BRIGHT: Study of the Safety, Efficacy, & PK of Pegunigalsidase Alfa (PRX-102) 2 mg/kg IV Administered Every 4 Weeks in Fabry Disease Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This open-label switchover study will assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of pegunigalsidase alfa (PRX-102) 2 mg/kg administered every 4 weeks for 52 weeks in Fabry patients previously treated with ERT: agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta for at least 3 years. Safety and efficacy exploratory endpoints will be evaluated throughout the study period and pharmacokinetics will be obtained on Day 1 and Week 52.

Detailed Description
This is an open-label switchover study to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of pegunigalsidase alfa treatment of 2 mg/kg every 4 weeks in patients previously treated with enzyme-replacement therapy (ERT): agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta, for at least 3 years and on a stable dose (>80% labelled dose/kg) for at least the last 6 months. Following screening, patients will be enrolled and switched from their current ERT to receive intravenous (IV) infusions of pegunigalsidase alfa 2 mg/kg every 4 weeks for 52 weeks (total of 14 infusions). At the time of enrollment, premedication, if used for the agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta infusions before enrollment, will be continued using the same premedication regimen during the first infusion with pegunigalsidase alfa and then will be gradually tapered down at the Investigator's discretion during the next infusions based on protocol-specified criteria. First infusions of pegunigalsidase alfa will be administered under controlled conditions at the investigation site. Based on the protocol-specified criteria, patients will be able to receive their pegunigalsidase alfa infusions at a home care setup once the Investigator and Sponsor Medical Monitor agree that it is safe to do so. Safety and efficacy exploratory endpoints will be assessed throughout the 52-week study. In the case of clear clinical deterioration, the treatment may be changed to 1.0 mg/kg every 2 weeks at the Investigator's discretion and discussion with the Medical Monitor.

Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Key inclusion criteria:
Eligible subjects must fulfill the following inclusion criteria:
-
Age: 18-60 years
-
A documented diagnosis of Fabry disease
-
Males: plasma and/or leucocyte alpha galactosidase activity (by activity assay) less than lower limit of normal according to the laboratory reference ranges and one or more of the characteristic features of Fabry disease
-
Neuropathic pain
-
Cornea verticillata
-
Clustered angiokeratoma
-
Females: historical genetic test results consistent with Fabry mutations, or in the case of novel mutations a first-degree male relative with Fabry disease, and one or more of the characteristic features of Fabry disease
-
Neuropathic pain
-
Cornea verticillata
-
Clustered angiokeratoma
-
Treatment with agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta for at least 3 years and on a stable dose (>80% labelled dose/kg) for at least last 6 months
-
eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 by CKD-EPI equation at screening visit
-
Availability of at least 3 historical serum creatinine evaluations since starting agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta treatment and not more than 2 years old
-
Female patients and male patients whose co-partners are of child-bearing potential agree to use a medically accepted, highly effective method of contraception. These include combined (estrogen- and progestogen-containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, intravaginal, or transdermal), progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, injectable, or implantable), intrauterine device (IUD), intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS), bilateral tubal occlusion, vasectomised partner, or sexual abstinence
-
Patients whose clinical condition, in the opinion of the Investigator, is suitable for treatment with ERT every 4 weeks.
Key exclusion criteria:
The presence of any of the following excludes a subject from study enrollment:
-
History of anaphylaxis or Type 1 hypersensitivity reaction to agalsidase alfa or agalsidase beta
-
History of renal dialysis or transplantation
-
Linear negative slope of eGFR of ≥ 2 mL/min/1.73 m2 based on at least 4 serum creatinine values over approximately 2 years (including the value obtained at the screening visit)
-
History of acute kidney injury in the 12 months prior to screening, including specific kidney diseases (e.g., acute interstitial nephritis, acute glomerular and vasculitic renal diseases); non-specific conditions (e.g., ischemia, toxic injury); as well as extrarenal pathology (e.g., prerenal azotemia and acute post renal obstructive nephropathy)
-
Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) therapy initiated or dose changed in the 4 weeks prior to screening
-
