Clinical trial information

Kids B-LONG was a phase 3 open-label study that investigated the safety and efficacy of ALPROLIX in 30 previously treated pediatric patients with severe hemophilia B. All 30 patients were treated with ALPROLIX on an individualized prophylactic regimen. Fifteen patients were 1 to 5 years of age; 15 patients were 6 to 11 years of age.1

Target joint resolution with ALPROLIX

of adult and adolescent patients in B-YOND achieved target joint resolution4

  • Target joints were resolved in 37/37 patients who had target joints at baseline in B-LONG4
  • In our study, a target joint was defined as a major joint with ≥3 bleeding episodes in a consecutive 3-month period4,5
  • Prior to enrollment in B-LONG, patients were on either an on-demand or prophylactic standard half-life (SHL) treatment regimen4
  • In our study, target joint resolution was defined based on the ISTH subcommittee, which defines target joint resolution as ≤2 spontaneous bleeds in the target joint over 12 months4,5
  • Patients had ≥12 months of consecutive follow-up and did not undergo joint surgery within 12 months of the start of follow-up4,5

Clinical trial information

B-LONG was a phase 3 open-label study that investigated the safety and efficacy of ALPROLIX in 123 previously treated adult and adolescent patients aged ≥12 years with severe hemophilia B. The study included a fixed-interval (weekly) arm (n=63), a fixed-dose (interval-adjusted) arm (n=29), an episodic (on-demand) arm (n=27), and a surgical arm (n=12).1

B-YOND was an extension trial that studied the long-term safety and efficacy of ALPROLIX in 120 adult, adolescent, and pediatric patients previously treated in Kids B-LONG or B-LONG. The study included a fixed-interval arm (n=74), a fixed-dose arm (n=36), a modified prophylaxis arm (n=17), and an episodic (on-demand) arm (n=15).6

Clinical trial information

PUPs B-LONG was a phase 3 open-label study that investigated the safety and efficacy of ALPROLIX in 33 previously untreated patients with moderate or severe hemophilia B (≤2% endogenous factor IX activity). Twenty-eight patients completed the study in the prophylaxis arm and 5 patients completed the study in the on-demand arm. At enrollment, the median age was 0.6 years (range: 0.1-2 years).7

Indication

ALPROLIX is a recombinant DNA derived, coagulation Factor IX concentrate indicated in adults and children with hemophilia B for:

  • On-demand treatment and control of bleeding episodes
  • Perioperative management of bleeding
  • Routine prophylaxis to reduce the frequency of bleeding episodes

Limitation of Use

ALPROLIX is not indicated for induction of immune tolerance in patients with hemophilia B.

Important Safety Information

Contraindication

ALPROLIX is contraindicated in patients who have a known history of hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, to the product or its excipients.

Warnings and Precautions

  • Allergic-type hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, are possible with factor replacement therapies, and have been reported with ALPROLIX. Discontinue use of ALPROLIX if hypersensitivity symptoms occur, and initiate appropriate treatment.
  • Formation of neutralizing antibodies (inhibitors) to Factor IX has been reported following administration of ALPROLIX. Patients using ALPROLIX should be monitored for the development of Factor IX inhibitors. Clotting assays (e.g., one-stage) may be used to confirm that adequate Factor IX levels have been achieved and maintained.
  • The use of Factor IX products has been associated with the development of thromboembolic complications.
  • Nephrotic syndrome has been reported following attempted immune tolerance induction in hemophilia B patients with Factor IX inhibitors and a history of allergic reactions to Factor IX. The safety and efficacy of using ALPROLIX for immune tolerance induction have not been established.

Adverse reactions

The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥1%) in previously untreated patients were injection site erythema, hypersensitivity, and Factor IX inhibition. The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥1%) in previously treated patients were headache, oral paresthesia, and obstructive uropathy.
