Study of Next-Generation Recombinant Factor IX Variant in Adult Subjects With Hemophilia B

Phase 2b Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Efficacy and Safety of a Subcutaneous Prophylaxis Treatment Regimen of CB2679d, in Adult Subjects With Hemophilia B

Phase 2b, single-center, open-label study designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, efficacy and safety of subcutaneous (SC) prophylaxis treatment regimens with CB2679d in 6 adult, male subjects with severe congenital hemophilia B.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Hemophilia B
• Intervention / Treatment: Biological: Coagulation Factor IX variant; Biological: Coagulation Factor IX variant

Detailed Description

Single-center, open-label Phase 2b study will evaluate the PK, PD, efficacy and safety parameters of SC prophylaxis treatment regimens with CB2679d in adult subjects with hemophilia B. The study will enroll and dose subcutaneously, a total of 6 adult male subjects with severe congenital hemophilia B.

During the Treatment Period, the subject will receive an IV dose of 50 IU/kg followed 35 ± 5 minutes later by a SC dose of 100 IU/kg. Daily SC doses of 100 IU/kg will be administered until Day 28 (28 total SC doses). On Day 1, PK, PD, and safety assessments will be done at pre-IV dose and repeated 35 (± 5) minutes later prior to the SC dose. Subsequent PK, PD and safety assessments will be performed pre-dose on days 2, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28.

During the Washout Period, PK, PD, and safety assessments will be done on Days 29, 30, 31, 32 and 33. Daily FIX activity levels will be measured, unless FIX activity level is known to be < 5%, as measured by local laboratory.

An End of Study visit will occur 30 days (± 2 days) after the last dose of study drug.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Number of Subjects Who Achieved FIX Level ≥12%	Subjects who achieved a FIX activity level ≥12% during the treatment period in the PK Population	Days 7, 14, 21, 28, 29

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
FIX Activity Levels (Actual and Change From Baseline) in All Subjects	FIX Activity Levels measured by percent activity. Baseline was defined as the lowest assessment before the first administration of study drug. Maximum change from baseline was calculated as the maximum of the changes from baseline over all visits during treatment period. FIX activity level below the limit of quantification (BLQ) were set to zero. In case of retest, the average of the different test results were considered for the summary analyses. 1 subject received a higher IV dose than allowed per protocol (150 IU/kg) at Day 1 thus this subject's values at Day 1 (SC Dose), Day 2, & Day 3 were excluded from this analysis & the total number of participants was lowered by 1 at these timepoints. Additionally, mean (standard deviation) for the maximum change from baseline in the FIX activity level (%) during SC dosing was calculated by excluding actual values at Day 1 IV dose, Day 1 SC dose, Day 2 & Day 3 for all 6 subjects.	Screening, Day 1 (IV Pre-dose, SC Dose), Day 2, 3, 7, 14, 21, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, and End of Study. End of Study is the average of each subject's last recorded assessment (between Days 29 to 33).
