A prospective, multicenter, clinical study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of bleed outcomes, with HemoRel-A® in severe hemophilia A patients

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate efficacy for an on-demand treatment of acute bleeding events, pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of HemoRel-A® in severe hemophilia A. Methods: A total of 44 male subjects with severe hemophilia A with an annualized bleed rate of 12 while on-demand treatment with factor VIII (FVIII) were enrolled in the study and received HemoRel-A® for bleed treatment. The efficacy of HemoRel-A® was evaluated based on a four-point scale (excellent, good, moderate, or none). Six-point pharmacokinetic (PK) assessment was performed following a single dose of 50 IU/kg in 12 subjects after a 7-day wash-out period. Safety evaluations were performed at each visit and inhibitor testing was performed in all patients at screening and end of study. Results: Forty-four male subjects received at least a single dose of the study medication and were included in the intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis and safety outcome. In 23 (7.52%) out of the 306 bleeding events, HemoRel-A® efficacy was rated as excellent, in 272 (88.89 %) bleeds it was rated as good, and in 11 (3.68%) bleeding events it was rated as moderate. No failure of efficacy was noted in any of the bleeding events. Thus overall out of 306 bleeding events, 295 (96.41%) showed excellent or good efficacy. Pharmacokinetic assessment based on plasma FVIII activity measured by the chromogenic assay in 12 patients showed comparative results similar to FVIII preparations. A total of 12 adverse events (AEs) were reported in this study. There was no inhibitor development in this previously treated patients (PTP) cohort. Conclusion: HemoRel-A® was established to be efficacious and safe in the treatment of acute bleeding events in subjects with severe hemophilia A.
