Efficacy and safety of valoctocogene roxaparvovec gene transfer for severe hemophilia A: results from the GENEr8-1 three-year analysis
Introduction In August 2022, Valoctocogene roxaparvovec (AAV5-hFVIII-SQ) received conditional marketing authorization from the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of severe hemophilia A in adult patients without a history of factor VIII inhibitors and without detectable antibodies to adeno-associated virus serotype 5 (AAV5). Stable and durable annualized bleed control superior to prior prophylaxis was previously demonstrated through 2 years post gene transfer. For the first time, we will report the latest findings from the Year 3 analysis of the ongoing GENEr8-1 study (NCT03370913).
Method GENEr8-1 is an open-label, multicenter phase 3 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of 6x1013 vg/kg valoctocogene roxaparvovec in 134 adult men with severe hemophilia A (FVIII ≤1 IU/dL) without inhibitors or anti-AAV5 antibodies (ITT population). Of those, 132 were HIV negative (mITT population), and 112 enrolled from a prospective noninterventional study (rollover population), providing baseline data for annualized bleeding rate (ABR) and FVIII use. The primary efficacy endpoint was change from baseline in ABR for treated bleeds from 5 weeks post-infusion or 3 days after the end of FVIII prophylaxis, whichever was later, to the last visit by data cut-off. Change from baseline in annualized FVIII infusion rate (AFR) and FVIII activity will also be reported for week 156.
Results Updated efficacy and safety assessments from 3-year follow-up data will be shared at the GTH 2023 Congress. Presented endpoints will include FVIII activity, annualized treated bleed and FVIII utilization rates, patients who resumed FVIII prophylaxis, and adverse events.
Conclusions The 3-year data from the phase 3 GENEr8-1 study will provide the first opportunity for the hemophilia community to assess the long-term durability of valoctocogene roxaparvovec in a large cohort. These data will be of key interest to clinicians in Europe who may be considering whether to initiate gene therapy with valoctocogene roxaparvovec with their patients with severe hemophilia A.
