The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effect on FIX antigen and activity levels of ascending doses of SB-FIX. SB-FIX is an intravenously delivered Zinc Finger Nuclease (ZFN) Therapeutic for genome editing. It inserts a correct copy of the Factor 9 gene into the albumin locus in hepatocytes with the goal of lifelong therapeutic production of the Factor IX clotting factor.
Hemophilia is a bleeding disorder (deficiency of a blood clotting factor/ protein) resulting in bleeding in joints and muscles. As patients continue to bleed into their joints they develop progressive joint damage leading to joint contractures, disability and days missed from work and school resulting in chronic debilitating pain and compromised quality of life. Current therapy is the administration of the missing protein or factor concentrate on a scheduled basis to prevent bleeding into the joints referred to as prophylaxis. This factor concentrate is expensive ~ $ 3,000 - 6,000 per infusion/ week in a child weighing 20 kg translating into $ 77,000 /yr for life. This regimen has been shown to be effective to prevent joint bleeds but the timing is unclear and not based on adequate evidence. Currently joint damage is diagnosed using MRI which is expensive and requires sedation in children < 6 yrs of age. Therefore there is a need for a user friendly tool such as a ultrasound to monitor for the development of joint disease and tailor treatment based on an individual child's needs. This would also enable differentiating a joint bleed from a soft tissue bleed which present similarly and duration of treatment tends to be longer for a joint bleed. Acharya et al have previously shown that ultrasound is comparable to MRI for the diagnosis of hemophilic joint disease in hemophilia patients over the age of 6 years. However, the diagnostic findings in children < 18 years with hemophilia on ultrasound is not well defined(1). The hemophilic synovium after repeated joint bleeds reveals the development of new vessels which are fragile and contribute to recurrent joint bleeds. Acharya et al have previously shown that angiogenesis, a process of new vessel formation is active in hemophilic synovium and angiogenic markers were significantly elevated in hemophilic patients with joint disease when compared to those without (2). Since ultrasound can detect these new vessel changes in the hemophilic synovium in hemophilia patients with joint disease and hemophilia patients with joint disease demonstrate elevated markers of new vessel formation these investigators would now like to determine whether radiological findings of hemophilic joint disease correlate with serological angiogenic markers. This may enable the development of biomarkers for hemophilic joint disease. Findings from this study will enable the development of ultrasound as a user friendly tool in the hemophilia clinic in order to understand whether every pain and swelling in a joint is actually a joint bleed or soft tissue bleed and to monitor for joint changes to institute or augment scheduled factor infusions ( prophylaxis). This will also result in significant improvement in quality of life with tailored prophylaxis .
A Phase 1/2, open-label, dose-finding safety study of single ascending doses of DTX101 in adult males with moderate/severe to severe hemophilia B.
Investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of BAY1093884 after Intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous (SC) administration of increasing single doses and SC administration of multiple doses.
This study is conducted in the United States of America (USA). Tha aim of this study is bridging Hemophilia B Experiences, Results and Opportunities into Solutions (B-HERO-S).
Primary Objective: To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of fitusiran in male patients with moderate or severe hemophilia A or B Secondary Objectives: - To investigate the long-term efficacy of fitusiran - To characterize the safety and efficacy of concomitantly administered Factor VIII (FVIII), Factor IX (FIX) or bypassing agents (BPA) and fitusiran for treatment of bleeding episodes - To assess changes in health-related quality of life (QOL) over time - To characterize antithrombin (AT) reduction and thrombin generation (TG) increase - To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of fitusiran
This study is conducted globally. This study describes pharmacogenetic testing of saliva samples from patients who participated in the NN1731-3562 trial (adept™2) (NCT01392547). The objective is to determine the HLA (human leukocyte antigen) type and polymorphisms in the FVII gene in patients previously exposed to rFVIIa analogue.
This study will examine two groups of subjects with factor IX (FIX) deficiency: 1) those with a current or history of inhibitors to FIX, and; 2) groups of two or more affected brothers, with or without inhibitors. The overall goal is to characterize the study groups in terms of their medical history, their patterns of bleeding, their care, quality of life, and complications including the development of joint disease, inhibitory antibodies to FIX, use of immune tolerance induction (ITI) and outcome.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and safety of rVIIa-FP (CSL689). The study will enroll approximately 54 male subjects, 12 to 65 years of age, with hemophilia types A or B who have developed inhibitors to FVIII or FIX. The study consists of 3 sequential parts (Parts 1, 2, 3): The purpose of Part 1 (PK part) is to evaluate the PK of a single treatment of CSL689 (low dose or high dose) and compare with the PK of a single treatment of Eptacog alfa (low dose or high dose). In Part 1, CSL689 and Eptacog alfa will be given by the doctor at the study center. The purpose of Part 2 (Dose-evaluation part) is to identify which of the 2 tested dose levels of CSL689 shows the best efficacy and safety in stopping acute bleeding events (this dose will be called the "population best dose"). The purpose of the final Part 3 (Repeated-dose part) is to confirm the efficacy and safety of the "population best dose" identified in Part 2. In Parts 2 and 3, subjects will self-administer a specified number of CSL689 infusions at home on-demand (ie, when a bleeding event occurs), will keep an electronic diary, and will visit the center at monthly intervals. This study is expected to last for up to 16 months for the subjects participating in all 3 parts, and up to 9 months for the subjects participating in Part 3 only.
