Phase

1

Condition

Hemophilia

Treatment

BBM-H901

Clinical Study ID

NCT05709288
IIT2022051
  • Ages 12-18
  • Male

Study Summary

This is a Phase 1, open- label, non- randomized, uncontrolled, single dose pilot study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a single intravenous infusion of BBM-H901 in hemophilia B subjects with ≤2IU/dl residual FIX levels and aged 12-18 years old. BBM-H901 is an adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector designed to drive expression of the human factor IX (hFIX) transgene and raise circulating levels of endogenous FIX.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Subjects and statutory guardian must be able to understand the purpose and risks ofthe study and provide signed and dated informed consent;

  2. Be male and 12≤ age <18 years of age, body wight ≥ 50kg;

  3. Have hemophilia B with ≤2 IU/dL (≤2 %) endogenous FIX activity levels as documentedby a certified clinical laboratory at the time of screening. If the screening resultis >2% due to insufficient washout from FIX protein product, then the severity ofhemophilia B may be confirmed by documented historical evidence from a certifiedclinical laboratory demonstrating ≤2% FIX coagulant activity (FIX:C) ;

  4. Had had ≥75 prior exposure days (EDs) to any recombinant and/or plasma-derived FIXprotein products based on historical data from the subject's record/history;

  5. With ≤ 1:4 neutralizing antibodies and ≤1:200 binding antibodies against BBM-H901capsid;

  6. Subjects with bleeding episode and/ or FIX agents infusion events within 12 weeksprior to screening;

  7. Have no prior history of hypersensitivity or anaphylaxis associated with any FIX orIV immunoglobulin administration;

  8. Have no measurable FIX inhibitor as assessed by laboratory; or documented no priorhistory of FIX inhibitor (family history of inhibitors will not exclude the subject)and no clinical signs or symptoms of decreased response to FIX administration;

  9. Have acceptable laboratory values:

  10. Hemoglobin ≥11 g/dL ;

  11. Platelets ≥100,000 cells/μL;

  12. AST, ALT ≤1.5x upper limit of normal at the testing laboratory;

  13. Bilirubin ≤1.5x ULN ;

  14. glomerular filtration rate eGFR ≥ 60ml/min.

  15. For those subjects with sexual maturity, subject and statutory guardian must knowthat subjects must agree to use reliable barrier contraception until 52 weeks;

  16. with good compliance to the schedule of visit and fill in the subject diary.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Hepatitis B surface antigen antibody (HBSAg-Ab) or HBV-DNA positive; hepatitis Cantibody or HCV-RNA positive;

  2. Currently on antiviral therapy for hepatitis B or C;

  3. With coagulation disorders other than hemophilia B;

  4. Had immunosuppressive therapy other than steroid and other suggested IST agentswithin 30 days prior to screening;

  5. Had vaccine 30 days prior to screening or have scheduled vaccination plan during thestudy (up to 52 weeks);

  6. Have significant underlying liver disease, as defined by a preexisting diagnosis ofportal hypertension, splenomegaly, encephalopathy, etc; other liver conditionsunsuitable to gene therapy judged by investigator;

  7. Have surgery plan within 52 weeks after gene therapy;

  8. Have history of chronic infection or high rish of infection that the Investigatorconsiders to constitute an unacceptable risk;

  9. Had participated in a previous gene therapy research trial within the last 52 weeksor in a clinical study with an investigational drug within the last 12 weeks;

  10. Had any herb that may affect the liver function within 4 weeks prior to screening;

  11. Have history of fatal bleeding episode, eg intracranial hemorrhage, etc;

  12. Any concurrent clinically significant major disease or any other condition that, inthe opinion of the Investigator, makes the subject unsuitable for participation inthe study;

Study Description

This is a Phase 1, open- label, non- randomized, uncontrolled, single dose pilot study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a single intravenous infusion of BBM-H901 in hemophilia B subjects with ≤2IU/dl residual FIX levels and aged 12-18 years old. BBM-H901 is an adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector designed to drive expression of the human factor IX (hFIX) transgene and raise circulating levels of endogenous FIX. Nine subjects will be enrolled and administered with single infusion of BBM-H901, an AAV at one dose level of 5x10'12 vg/Kg. Subjects and statutory guardian must provide informed consent and then undergo screening assessments up to 4-8weeks prior administration of BBM-H901. All subjects will undergo 52(+- 2) weeks safety observation and will be continuously followed up to evaluate long- term safety and efficacy of BBM-H901 up to ten years. The first subject will be dosed at 5x10'12 vg/Kg and undergo 8 weeks safety observation of which the data will undergo review by an independent safety committee.
