6A Phase 1/2, open-label, dose-finding safety study of single ascending doses of DTX101 in adult males with moderate/severe to severe hemophilia B.
Hemophilia B is an X-linked recessive genetic bleeding disorder caused by mutations in the factor IX (FIX) gene. FIX is produced in the liver and is critical for fibrin clot formation. Hemophilia B is characterized by frequent, spontaneous internal bleeding that can lead to chronic arthropathy (joint damage), intracranial hemorrhage, and even death. In patients with moderate/severe to severe hemophilia B, the majority of bleeding episodes occur in the joints and, if not treated, lead to debilitating damage and a decreased quality of life.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the adeno-associated virus (AAV) to deliver human factor IX (hFIX) gene, the healthy gene necessary to make FIX, to the liver where FIX is normally produced. This study will determine if AAVrh10 can produce clinically meaningful FIX levels in patients with moderately/severe or severe hemophilia B.
This study was previously posted by Dimension Therapeutics, which has been acquired by Ultragenyx in November 2017.

Inclusion Criteria: Male ≥ 18 years of age. Moderate/severe or severe hemophilia B (baseline FIX activity ≤ 2% of normal or documented history of FIX activity ≤2%). At least 3 bleeding episodes per year that require on-demand treatment with FIX OR are treated with a prophylactic regimen of FIX. At least 100 days exposure history to FIX. No documented history of inhibitors (neutralizing antibodies) to exogenous FIX. No known allergic reaction to exogenous FIX or any component of DTX101. Willing to stop prophylactic treatment with recombinant FIX at specified time points during the study. Exclusion Criteria: History of significant liver disease (ie, portal hypertension). Significant hepatic inflammation or cirrhosis. Evidence of active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection AND any of the following: CD4+ cell count < 350 cells/mm^3, change in antiretroviral therapy regimen within 6 months prior to Day 0, or plasma viral load > 200 copies/mL, on 2 separate occasions, as measured by polymerase chain reaction. Anti-AAVrh10 neutralizing antibody titer > 1:5. Participation (current or previous) in another gene therapy study. Participation in another investigational medicine study within 3 months before screening. NOTE: Other protocol defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant enrolled into this study (from the time the participant signed the informed consent form until his or her exit from the study), regardless of its causal relationship to study treatment. A TEAE was defined as any event not present before exposure to study product or any event already present that worsened in severity or increased in frequency after exposure to study product.
Peak plasma level of FIX after IV administration as determined by the activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) clot-based assay. Change from baseline: postbaseline value - baseline value. For the change from baseline, only participants with a value at both baseline visit and the specific postbaseline visit were included.
The number of bleeding episodes per participant was recorded, and the annualized number of bleeding episodes was calculated.
Peak plasma level of FIX after IV administration as determined by the aPTT clot-based assay. Change from baseline: postbaseline value - baseline value. For the change from baseline, only participants with a value at both baseline visit and the specific postbaseline visit were included. Participants were not required to stop prophylactic treatment with recombinant FIX until after Week 4 and may have been restarted on their prophylactic recombinant FIX treatment after Week 14.
The use of on-demand FIX replacement therapy was recorded by dose (IU/kg) administered, and the annualized use of FIX replacement therapy was calculated. Participants were not required to stop prophylactic treatment with recombinant FIX until after Week 4 and may have been restarted on their prophylactic recombinant FIX treatment after Week 14.
The development of neutralizing antibodies to FIX (FIX inhibitors), as determined by a Bethesda assay. A value of < 0.3 inhibitor units was considered to be no neutralizing antibodies.
The development of a cell-mediated immune response to FIX, as determined by enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISPOT).
EQ-5D-5L is a standardized, subject-rated instrument for use as a measure of health outcomes. The EQ 5D-5L includes 2 components: the EQ-5D-5L descriptive system and the EQ visual analogue scale (EQ-VAS). The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system provides a profile of the participant's health state in 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression). For each dimension, the participant is instructed to indicate whether he or she has "no problems" (1), "some problems" (2), or "severe problems" (3).
The Haemophilia-Specific Quality of Life questionnaire asks subjects about their perceptions of their health and treatment. The questionnaire is divided into the following 10 dimensions: physical health, feelings, view of themselves, sports & leisure, work & school, dealing with hemophilia, treatment, future, family planning, and partnership & sexuality. Questions are based on a 5-point Likert-scale (1=never, 2=rarely, 3=sometimes, 4=often, 5=all the time). If the question does not apply to the subject, the "not applicable" response is allowed in 3 of the domains (sport & leisure, work & school, family planning). Positively worded items need to be re-coded and domains will be transformed ranging from 0 to 100; higher domain and total scores indicating a higher impairment of health-related quality of life.
The use of on-demand FIX replacement therapy was recorded by dose (IU/kg) administered and the average weekly use of FIX replacement therapy was calculated. Participants were not required to stop prophylactic treatment with recombinant FIX until after Week 4 and may have been restarted on their prophylactic recombinant FIX treatment after Week 14.
