    Abstract: Introduction: Emicizumab-a subcutaneously administered, bispecific, humanized, monoclonal antibody-promotes effective hemostasis in people with hemophilia A (PwHA). The primary efficacy and safety of emicizumab were reported previously, but long-term data are limited. Here, data from a wide age-range of PwHA with/without factor (F)VIII inhibitors enrolled in the Phase III HAVEN 1 (NCT02622321), HAVEN 2 (NCT02795767), HAVEN 3 (NCT02847637), and HAVEN 4 (NCT03020160) studies are pooled to establish the durable efficacy and safety of emicizumab. Methods: The studies enrolled pediatric and adult PwHA with/without FVIII inhibitors. Participants received emicizumab prophylaxis 1.5 mg/kg weekly, 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks, or 6 mg/kg every 4 weeks. All participants assigned to receive emicizumab (including those assigned to control arms who later switched) are included in this analysis. Participants and/or caregivers recorded outcomes of bleeding events via the Bleed and Medication Questionnaire (BMQ). Data from HAVEN 1-4 were pooled for an aggregate analysis of emicizumab efficacy and safety. Efficacy endpoints include calculated mean annualized bleed rates (ABRs; discrete, consecutive 24-week treatment intervals), model-based ABRs (calculated via negative binomial regression for full study period), percentage of participants with zero and 1-3 treated bleeds, and annualized cumulative dose of coagulation factor (ACD). Safety endpoints include incidence of adverse events (AEs) and AEs of special interest. Results: Overall, 400 PwHA in HAVEN 1, 2, 3 and 4 (n=113, 88, 151, and 48, respectively) are included in the efficacy analysis for a total of 970.3 patient years (cutoff: 15 May 2020). The safety population comprises 399 PwHA who received ≥1 dose of emicizumab (1 PwHA was randomized to receive emicizumab but did not start treatment). The median age at baseline was 28.5 (range 1-77) years. The majority of participants were White (66.8%) or Asian (18.8%); 52.3% had FVIII inhibitors. In the 24 weeks prior to study entry, 60.9% of participants had target joints. The median duration of efficacy period was 120.4 (interquartile range 89.0-164.4) weeks; 85.0% of participants had an efficacy period of ≥74 weeks; 11 participants (2.8%) discontinued study treatment. Across all 4 studies, 90.9-94.8% of the observation period was covered by completed BMQs. Across all studies, the model-based treated bleed ABR was 1.4 (95% confidence interval 1.1-1.7); treated bleed ABRs remained low throughout, and were seen to decrease with successive 24-week treatment intervals (Table 1). During Weeks 121-144 (n=170), 82.4% of participants had zero treated bleeds, and 15.3% of participants had 1-3 treated bleeds. During the same period, 91.8% and 90.0% had zero treated spontaneous/joint bleeds respectively (Figure 1). The proportion of participants with target joints reduced from 60.9% prior to study entry to 4.6% at Weeks 1-24, then & lt;1.5% in all subsequent treatment intervals. ACD of FVIII (Table 2), activated prothrombin complex concentrate (aPCC) and activated recombinant FVII (rFVIIa, Table 3) generally decreased across each 24-week treatment interval. Emicizumab was well tolerated (Table 4), and no participants discontinued due to AEs beyond the five previously described (Oldenburg et al. N Engl J Med 2017; Young et al. Blood 2019; Mahlangu et al. N Engl J Med 2018; Pipe et al. Lancet Haem 2019). At data cut, 1 fatality, 3 thrombotic microangiopathies (TMAs), and 4 thromboembolic events (TEs) have been reported; all but 1 occurred in HAVEN 1. All TMAs and 2 of 4 TEs were associated with concomitant aPCC use. The percentage of participants with ≥1 drug-related AE in Weeks 1-24, 25-48 and 49-72 were 28.8%, 6.8%, and 3.0% respectively; over the same intervals, injection site reactions were observed in 23.3%, 4.8%, and 2.5% of participants. Conclusions: With nearly 3 years of follow-up, emicizumab maintained low bleed rates in PwHA of all ages, with/without FVIII inhibitors. ABRs continued to decrease and the proportion of participants with zero treated bleeds increased with each consecutive 24-week period; the trend was the same for the proportion of participants with zero joint bleeds and almost all target joints resolved. The ACDs of FVIII, aPCC, and rFVIIa decreased with successive treatment intervals. Emicizumab remains well tolerated over long-term follow-up, and no new safety concerns have been identified to date.

    Abstract: In children with severe haemophilia A, inhibitors to factor VIII (FVIII) usually develop during the first 50 treatment exposure days and are classified as low or high titre depending on the peak inhibitor titre being greater or less than 5 Bethesda units/mL (BU/mL). Classification of the inhibitor may change with time, as some low-titre inhibitors progress to high titre following re-exposure to FVIII concentrate. The aim of this study was to investigate potential risk factors for such a progression in children with severe haemophilia A and newly diagnosed inhibitors. This study was a follow-up study of the PedNet Registry and included 260 children with severe haemophilia A and inhibitors born between 1990 and 2009 and recruited consecutively from 31 haemophilia centres. Clinical and laboratory data were collected from the date of each child's first positive inhibitor test for at least 3 years. At the time of first positive inhibitor test, 49% (n = 127) had low-titre inhibitors, with 50% of them progressing to high titre and only 25% maintaining low titres. The FVIII gene (F8) mutation type was known in 247 patients (95%), and included 202 (82%) null mutations. The progression to high-titre inhibitors was associated with null F8 mutations (odds ratio [OR]: 2.6; 95% confidence interval [CI] : 1.0–6.5), family history of inhibitors (OR: 7.2; 95% CI: 1.8–28.4) and the use of high-dose immune tolerance induction, defined as ≥100 IU FVIII concentrate/kg/d (OR: 3.9; 95% CI: 1.5–10.0). These results suggest that high-dose immune tolerance induction should be avoided as the initial strategy in patients who develop low-titre FVIII inhibitors.

    Abstract: Persons with haemophilia A (PwHA) with factor (F)VIII inhibitors, including children, have impaired health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). The HAVEN 2 study (NCT027955767) of paediatric PwHA with FVIII inhibitors demonstrated that subcutaneous emicizumab prophylaxis resulted in low annualizedbleed rates. Aim We assessed the impact of emicizumab prophylaxis on the HRQoL of children and their caregivers participating in HAVEN 2. Methods Children aged 8‐11 years self‐reported HRQoL using the Haemophilia‐Specific Quality of Life Assessment Instrument for Children and Adolescents Short Form (Haemo‐QoL SF II). Caregivers of children aged 0‐11 years completed the Adapted Inhibitor‐Specific Quality of Life Assessment with Aspects of Caregiver Burden. All scores were transformed to a 0‐100 scale, where lower scores reflect a better HRQoL. The number of missed days from school/day care and hospitalizations was also recorded. Results In HAVEN 2 (n = 88), the median age was 6.5 years (range: 1‐15 years); 85 participants were aged  〈  12 years and included in this analysis, and 34 participants were aged 8‐11 years, thereby eligible to complete the Haemo‐QoL SF II questionnaire. The mean (standard deviation, n) baseline Haemo‐QoL SF II ‘Total’ score was 30.2 (14.9, 30), indicating moderate impairment; with emicizumab, mean score decreased by −9.62 (7.73, 17) points to 23.0 (13.93, 20) by Week 49. The most improved domains were ‘Sports & School’ and ‘Physical Health’. Caregivers reported similar improvements. Conclusion Prophylactic emicizumab is accompanied by substantial and sustained improvements in HRQoL of paediatric PwHA with FVIII inhibitors and their caregivers.

    Abstract: Prophylaxis with emicizumab, a subcutaneously administered bispecific humanized monoclonal antibody, promotes effective hemostasis in persons with hemophilia A (PwHAs). The primary efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of emicizumab were reported previously, but long-term data were limited. Here, data from 401 pediatric and adult PwHAs with/without factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitors who were enrolled in the phase 3 HAVEN 1, HAVEN 2, HAVEN 3, and HAVEN 4 studies (NCT02622321, NCT02795767, NCT02847637, NCT03020160) have been pooled to establish a long-term efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics profile. Across a median efficacy period of 120.4 weeks (interquartile range, 89.0-164.4) (data cutoff 15 May 2020), the model-based treated annualized bleed rate (ABR) was 1.4 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1-1.7). ABRs declined and then stabilized at & lt;1 in an analysis of 24-week treatment intervals; at weeks 121 to 144 (n = 170), the mean treated ABR was 0.7 (95% CI, 0-5.0). During weeks 121 to 144, 82.4% of participants had 0 treated bleeds, 97.6% had ≤3 treated bleeds, and 94.1% reported no treated target joint bleeds. Bleeding into target joints decreased substantially. Emicizumab was well tolerated, and no participant discontinued because of adverse events beyond the 5 previously described. This data cutoff includes the previously reported 3 thrombotic microangiopathies (one in the PwHA with fatal rectal hemorrhage) and 2 thromboembolic events, all associated with activated prothrombin complex concentrate use, as well as a myocardial infarction and a venous device occlusion. With 970.3 patient-years of exposure, emicizumab prophylaxis maintained low bleed rates in PwHAs of all ages with/without FVIII inhibitors and remains well tolerated, with no new safety concerns identified.

    Abstract: Simoctocog alfa (Nuwiq®) is a 4th generation recombinant FVIII with proven efficacy for the prevention and treatment of bleeding episodes (BEs) in previously treated patients with severe haemophilia A. The NuProtect study assessed the immunogenicity, efficacy and safety of simoctocog alfa in 108 previously untreated patients (PUPs). The incidence of high‐titre inhibitors was 16.2% and no patients with non‐null F8 mutations developed inhibitors. Aim To report the efficacy and safety results from the NuProtect study. Methods PUPs received simoctocog alfa for prophylaxis, treatment of BEs, or as surgical prophylaxis. The efficacy of prophylaxis (during inhibitor‐free periods) was assessed using annualised bleeding rates (ABRs). The efficacy in treating BEs and in surgical prophylaxis was assessed using a 4‐point scale. Adverse events were recorded throughout the study. Results Of 108 PUPs treated with simoctocog alfa, 103 received at least one prophylactic dose and 50 received continuous prophylaxis for at least 24 weeks. In patients on continuous prophylaxis, the median ABR was 0 (mean 0.5) for spontaneous BEs and 2.5 (mean 3.6) for all BEs. In 85 patients who had BEs, efficacy of BE treatment was excellent or good for 92.9% (747/804) of rated BEs; 92.3% of BEs were treated with 1 or 2 infusions. The efficacy of surgical prophylaxis was excellent or good for 94.7% (18/19) of rated procedures. There were no safety concerns and no thromboembolic events. Conclusion Simoctocog alfa was efficacious and well tolerated as prophylaxis, surgical prophylaxis and for the treatment of BEs in PUPs with severe haemophilia A.

    Abstract: Hemophilia B is a bleeding disorder caused by a deficiency of coagulation factor IX (FIX). Treatment with FIX replacement products can increase FIX activity levels to minimize or prevent bleeding events. However, frequent dosing with standard-acting FIX products can create a high treatment burden. Long-acting products have been developed to maintain bleed protection with extended dosing intervals. Recombinant factor IX–albumin fusion protein (rIX-FP) is a long-acting product indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis of bleeding events and perioperative management in adult and pediatric patients. This review outlines data from all previously treated patients in the Prophylaxis and On-Demand Treatment using Longer Half-Life rIX-FP (PROLONG-9FP) clinical trial program and summarizes real-world data evaluating the use of rIX-FP in routine clinical practice. In the PROLONG-9FP program, rIX-FP demonstrated effective hemostasis in all patients at dose regimens of up to 21 days in patients aged ≥ 18 years and up to 14 days in patients aged 〈 12 years. rIX-FP has a favorable pharmacokinetic profile and an excellent safety and tolerability profile. Extended dosing intervals with rIX-FP led to high levels of adherence and reduced consumption compared with other FIX therapies. Data from real-world practice are encouraging and reflect the results of the clinical trials.

    Abstract: Introduction Emicizumab - a bispecific humanized monoclonal antibody given subcutaneously - bridges FIXa and FX to restore the function of missing FVIIIa. It is approved for routine prophylaxis in people with hemophilia A (PwHA) with inhibitors of all ages. Previous data from the HAVEN 2 study of emicizumab in pediatric PwHA with inhibitors 〈 12 years (data cut-off May 8, 2017) showed once-weekly (QW) dosing provided effective bleed control and was well tolerated (Young et al. Blood 2017). We present the primary analysis of the study, including analyses of the bi-weekly (Q2W) and monthly (Q4W) dosing regimens. Methods HAVEN 2 (NCT02795767) enrolled PwHA with inhibitors aged 〈 12 years (or 12-17 years if 〈 40kg) previously treated with episodic or prophylactic bypassing agents (BPAs) to receive emicizumab prophylaxis for ≥52 weeks. A loading dose of 3mg/kg emicizumab was given QW for 4 weeks followed by a maintenance dose of 1.5mg/kg QW, 3mg/kg Q2W or 6mg/kg Q4W (cumulative dose identical for all regimens). Efficacy analyses included annualized bleed rates (ABRs) for all bleed endpoints and an intra-individual comparison with ABR on prior BPAs from a prospective non-interventional study (NIS; NCT02476942). Safety assessments included records of adverse events (AEs), serious AEs (SAEs), AEs of interest and immunogenicity. Pharmacokinetics (PK) across dosing regimens was also analyzed. Results Eighty-eight patients were enrolled (n=68 QW; n=10 Q2W; n=10 Q4W), 18 of whom were aged ≤2 years old. At clinical cut-off (April 30, 2018), the median (range) emicizumab exposure for each cohort was 57.2 (17.1-92.1), 20.1 (18.1-24.1), and 18.1 (8.1-24.1) weeks, respectively; 59 patients in the QW cohort completed 52 weeks on study; 3 patients discontinued due to switching to commercial emicizumab (n=2 QW) or lack of efficacy (n=1 Q4W). In the QW, Q2W, and Q4W cohorts, the ABR in treated patients aged 〈 12 years was 0.3 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.17-0.50), 0.2 (0.03-1.72), and 2.2 (0.69-6.81) for treated bleeds, respectively. Zero treated bleeds were reported in 50/65 (76.9%), 9/10 (90.0%), and 6/10 (60.0%) patients, respectively. Across cohorts, all patients experienced ≤3 treated bleeds (Table 1). Overall, 30 treated bleeds were reported (n=22 QW; n=1 Q2W; n=7 Q4W): 19 occurring in a joint (n=12 QW; n=1 Q2W; n=6 Q4W), 4 in a muscle (n=3 QW; n=1 Q4W), and 7 classified as 'other' (n=7 QW). The majority (25/30; 83.3%) of treated bleeds were traumatic and 5/30 (16.7%) were spontaneous. An intra-individual comparison of 18 patients 〈 12 years old in the QW cohort who had participated in the NIS (15 and 3 on prior prophylactic and episodic BPAs, respectively) showed a 99% (95% CI: 97.7-99.4) reduced risk of treated bleeds with emicizumab compared with prior BPAs (Figure 1). Emicizumab was safe and well tolerated. No thromboembolic or thrombotic microangiopathy events or deaths occurred. The most common AEs are listed in Table 2. Seventeen patients experienced 21 SAEs. Four patients tested positive for anti-drug antibodies (ADA), two of whom had ADA with neutralizing potential based on reduced emicizumab levels; one discontinued emicizumab treatment and the other had no bleeds as of the clinical cut-off date. Mean steady-state trough concentrations of emicizumab were maintained at therapeutic levels across all regimens (Figure 2). Trough plasma concentrations increased with loading doses until Week 5, then were maintained at approximately 50, 45-50 and 38μg/mL with QW, Q2W and Q4W dosing, respectively. As of the data cut-off, 21 minor surgical procedures had been carried out, 14 (66.7%) of which were central venous access device (CVAD) removals. Conclusions To our knowledge, HAVEN 2 is the largest prospective study in pediatric PwHA with inhibitors to date, and demonstrates that emicizumab prophylaxis is well tolerated and can prevent or substantially reduce bleeds in this population. Meaningful efficacy and PK were maintained with less frequent dosing, with no new safety signals, suggesting the potential for reduced treatment burden in the pediatric population. Additionally, the large number of CVAD removals suggests that prophylactic emicizumab may offer a new and effective standard of care for hemophilia that is also more convenient and less invasive, and may offer the potential for flexible treatment regimens based on patient needs.
