Conditions

Hemophilia B

Brief summary

A multicenter, open, non-randomized, phase I/II, two-phase clinical study. The dose exploration phase was phase I, and the dose extension phase was phase II.

Detailed description

Hemophilia B is a genetic bleeding disorder caused by pathogenic variants (eg, mutations, deletion) in the FIX gene. HB patients have frequent and potentially life-threatening bleeding and often develop progressive physical disability and pain from chronic haemarthropathy. Current replacement therapy needs regular treatment in the life-long time, bringing heavy economic and social burdens. VGB-R04 is a novel AAV vector carrying a high specific activity factor IX variant. This study is intended to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a single IV infusion of VGB-R04. All subjects in this study will provide informed consent and then undergo screening assessments up to 6 weeks before administration of VGB-R04. All subjects will undergo 52 weeks of safety observation and will be encouraged to enroll in an Long-term follow-up study to evaluate the long-term safety of VGB-R04 for a total of five years.

Encephalopathy; 4. Reduction of serum albumin; 5. Evidence of significant liver fibrosis; 2. Have anti-VGB-R04 neutralizing antibody titers ≥1:5; 3. Evidence of severe infection disease, i.e., human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, syphilis, tuberculosis, etc.; 4. Novel coronavirus infection occurred in the 6 weeks prior to entry into the group 5. Evidence of active hepatitis B virus infection (HBsAg positive) or hepatitis C virus infection (HCV-RNA positive); 6. Evidence of malignant tumours or those with a previous history of malignant tumours; 7. Have a history of chronic infection or other chronic diseases that the Investigator considers to constitute an unacceptable risk; 8.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Incidence of adverse eventsBaseline up to Week 52An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a product; the event will not need to have a causal relationship with the treatment.
Incidence of serious adverse eventsBaseline up to Week 52A serious adverse event (SAE) is any untoward medical occurrence at any dose that resulted in death; life threatening;require inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; result in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; result in congenital anomaly/birth defect
FIX:C Antigen Level at Steady StateBaseline up to Week 52FIX:C activity antigen levels were characterized by post-treatment population mean.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
FIX:C activity levelBaseline up to Week 52FIX:C activity change from baseline during each visit.
Annualized FIX consumption changes from baselineBaseline up to Week 52The annualized use of FIX replacement therapy will be calculated.
Vector- derived FIX antigen levelsBaseline up to Week 52The vector-derived endogenous (not affected by intercurrent FIX product infusions) FIX:C activity antigen levels will be characterized by post-treatment population mean, and its change from baseline during each visit.
Annualized bleeding rate changes from baselineBaseline up to Week 52The annualized numberof bleeding episodes.
