RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Recombinant porcine factor VIII (rpFVIII; susoctocog alfa) is predicted to provide functional FVIII activity in patients with congenital haemophilia A with inhibitors (CHAWI). AIMS: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of rpFVIII in patients with CHAWI undergoing invasive procedures. METHODS: This phase 3, multicentre, single-arm, open-label study (NCT02895945) enrolled males aged 12-75 years with severe/moderately severe CHAWI who required surgical/invasive procedures. Patients received a loading dose of rpFVIII 1-2 h before surgery. The primary outcome was the proportion of all procedures with a 'good' or 'excellent' response (treatment success) on the global haemostatic efficacy assessment score. RESULTS: Of the eight dosed patients, five completed the study. Six of seven surgeries (85.7%; 95% confidence interval, 42.1-99.6) achieved treatment success; five were rated 'excellent', one was rated 'good'. Seven surgery-related bleeding episodes occurred in three patients during the study, with none requiring additional surgical intervention. Overall, six of eight patients experienced 17 treatment-emergent adverse events. Three patients developed de novo inhibitors to rpFVIII. Five patients reported anamnestic reactions, three to both human (h) FVIII (i.e., alloantibodies to exogenous FVIII detected with anti-hFVIII assays) and rpFVIII, and two to hFVIII only. Four serious adverse events were considered related to rpFVIII (three anti-rpFVIII antibody positive; one anamnestic reaction to hFVIII and rpFVIII). CONCLUSION: Good haemostasis was achieved with rpFVIII during the immediate perioperative period. The study was terminated early because the study sponsor and health authorities determined that the risk of anamnestic reactions outweighs the benefits in this study population.

INTRODUCTION: Recombinant porcine factor VIII (rpFVIII, susoctocog alfa) is indicated for the treatment of bleeding episodes in adults with acquired haemophilia A (AHA). AIM: To provide long-term real-world safety and effectiveness data for rpFVIII in the management of AHA bleeding episodes. METHODS: US PASS (NCT02610127) was a multicentre, uncontrolled, open-label, post-marketing safety surveillance study conducted in adults with AHA. Data were collected retrospectively or prospectively for 180 days after rpFVIII treatment. The primary outcome was the incidence of treatment-related serious adverse events (SAEs). Secondary outcomes included haemostatic effectiveness of rpFVIII and rpFVIII utilization. RESULTS: Fifty-three patients were enrolled from December 2015 to June 2019 (prospective, n = 30; retrospective, n = 23). Six patients experienced seven treatment-related SAEs (incidence 12.0%). The most common treatment-related SAE was FVIII inhibition (inhibiting antibodies to rpFVIII; incidence 8.0%, 95% CI: 2.2-19.2). Five patients reported seven thromboembolic events; one was an SAE and possibly related to rpFVIII. Of bleeding events treated with rpFVIII, 80.3% (57/71) of bleeds resolved with rpFVIII. The median (range) dose of rpFVIII per infusion was 50 (10-300) units/kg, with a median (range) of 6.0 (1-140) infusions and a median (range) time from bleed onset to bleed resolution of 14.0 (2.0-132.7) days. CONCLUSION: In this real-world study of rpFVIII for AHA, no new safety signals were identified compared with previous clinical trial findings. Eighty percent of bleeds resolved with rpFVIII treatment.

BACKGROUND: Rixubis (recombinant factor IX, nonacog gamma) is indicated for the control and prevention of bleeding episodes, perioperative management, and routine prophylaxis in hemophilia B patients. This real-world, postmarketing surveillance study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Rixubis in adult and pediatric hemophilia B patients in South Korea. METHODS: This prospective, observational, multicenter study (clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT029 22231) was conducted in hemophilia B patients between April 2015 and April 2019, who were observed for up to 6 months after the initiation of Rixubis treatment. Safety was evaluated based on the number and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs). Hemostatic effectiveness was assessed by physicians and patients by using a four-point scale and rated as excellent, good, fair, or no response based on treatment type. RESULTS: In all, 58 patients were enrolled from four centers by seven physicians during the study period. The safety and effectiveness analysis sets included 57 and 54 patients, respectively. Overall, 11 AEs were reported in eight patients (14.0%), of which three were SAEs and occurred in three patients (5.3%). All 11 AEs were reported as unexpected and mild in severity, with no anaphylactic reaction, and 10 AEs (90.9%) resolved. The majority of AEs (10) were unrelated to Rixubis. Of the 142 hemostatic effectiveness assessments, 123 (86.6%) were reported as good or excellent. CONCLUSION: Rixubis demonstrated an acceptable safety and effectiveness profile in the treatment of bleeding, perioperative management, and prophylaxis in hemophilia B patients in a real-world setting in South Korea.
