Phase 1, single-dose escalating study of marzeptacog alfa (activated), a recombinant factor VIIa variant, in patients with severe hemophilia.
Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis : JTH 2018 October
UNLABELLED: Essentials Marzeptacog alfa (activated) [MarzAA] is a novel variant of activated human factor VII. A phase 1 dose escalation trial of MarzAA was conducted in subjects with severe hemophilia. MarzAA was safe and tolerated at intravenous doses up to 30 μg kg-1 Data observed support further trials for hemophilia patients with inhibitors to factors VIII/IX.
SUMMARY: Background Marzeptacog alfa (activated) (MarzAA), a new recombinant activated human factor VII (rFVIIa) variant with four amino acid substitutions, was developed to provide increased procoagulant activity and a longer duration of action in people with hemophilia. Objectives To investigate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of single ascending intravenous bolus doses of MarzAA in non-bleeding patients with congenital hemophilia A or B with or without inhibitors. Methods This international, phase 1, open-label study (NCT01439971) enrolled males aged 18-64 years with severe hemophilia A or B, with or without FVIII or FIX inhibitors. Subjects were assigned to single-dose MarzAA cohorts (0.5, 4.5, 9, 18 or 30 μg kg-1 ). Blood sampling was performed predose and postdose, and subjects were monitored for 60 days postdose. Safety endpoints included adverse events, vital sign changes, electrocardiograms, laboratory abnormalities, and immunogenicity; secondary endpoints included evaluation of PK and PD. Results Overall, in 25 patients, MarzAA was well tolerated at all dose levels tested, and was not associated with dose-limiting toxicity. No treatment-emergent severe or serious adverse events occurred. MarzAA showed linear dose-response PK across the 4.5-30 μg kg-1 dose range, with a terminal half-life of ⁓ 3.5 h. Dose-dependent shortening of the activated partial thromboplastin time and prothrombin time, and evidence of an increase in peak thrombin as determined with a thrombin generation assay, were observed at all doses. Conclusions MarzAA was tolerated at doses up to 30 μg kg-1 . The safety profile and pharmacological effects observed support further clinical trials for the treatment of hemophilic patients with inhibitors.
