Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of Fitusiran (ALN-AT3SC) in Severe Hemophilia A and B Patients Without Inhibitors (NCT NCT03417245)

NCT ID: NCT03417245

Last Updated: 2022-03-28

Results Overview

ABR for a participant during efficacy period (EP) was defined as annualized number of bleeding episodes during EP annualized to a 1-year interval of time. Treated Bleeding episode: any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of by-passing agents (BPA) or factor. It started from first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after last treatment for bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at same location or injections less than or equal to (\<=) 72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. EP was defined as time duration starting from Day 29 when antithrombin (AT) lowering capacity of fitusiran had achieved therapeutic target range to the earliest of Day 246 or last day of bleeding follow up (maximum duration of EP: from Day 29 to Day 246). This outcome measure (OM) presents estimated results (i.e., results received by applying negative binomial \[NB\] regression model on data collected during EP).

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 64 centers in 19 countries. A total of 177 participants were screened between 1 March 2018 to 22 May 2020, of which 57 participants were screen failure. Screen failures were mainly due to presence of a co-existing thrombophilic disorder. In total, 120 participants were enrolled in the study.

120 participants were randomized in 2:1 ratio to fitusiran prophylaxis and on-demand arms by interactive response system; stratified by the number of bleeding episodes in the 6 months prior to Screening (less than or equal to \[\<=10\] versus greater than \[\>\]10) and by hemophilia type (hemophilia A or B).

Haem-A-QoL: participant-reported questionnaire designed for adult participants (\>=17 years of age) with hemophilia; and consisted of 46 items comprising 10 domains (physical health, feelings, view of yourself, sports and leisure, work and school, dealing with hemophilia, treatment, future, family planning, partnership and sexuality). Scoring for each item was based on a 5-point Likert scale (1= never, 2= rarely, 3= sometimes, 4= often, and 5=all the time), and higher scores represented greater impairment. Change from baseline in physical health domain score was reported in this outcome measure. Raw score for physical health domain were transformed to a scale ranged from 0 (better health outcome) to 100 (worst health outcome), where lower scores denoted better physical health.

ABR was annualized number of bleeding episodes during onset period per participant annualized to a 1-year interval of time. A treated bleeding episode was defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of BPA or factor. It started from the first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after the last treatment for the bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at the same location or injections \<=72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. The onset period was defined as time interval from Day 1 to the earlier of Day 28 or the last day of bleeding follow up.

Timeframe: From Baseline (Day 1) up to 15 months (i.e., 9 months treatment period + 6-month follow-up)

Population: Analysis was performed on safety analysis set that included all participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug or were randomized to on-demand arm, analyzed according to the actual treatment received.

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. Treatment-emergent AEs were defined as any AE with onset date after first dose of fitusiran in the fitusiran prophylaxis arm or after Day 1 visit in the factor on-demand arm. A serious AE (SAE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, was a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or was a medically important event.
