E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
- To determine the safety of single ascending intravenous (IV) doses of DTX101 in adults with moderate/severe to severe hemophilia B.
- To establish a dose of DTX101 that achieves a peak plasma level of vector-derived factor IX (FIX) at 6 weeks after IV administration to allow further clinical development. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Secondary:
- To assess the impact of DTX101 on the number of bleeding episodes requiring recombinant FIX infusion during the study.
- To evaluate the kinetics, duration, and magnitude of plasma FIX activity, by dose, after IV
administration of DTX101 in adults with hemophilia B.
- To assess the impact of DTX101 on the frequency of FIX replacement therapy during the study.
- To describe the immune response to the FIX transgene after IV administration of DTX101.
- To assess the impact of DTX101 on the subject’s quality of life.
Exploratory:
- To describe the immune response to AAVrh10 capsid proteins after IV administration of DTX101. |

E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Male ≥18 years of age.
2. Moderate/severe or severe hemophilia B (baseline FIX activity ≤2% of normal or documented history of FIX activity ≤2%).
3. At least 3 bleeding episodes per year that require on-demand treatment with FIX OR are treated with a prophylactic regimen of FIX.
4. At least 100 days exposure history to FIX.
5. No documented history of inhibitors (neutralizing antibodies) to exogenous FIX.
6. No known allergic reaction to exogenous FIX or any component of DTX101.
7. Willing to stop prophylactic treatment with recombinant FIX at specified time points during the study.
8. Willing and able to provide written informed consent.
9. Willing and able to comply with study procedures and requirements.
10. Willing to use effective contraception at the time of administration of DTX101 and for 3 months following administration of DTX101. Appropriate contraceptive methods include a condom with spermicide. Abstinence, defined as sexual inactivity, is an acceptable form of birth control; however, appropriate contraception must be used if the subject becomes sexually active. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. History of liver disease as evidenced by any of the following: portal hypertension, ascites, splenomegaly, esophageal varices, hepatic encephalopathy, or a liver biopsy with evidence of stage 3 fibrosis.
2. Significant hepatic inflammation or cirrhosis as evidenced by any of the following: aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >2.0 × upper limit of normal (ULN), total bilirubin >1.5 × ULN, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) >2.5 × ULN, platelet count <75,000 cells/μL, and prothrombin time (PT) or international normalized ratio (INR) >1.5 × ULN.
3. Evidence of active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, documented by current use of antiviral therapy for HBV or HCV or by hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or HCV RNA positivity. NOTE: Two negative viral assays by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), collected at least 6 months apart, will be required to be considered negative for HCV. Subjects can be rescreened once if they have one negative sample and must wait to have the second sample collected within the following 6 months.
4. History of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection AND any of the following: CD4+ cell count <350 cells/mm3, 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 PCR.
5. Anti-AAVrh10 neutralizing antibody titer >1:5.
6. Participation (current or previous) in another gene therapy study.
7. Participation in another investigational medicine study within 3 months before screening.
8. History of a malignancy for which the subject has received treatment in the past 2 years except for prostate cancer treated with watchful waiting or surgically removed non-melanoma skin cancer.
9. Has any other significant medical condition that the investigator feels would be a risk to the subject or would impede the study. |
