Nonacog beta pegol prophylaxis in children with hemophilia B: safety, efficacy, and neurodevelopmental outcomes for up to 8 years.


ABSTRACT:

Background

Nonacog beta pegol (N9-GP) is an extended half-life PEGylated factor (F)IX product with established efficacy and short-term safety in persons with hemophilia B (HB). Long-term safety has been evaluated for polyethylene glycol exposure but not N9-GP.

Objectives

To assess safety, neurodevelopmental, and efficacy outcomes of children with HB receiving N9-GP prophylaxis across 2 open-label, single-arm, phase 3 studies: paradigm5 (previously treated patients [PTPs]) and paradigm6 (previously untreated patients [PUPs]) in this interim analysis.

Methods

PTPs (aged ≤12 years) and PUPs (aged <6 years) with severe/moderate (≤2% FIX level) HB were recruited to N9-GP prophylaxis (40 IU/kg once weekly) in paradigm5 and paradigm6, respectively. Safety assessments included FIX inhibitor incidence, adverse events, neurocognitive and neurologic outcomes, polyethylene glycol concentration in plasma, and medical events of special interest. Efficacy endpoints included bleeds, N9-GP hemostatic effect, and FIX consumption.

Results

Overall, 25 patients in paradigm5 and 50 patients in paradigm6 received N9-GP and were followed for up to 8 and 6 years, respectively. No inhibitory antibodies were reported in PTPs; 4 of the 50 PUPs developed inhibitors. Extensive evaluation revealed no neurocognitive or neurologic concerns with N9-GP use in children during the study period. Across both studies, few adverse events were reported as possibly related to N9-GP. High hemostatic response rate, high treatment adherence, low annualized bleeding rates, and no new target joints were reported.

Conclusion

These data provide the longest follow-up for an extended half-life FIX and confirm the long-term efficacy of N9-GP prophylaxis in children with HB with no observed neurocognitive or neurologic safety concerns.
