A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Factor IX Gene Therapy With PF-06838435 in Adult Males With Moderately Severe to Severe Hemophilia B
BENEGENE-2
Phase 3, Open-label, Single-arm Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of FIX Gene Transfer With PF-06838435 (rAAV-Spark100-hFIX-R338L) in Adult Male Participants With Moderately Severe to Severe Hemophilia B (FIX:C ≤2%) (BeneGene-2)

Brief Summary
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of PF-06838435 (a gene therapy drug) in adult male participants with moderately severe to severe hemophilia B (participants that have a Factor IX circulating activity of 2% or less). The gene therapy is designed to introduce genetic material into cells to compensate for missing or non-functioning Factor IX. Eligible study participants will have completed a minimum 6 months of routine Factor IX prophylaxis therapy during the lead in study (C0371004). Participants will be dosed once (intravenously) and will be evaluated over the course of 6 years. The main objective of the study will evaluate the annualized bleeding rate \[ABR\] for participants treated with gene therapy versus standard of care (SOC) therapy (FIX prophylaxis replacement regimen).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Total Bleeds (Treated and Untreated) From Week 12 to Month 15
ABR = number of total bleeding episodes on study during the given time period) \*365.25/ (Date of last day - date of first day +1) in that time period. Surgical procedures were excluded from summary/analyses. Treated Bleed: An event necessitating administration of coagulation factor within 72 hours of signs or symptoms of bleeding (protocol definition, unless specifically referring to untreated bleed). Untreated Bleed: A bleeding event not necessitating administration of coagulation factor within 72 hours of signs or symptoms of bleeding. This outcome measure compared data collected from lead-in study C0371004 and from current study C0371002. Pre-infusion period = at least 6 months of prospectively collected data while receiving FIX prophylaxis replacement therapy in lead-in study C0371004 up to dosing in current study C0371002.
Pre-infusion period: minimum of 6 months through first dose of current study, an average of 1.31 years (FIX Prophylaxis arm); Week 12 to Month 15 post infusion in current study (PF-06838435 arm)
Secondary Outcomes (26)
ABR for Treated Bleeds From Week 12 to Month 15
Pre-infusion period: minimum of 6 months through first dose of current study, an average of 1.31 years (FIX Prophylaxis arm); Week 12 to Month 15 post infusion in current study (PF-06838435 arm)
Annualized Infusion Rate (AIR) of Exogenous FIX From Week 12 to Month 15
Pre-infusion period: minimum of 6 months through first dose of current study, an average of 1.31 years (FIX Prophylaxis arm); Week 12 to Month 15 post infusion in current study (PF-06838435 arm)
Steady State Circulating Factor IX (FIX:C) From Week 12 to Month 15
Week 12 to Month 15
Circulating Factor IX (FIX:C) at Week 12, Week 24, Week 65

Limitations and Caveats
C0371004 lead-in ongoing study: did not involve any investigational intervention; designed to collect bleed, infusion data while participants were on their prophylaxis FIX therapy for a minimum of 6 months; data served as within participant comparison group for C0371002; participant flow and AEs are missing as the study has not concluded yet (some participants in the C0371004 are ongoing and supporting a different study NCT04370054) and data will be provided at conclusion of the lead-in study.
