A Study of Fitusiran in Severe Hemophilia A and B Patients Previously Receiving Factor or Bypassing Agent Prophylaxis (ATLAS-PPX)
Hemophilia
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Hemophilia
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Males, ≥12 years of age
- Severe hemophilia A or B (as evidenced by a central laboratory measurement at screening or documented medical record evidence of FVIII <1% or FIX level ≤2%)
- A minimum of 2 bleeding episodes requiring BPA treatment within the last 6 months prior to Screening for patients with inhibitory antibodies to factor VIII or factor IX (Cohort A). A minimum of 1 bleeding episode requiring factor treatment within the last 12 months prior to Screening for patients without inhibitory antibodies to factor VIII or factor IX (Cohort B).
- Must meet either the definition of inhibitor or non-inhibitor patient as below:
- Inhibitor:Use of BPAs for prophylaxis and for any bleeding episodes for at least the last 6 months prior to Screening, and meet one of the following Nijmegen-modified Bethesda assay results criteria:
- Inhibitor titer of ≥0.6 BU/mL at Screening, or
- Inhibitor titer of <0.6 BU/mL at Screening with medical record evidence of 2 consecutive titers ≥0.6 BU/mL, or
- Inhibitor titer of <0.6 BU/mL at Screening with medical record evidence of anamnestic response
The subgroup of patients in Cohort A patients must additionally meet the following criteria to be eligible to start treatment with fitusiran directly after the screening period:
- Hemophilia B with inhibitory antibody to Factor IX as defined above
- Not responding adequately to BPA treatment (historical ABR ≥20) prior to enrollment
- In the opinion of the Investigator, with approval of Sponsor Medical Monitor, 6-month BPA prophylaxis period should be omitted.
- Non-inhibitor:Use of factor concentrates for prophylaxis and for any bleeding episodes for at least the last 6 months prior to Screening, and meet each of the following criterion:
- Nijmegen-modified Bethesda assay inhibitor titer of <0.6 BU/mL at Screening and
- No use of bypassing agents to treat bleeding episodes for at least the last 6 months prior to Screening and
- No history of immune tolerance induction therapy within the past 3 years prior to Screening.
- Documented prophylactic treatment with factor concentrates or bypassing agents for the treatment of hemophilia A or B for at least 6 months prior to Screening
- Adherent to the prescribed prophylactic therapy for at least 6 months prior to Screening per Investigator assessment
- Willing and able to comply with the study requirements and to provide written informed consent and assent
Exclusion Criteria:
- Known co-existing bleeding disorders other than hemophilia A or B
- AT activity <60% at Screening
- Co-existing thrombophilic disorder
- Clinically significant liver disease
- Active Hepatitis C virus infection
- Acute or chronic Hepatitis B virus infection
- HIV positive with a CD4 count of <200 cells/μL
- History of arterial or venous thromboembolism
- Inadequate renal function
- History of multiple drug allergies or history of allergic reaction to an oligonucleotide or N-Acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc)
- History of intolerance to SC injection(s)
- Any other conditions or comorbidities that would make the patient unsuitable for enrollment or could interfere with participation in or completion of the study, per Investigator judgment

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Fitusiran
Cohort A [inhibitor]: participants with severe hemophilia A/B and inhibitory antibodies to coagulation factor VIII (FVIII)/factor IX (FIX) previously received BPA prophylaxis. Cohort B [non-inhibitor]: participants with severe hemophilia A/B without inhibitory antibodies to FVIII/FIX previously received factor prophylaxis. Participants from both cohorts was enrolled into 6-month factor/BPA prophylaxis period and continued their pre-study, regularly scheduled prophylaxis regimen with factor/BPAs. This period could be skipped by subgroup of Cohort A (hemophilia B with inhibitors to FIX and historical annualized bleeding rate [ABR] >=20) that started directly with fitusiran. Post completing factor/BPA prophylaxis period, participants entered 7-month fitusiran treatment period (1-month onset+6-month efficacy) followed by AT follow-up/roll-over into LTE15174 (NCT03754790). Throughout study, participants could receive on-demand treatment for breakthrough BE with factor/BPAs, as appropriate.
