    AIM: To determine the immunogenicity, safety, and efficacy of rurioctocog alfa pegol in previously untreated patients (PUPs) with severe hemophilia A (HA).

    METHODS: This prospective, phase 3 study (NCT02615691) was conducted in PUPs, or patients with ≤2 exposure days (EDs) prior to screening, aged <6 years with severe HA. The primary endpoint was incidence of factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor development. This protocol-specified interim analysis was conducted after 50 patients had completed ≥50 EDs without developing FVIII inhibitors or had developed a confirmed inhibitor at any time.

    RESULTS: Of the enrolled patients, 59/80 (73.8%) received ≥1 dose of rurioctocog alfa pegol; 54 received prophylaxis, and 35 on-demand treatment. Incidence of inhibitor development was 0.19 (10/52). Total annualized bleeding rate (95% CIs) was 3.2 (2.0-5.0) for patients receiving prophylaxis and 3.2 (1.6-6.3) for on-demand treatment. Hemostatic efficacy of most bleedings was rated as 'excellent' or 'good' after 24 hours (122/131 [93.1%]) and at resolution (161/170 [94.7%]). Five patients received ≥1 dose of rurioctocog alfa pegol for immune tolerance induction (ITI) and 1 patient was defined as having ITI success. Thirteen patients experienced 14 treatment-related adverse events, including 10 cases of FVIII inhibitor development.

    CONCLUSION: This is the first prospective study of rurioctocog alfa pegol for the treatment of PUPs with severe HA.

    TRIAL REGISTRATION: This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (CT.gov identifier: NCT02615691).

    Fitusiran, a subcutaneous investigational small interfering RNA therapeutic, targets antithrombin to rebalance hemostasis in people with hemophilia A or B (PwHA/B), irrespective of inhibitor status. This phase 3, open-label study evaluated the efficacy and safety of fitusiran prophylaxis in males aged ≥12 years with hemophilia A or B, with or without inhibitors, who received prior bypassing agent (BPA)/clotting factor concentrate (CFC) prophylaxis. Participants continued their prior BPA/CFC prophylaxis for 6 months before switching to once-monthly 80 mg fitusiran prophylaxis for 7 months (onset and efficacy periods). Primary end point was annualized bleeding rate (ABR) in the BPA/CFC prophylaxis and fitusiran efficacy period. Secondary end points included spontaneous ABR (AsBR) and joint ABR (AjBR). Safety and tolerability were assessed. Of 80 enrolled participants, 65 (inhibitor, n = 19; noninhibitor, n = 46) were eligible for ABR analyses. Observed median ABRs were 6.5 (interquartile range [IQR], 2.2-19.6)/4.4 (IQR, 2.2-8.7) with BPA/CFC prophylaxis vs 0.0 (IQR, 0.0-0.0)/0.0 (IQR, 0.0-2.7) in the corresponding fitusiran efficacy period. Estimated mean ABRs were substantially reduced with fitusiran by 79.7% (P = .0021) and 46.4% (P = .0598) vs BPA/CFC prophylaxis, respectively. Forty-one participants (63.1%) experienced 0 treated bleeds with fitusiran vs 11 (16.9%) with BPAs/CFCs. Median AsBR and AjBR were both 2.2 with BPA/CFC prophylaxis and 0.0 in the fitusiran efficacy period. Two participants (3.0%) experienced suspected or confirmed thromboembolic events with fitusiran. Once-monthly fitusiran prophylaxis significantly reduced bleeding events vs BPA/CFC prophylaxis in PwHA/B, with or without inhibitors, and reported adverse events were generally consistent with previously identified risks of fitusiran. This trial was registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT03549871.
