About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open-Label, Ascending Dose Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of AAV2/6 Factor IX Gene Therapy Via Zinc Finger Nuclease (ZFN) Mediated Targeted Integration of SB-FIX in Adult Subjects With Severe Hemophilia B

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effect on FIX antigen and activity levels of ascending doses of SB-FIX. SB-FIX is an intravenously delivered Zinc Finger Nuclease (ZFN) Therapeutic for genome editing. It inserts a correct copy of the Factor 9 gene into the albumin locus in hepatocytes with the goal of lifelong therapeutic production of the Factor IX clotting factor.

Read the detailed description

The objective of the study is to provide long term expression of Factor IX in subjects with severe hemophilia B. SB-FIX is a therapeutic for ZFN-mediated genome editing which will be delivered by adeno-associated virus (AAV)-derived vectors. SB-FIX is intended to function by placement of a corrective copy of the Factor IX transgene into the genome of the subject's own hepatocytes, under the control of the highly expressed endogenous albumin locus, and is expected to provide permanent, liver-specific expression of Factor IX for the lifetime of a hemophilia B subject.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment Related Adverse Events in Subjects Who Received SB-FIX as Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)

    Number of Participants with Treatment Related Adverse Events in Subjects Who Received SB-FIX as Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE).

    Measured: Up to 36 months after the SB-FIX infusion

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Change From Baseline in Factor 9 Antigen Levels Measured in IU/mL and Factor 9 Activity Levels Measured in IU/mL at Week 28 After SB-FIX Infusion

    FIX antigen levels measured in IU/mL using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA).

    FIX activity levels measured in IU/mL using One-Stage Clot.

    Measured: From screening through to week 28 after SB-FIX infusion

  2. Use of Factor IX Replacement Therapy

    Participants received a single intravenous infusion of SB-FIX which is formed of 3 components (ZFN1, ZFN2, and cDNA donor) in 200mL of diluent adjusted to 0.25% human serum albumin on day 0 over a period of 2-8 hours.

    Measured: From baseline through 36 months after the SB-FIX infusion

  3. Frequency and Severity of Bleeding Episodes

    The number and severity of bleeding events were collected from 3 weeks post-SB-FIX treatment, and for 120 weeks thereafter.

    Measured: From baseline through 36 months after the SB-FIX infusion

  4. Immune Response to FIX

    Neutralizing antibodies to FIX measured by FIX inhibitor levels using Nijmegen-Bethesda assays.

    Measured: Change from baseline through 28 weeks after the SB-FIX infusion

  5. Presence of Shedding of AAV2/6 Vector DNA (in Copies/10 µL) by PCR in Plasma

    Two laboratory tests were run: AAV2/6-ZFN 42906 and AAV2/6-hF9. Presence in plasma was measured in number of copies/10 µL of whole plasma.

    Measured: From baseline through week 20 after SB-FIX infusion

  6. Presence and Shedding of AAV2/6 Vector DNA (in Copies/100ng) by PCR in Saliva, Stool and Semen

    Subject data were collected at baseline and post infusion. Two laboratory tests were run for each sample type: AAV2/6-ZFN 42906 and AAV2/6-hF9. The presence of AAV2/6 vector DNA in saliva and stool was measured in number of copies/100 ng of sample DNA.

    Measured: From baseline through week 20 after SB-FIX infusion

  7. Presence and Shedding of AAV2/6 Vector DNA (in Copies/250 µL) by PCR in Urine

    Two laboratory tests were run: AAV2/6-ZFN 42906 and AAV2/6-hF9. Its presence in urine was measured in number of copies/250 µL of whole urine.

    Measured: From baseline through week 12 after SB-FIX infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing SB-FIX in people with Hemophilia B, run by Sangamo Therapeutics at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 21 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Jul 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Treatment Related Adverse Events in Subjects Who Received SB-FIX as Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) (time frame: Up to 36 months after the SB-FIX infusion). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02695160, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Jul 2024.
