII), expressed as median (25th-75th percentile), was 1.1 (0.1-4.0) for rFVIIIFc treatment and 0.2 (0.0-1.9) for other FVIII products (p=0.06). Conclusions: 85% of the severe hemophilia A patients from our cohort reduced the weekly dose administration after beginning treatment with rFVIIIFc. Most of the patients increased plasma trough level of FVIII with rFVIIIFc. 45% of patients reduced and 40% kept their ABR=0 when they changed rFVIIIFc. These data suggest that treatment with rFVIIIFc gives a higher protection to severe hemophilia A patients. However, further research with larger sample size is required to investigate this.

Introduction The use of factor VIII (FVIII) replacement products enables comprehensive management (prophylaxis, acute bleed control, and perioperative hemostasis) of patients with severe hemophilia A. Prophylaxis with standard half-life FVIII replacement therapies requires frequent administration, and low FVIII activity levels between infusions lead to an increased risk of bleeds. FVIII replacement products that achieve optimal bleed protection with once-weekly dosing intervals remain an unmet need for people living with severe hemophilia A. BIVV001 (rFVIIIFc-VWF-XTEN) is a novel FVIII therapy composed of single-chain FVIII, the Fc domain of human immunoglobulin G1, the FVIII-binding D′D3 domain of von Willebrand factor (VWF), and 2 XTEN polypeptides. BIVV001 is designed to be a next-generation FVIII therapy that circulates independently of endogenous VWF, thereby breaking the VWF-imposed half-life ceiling. Single-dose BIVV001 was well tolerated and provided sustained FVIII activity in a first-in-human trial (Konkle et al, Blood, 2018). Here, we report final data for an open-label Phase 1 trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of repeat dosing with BIVV001 in subjects with severe hemophilia A (&lt;1 IU/dL [&lt;1%] endogenous FVIII) (EudraCT No: 2018-001535-51). Methods Eligible subjects were 18-65 years of age, had severe hemophilia A, and ≥150 exposure days to prior FVIII products. After screening and washout, subjects received 4 once-weekly doses of BIVV001 (Days 1, 8, 15, and 22) at either 50 IU/kg (Cohort 1) or 65 IU/kg (Cohort 2). The safety observation period extended for 28 days after the last dose of BIVV001. Primary endpoints were the occurrence of adverse events and clinically significant abnormalities in laboratory tests, including inhibitor development. Secondary endpoints were PK parameters derived from FVIII activity evaluated using a one-stage activated partial thromboplastin time clotting assay. PK blood samples were collected immediately before BIVV001 infusion on Days 1, 8, 15, and 22 and at multiple times after dosing on Days 1 and 22. Results All subjects enrolled in Cohort 1 (n=10) and Cohort 2 (n=14) completed the study. Mean (range) age of subjects was 35 (25-55) years for Cohort 1 and 41 (24-58) years for Cohort 2. BIVV001 was well tolerated. No inhibitor development to FVIII was detected, and there were no events of hypersensitivity or anaphylaxis reported. Baseline-corrected PK data were available for 9 subjects in Cohort 1 and all subjects in Cohort 2. Consistent with the single-dose study, the geometric mean (range) half-life for 50 IU/kg and 65 IU/kg BIVV001 was 41.3 (34.2-50.1) hours and 37.3 (28.9-43.8) hours, respectively. After 4 weekly doses of BIVV001 (Day 22), geometric mean (range) area under the activity-time curve from hour 0 over the dosing interval (AUC0-tau) and maximum concentration at steady state (Cmaxss) of BIVV001 were 8290 (5810-10,300) hr × IU/dL and 131 (96-191) IU/dL for Cohort 1 and 11,200 (7040-15,800) hr × IU/dL and 171 (118-211) IU/dL for Cohort 2, respectively. Mean (standard deviation) FVIII activity immediately prior to the final dose of BIVV001 (Ctrough) was 9.9 (2.8) IU/dL in Cohort 1 and 11.7 (5.5) IU/dL in Cohort 2. The mean (range) Day 22-Day 1 accumulation index was 1.07 (1.03-1.11) for Cohort 1 and 1.05 (1.02-1.08) for Cohort 2. At 5 and 7 days after the final BIVV001 infusion, mean steady-state FVIII activity was 22% and 10% for Cohort 1 and 27% and 12% for Cohort 2, respectively (Figure). Geometric mean (range) incremental recovery after the first dose of BIVV001 was 2.3 (1.6-2.8) IU/dL per IU/kg for Cohort 1 and 2.4 (1.6-3.3) IU/dL per IU/kg for Cohort 2. Conclusions Four weekly infusions of 50 IU/kg or 65 IU/kg BIVV001 were well tolerated with no identified safety concerns. FVIII activity levels were sustained and nonaccumulating between doses. By breaking through the VWF-imposed half-life ceiling, BIVV001 prophylaxis may lead to more optimal, extended protection against bleeds for patients with severe hemophilia A than standard FVIII therapies. These results support the continued development of BIVV001 in a Phase 3 clinical trial program.

Abstract Introduction: The standard of care for patients with severe hemophilia A is prophylactic factor VIII (FVIII) replacement. Conventional recombinant FVIII products are efficacious but require frequent administration because of their short half-life, which reflects the dependence of FVIII on von Willebrand factor (VWF). Recombinant FVIII Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc) provides an extended dosing interval, as well as joint protection and improved quality of life (Oldenburg et al, Haemophilia, 2018; Wang et al, Blood, 2016), with a well-characterized safety profile. While rFVIIIFc reduces the required administration frequency, longer prophylactic dosing intervals that also offer maximum overall protection are still an unmet need for patients with severe hemophilia A. Increasing the half-life of rFVIII is ultimately dependent upon decoupling FVIII and endogenous VWF. BIVV001 (rFVIII-VWF-XTEN) is a novel investigational rFVIII therapy with single-chain FVIII, the Fc domain of human immunoglobulin G1, 2 XTEN polypeptides, and the FVIII-binding D′D3 domain of VWF, designed to circulate in plasma independently of VWF, thereby breaking the VWF half-life ceiling. Here, we present the low-dose cohort results of EXTEN-A, a Phase 1/2a study assessing the safety and tolerability of a single dose of BIVV001, and the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of a single dose of BIVV001 compared with rFVIII. Methods: EXTEN-A (NCT03205163) is an open-label, dose-escalation, multicenter study. Previously treated adult males with severe hemophilia A (<1 IU/dL [<1%] endogenous FVIII activity) with ≥150 exposure days to FVIII products were included. Patients were assigned to either the low-dose cohort (25 IU/kg of rFVIII and 25 IU/kg of BIVV001; n≥6) or the high-dose cohort (65 IU/kg of rFVIII and 65 IU/kg of BIVV001; n≥8). Escalation from the low-dose cohort, and enrolment of patients to the high-dose cohort was undertaken after assessment of available data from the low-dose cohort. After a screening and washout period of up to 28 days, patients received a single dose (25 or 65 IU/kg) of rFVIII. After a 3- to 4-day washout period, patients received a single dose of BIVV001 at the same dose level as rFVIII. Blood samples for PK analysis were collected for 3 days after dosing of rFVIII and up to 14 days after dosing of BIVV001. Inhibitor testing was performed 14 and 28 days following BIVV001 administration. Adverse events, clinical abnormalities in laboratory tests (including inhibitor development), and PK parameters were assessed. An interim analysis is planned, including the first 2 patients of the high-dose cohort. Results: Out of 7 patients enrolled in the low-dose cohort (25 IU/kg), 6 patients were dosed with BIVV001. Patients in this group were primarily white, with 1 patient of Asian descent, and 1 of Hispanic/Latino ethnicity. Patient ages ranged from 19 to 60 years. Low-dose BIVV001 was well tolerated and no inhibitors were detected through 28 days after BIVV001 dosing. Low-dose BIVV001 demonstrated an extended half-life of 37.6 hours, compared with a 12.1-hour half-life for rFVIII. Average FVIII activity post-infusion of BIVV001 was 12.2% at 5 days and 5.3% at 7 days. At least 8 patients will be enrolled in the high-dose cohort (65 IU/kg); preliminary data for the first 2 patients will be reported. Conclusions: BIVV001 was well tolerated in 6 patients with severe hemophilia A who were treated with a single low dose (25 IU/kg). No patient developed an inhibitor to FVIII. Low-dose cohort data demonstrated a breakthrough in the half-life of rFVIII therapy, with BIVV001 providing sustained FVIII levels that could potentially allow for more optimal, extended protection for patients.

Introduction: The safety and efficacy of rurioctocog alfa pegol (BAX 855, SHP-660, TAK-660; Adynovate®; Baxalta US Inc., a Takeda company, Lexington, MA, USA) in patients with severe hemophilia A has been reported previously (Konkle BA et al., Blood 2015, 126:1078-85; Brand B et al., Haemophilia 2016, 22:e251-8; Mullins ES et al., Haemophilia 2017, 23:238-46); however, research describing patient experience with extended half-life (EHL) recombinant factor VIII (FVIII) products outside clinical trials is limited. The objective of this study was to assess real-world utilization of TAK-660 in patients with hemophilia A and describe their clinical profiles before and after switching to TAK-660. Factor consumption and bleed outcomes stratified by age (<18 and ≥18 years) are reported herein. Methods: This was a retrospective, observational database study of patient data from US specialty pharmacies. Pharmacy data sources included patient records, prescriptions, and patient-reported bleed logs. Informed consent was obtained for all analyzed patient data. Eligible patients with hemophilia A were treated with prophylactic TAK-660 with on-label dosing from November 2015 to September 2018, and had received ≥90 days of FVIII (standard half-life [SHL] or EHL) therapy before switching to TAK-660. Main exclusion criteria were participation in a TAK-660 clinical trial before/during this study, only on-demand treatment before switching to TAK-660, or presence of active FVIII inhibitor requiring treatment and/or use of immune tolerance induction during the study period. Assessments included prior hemophilia therapy, FVIII administration frequency and consumption, and annualized bleeding rate (ABR) before and after switching to TAK-660. Results: Data was collected from 82 patients (of 61 providers in 44 practices across 25 states in the United States): 44% of the patients (36/82) were <18 years old; 56% (46/82) were ≥18 years old (none were ≥60 years old); 83% (68/82) had severe hemophilia A; and 88% (72/82) had received prior SHL-FVIII treatment. The SHL antihemophilic factor (recombinant) (Advate®; Baxalta US Inc., a Takeda company, Lexington, MA, USA) was used by 67% (55/82) of patients overall, of whom 47% (26/55) were <18 years old and 53% (29/55) were ≥18 years old. Compared with any prior FVIII therapy, switching to TAK-660 increased FVIII dose per administration in patients <18 and ≥18 years old (+39.5% and +22.9%, respectively), while their weekly administration frequency decreased (-21.4% and -28.1%, respectively; Table 1). Weekly FVIII consumption increased in patients aged <18 years (+11.2%) and decreased in those aged ≥18 years (-12.8%). FVIII administration frequency and consumption by prior SHL- or EHL-FVIII are reported in Table 1. ABR data before and after switching were available in 47 of 82 patients. Compared with any prior FVIII therapy, mean ABR decreased in patients aged <18 years (-39.5%; 2.8 to 1.7) and ≥18 years (-50.3%; 3.4 to 1.7) with TAK-660 treatment (Table 2). Changes in mean ABR by prior FVIII therapy and disease severity are reported in Table 2. The small number of patients who received prior EHL FVIII was a limiting factor in the comparison of patients who received prior SHL- and EHL-FVIII therapy. Conclusions: In patients with hemophilia A previously treated with SHL- or EHL-FVIII products, switching to TAK-660 prophylaxis resulted in a significant decrease in ABR of 40-50% in both age groups analyzed. The adult population (ie, ≥18 years old) showed a tendency for reduced weekly FVIII consumption. These findings from real-world data are in agreement with TAK-660 clinical trial results. The observed differences in FVIII consumption between patients <18 and ≥18 years old may have been in part a result of age-related changes in bleeding patters, growth, and other factors.

Inhibitor Development

Introduction: With many standard half-life (SHL) and extended half-life (EHL) recombinant factor VIII and factor IX products licensed in the US over the last 6 years, it is likely that previously treated patients (PTPs) will consider switching to a new EHL FVIII or FIX product. Although past product switching surveillance suggests no increased inhibitor development risk, there is the need for a real-world data on the incidence of inhibitor development following switching from SHL to EHL rFVIII or rFIX in PTPs with hemophilia A and B. Methods: A longitudinal, observational study of participants with Hemophilia A or B who switched to a rFVIII or rFIX concentrate licensed after Jan 1, 2013. The study included retrospective (switched within 50 exposure days (EDs) and prospective arms. Participants were recruited from ATHN-affiliated Hemophilia Treatment Centers (HTCs). The primary outcome measure was the development of a new inhibitor (i.e. neutralizing antibodies to factor VIII or IX) a 1 year or during the 50 EDs following the product switch. Plasma samples were collected at baseline, 10 EDs and 50 EDs. Inclusion criteria include moderate or severe hemophilia A/B currently on a plasma-derived or recombinant FVIII or FIX concentrate with planned or recent switch to an EHL FVIII or FIX concentrate approved after Jan 1, 2013. Participants with an active inhibitor at time of enrollment or undergoing ITI or switched to a non-factor product were excluded. Results: 303 hemophilia participants from 27 treatment centers were enrolled from 2015 to June 2019. The median age at enrollment was 17 years (IQR 10-32 years). 300 of 303 participants were male, Caucasian (72.6%) and had private insurance (44.9%). 74.3% were FVIII deficient and 25.7% were FIX deficient. Most had severe hemophilia A or B, 82.3% (n=237) and 12.8% (n=37) had a prior history of inhibitor but were negative at the time of enrollment. Prior to the switching, 92.1% (n=197) and 7.9% (n=17) of hemophilia A participants took standard rFVIII or pdFVIII respectively, while 87.8% (n=65) and 12.2% (n=9) of hemophilia B participants took standard rFIX or pdFIX, respectively. The three most frequent switching reasons were extended half-life consideration (n=192; 66.7%), a desire for a longer acting version (n=55; 19.1%) and less than expected clinical response to the current product (n=15; 5.2%). Among 214 participants with hemophilia A, 182 (85.0%) switched to FVIII EHL products while 23 (10.7%) switched to new SHL FVIII. For nine patients (4.2%) switching product information was not available. 72 out of 74 (97.3%) participants with hemophilia B that switched products, switched to an EHL rFIX. Eleven hemophilia participants (six A and five B) entered a second cycle of switching after the completion of the first switching cycle. Following that, four switched to FVIII EHL products, two to new SHL rFVIII and five to rFIX EHL products. A total of 193 (63.7%; 148 FVIII, 45 FIX) participants completed the clinical trial while 36 (11.9%; 26 FVIII, 10 FIX) did not complete the trial and 74 (24.4%) are ongoing in the trial. None of 303 (0%) enrolled participants developed an inhibitor, the primary outcome for this study, through data updated 6/2019. Variability was noted in per-site enrollment. The median enrollment per Hemophilia Treatment Center (HTC) was 10, the IQR was 7-16 with a range of 1-31. The types of factors associated with patients switches are summarized in the figure. Conclusion: No new inhibitors were noted among 303 moderate/severe hemophilia A/B PTPs without active inhibitors at entry, who switched factor VIII or IX products over 50 exposure days or 12 months. This result provides real-world evidence of the rarity of inhibitor development after a product switch in PTPs. The study also achieved a key logistical objective: to demonstrate feasibility of a prospective observational study across ATHN sites.
