About this study
Official title: ATLAS-A/B: A Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Fitusiran in Patients With Hemophilia A or B, Without Inhibitory Antibodies to Factor VIII or IX
Primary Objective:
-To evaluate the efficacy of fitusiran compared to on-demand treatment with factor concentrates, as determined by the frequency of bleeding episodes.
Secondary Objectives:
- To evaluate the efficacy of fitusiran compared to on-demand treatment with factor concentrates, as determined by:
- The frequency of spontaneous bleeding episodes.
- The frequency of joint bleeding episodes.
- Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in participants >=17 years of age.
- To determine the frequency of bleeding episodes during the onset period.
- To determine the safety and tolerability of fitusiran.
Read the detailed description
The duration of treatment with fitusiran was 9 months. The estimated total time on study, inclusive of screening, was up to 11 months for all participants in the factor on-demand arm and for participants in the fitusiran arm who enrolled in the extension study (LTE15174). The estimated total time on the study was up to 17 months for participants in the fitusiran treatment arm who did not enroll in the extension study due to the requirement for up to an additional 6 months of follow-up monitoring for antithrombin levels.
Participants who completed the study will be eligible for an open-label extension study LTE15174 (NCT03754790).

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Estimated Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Treated Bleeds During the Efficacy Period
ABR for a participant during efficacy period (EP) was defined as annualized number of bleeding episodes during EP annualized to a 1-year interval of time. Treated Bleeding episode: any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of by-passing agents (BPA) or factor. It started from first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after last treatment for bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at same location or injections less than or equal to (<=) 72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. EP was defined as time duration starting from Day 29 when antithrombin (AT) lowering capacity of fitusiran had achieved therapeutic target range to the earliest of Day 246 or last day of bleeding follow up (maximum duration of EP: from Day 29 to Day 246). This outcome measure (OM) presents estimated results (i.e., results received by applying negative binomial [NB] regression model on data collected during EP).
Measured: From Day 29 up to Day 246 or up to the last day of bleeding follow up (any day up to Day 246), whichever was the earliest
Observed Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Treated Bleeds During the Efficacy Period
ABR for a participant during EP was defined as annualized number of bleeding episodes during EP annualized to a 1-year interval of time. ABR= number of bleeding episodes during EP divided by total number of days during EP*365.25. A bleeding episode was defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of BPA or factor. It started from the first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after the last treatment for the bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at the same location or injections <=72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. EP was defined as time duration starting from Day 29 when the AT lowering capacity of fitusiran had achieved therapeutic target range to the earliest of Day 246 or the last day of bleeding follow up (maximum duration of EP: from Day 29 to Day 246). This OM presents observed results (i.e., descriptive statistics values based on the data collected during EP).
Measured: From Day 29 up to Day 246 or up to the last day of bleeding follow up (any day up to Day 246), whichever was the earliest

Observed Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Treated Bleeds During the Treatment Period
ABR for a participant during TP was defined as annualized number of bleeding episodes during TP annualized to a 1- year interval of time. ABR= number of bleeding episodes during TP divided by total number of days during TP*365.25. Bleeding episode: any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of BPA or factor. It started from the first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after last treatment for bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at the same location or injections <=72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. TP was sum of onset period (first 28 days after the first dose of fitusiran) and EP (starting on Day 29 when AT lowering capacity of fitusiran had achieved therapeutic target range to the earliest of Day 246 or the last day of bleeding follow up (maximum duration of TP: from Day 1 to Day 246).

Health-related Quality of Life (HRQOL): Change From Baseline in Haemophilia Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adults (Haem-A-QOL) Physical Health Score at Month 9
Haem-A-QoL: participant-reported questionnaire designed for adult participants (>=17 years of age) with hemophilia; and consisted of 46 items comprising 10 domains (physical health, feelings, view of yourself, sports and leisure, work and school, dealing with hemophilia, treatment, future, family planning, partnership and sexuality). Scoring for each item was based on a 5-point Likert scale (1= never, 2= rarely, 3= sometimes, 4= often, and 5=all the time), and higher scores represented greater impairment. Change from baseline in physical health domain score was reported in this outcome measure. Raw score for physical health domain were transformed to a scale ranged from 0 (better health outcome) to 100 (worst health outcome), where lower scores denoted better physical health.
Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Month 9
Health-related Quality of Life (HRQOL): Change From Baseline in Haem-A-QOL Total Score at Month 9
Haem-A-QoL: participant-reported questionnaire designed for adult participants (>=17 years of age) with hemophilia; and consisted of 46 items comprising 10 domains (physical health, feelings, view of yourself, sports and leisure, work and school, dealing with hemophilia, treatment, future, family planning, partnership and sexuality). Scoring for each item was based on a 5-point Likert scale (1= never, 2= rarely, 3= sometimes, 4= often, and 5=all the time), and higher scores represent greater impairment. Raw score for each domain were transformed to a scale ranged between 0 and 100, where lower scores denoted better health. Haem-A-QoL total score was average of all domain scores and ranged from 0 (better health outcome) to 100 (worst health outcome), where lower scores denoted better physical health.
Measured: Baseline (Day 1), Month 9
Estimated Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Treated Bleeds During the Onset Period
ABR was annualized number of bleeding episodes during onset period per participant annualized to a 1-year interval of time. A treated bleeding episode was defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of BPA or factor. It started from the first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after the last treatment for the bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at the same location or injections <=72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. The onset period was defined as time interval from Day 1 to the earlier of Day 28 or the last day of bleeding follow up. This OM presents estimated results (i.e., results received by applying NB regression model on data collected during onset period).
Measured: From Day 1 up to Day 28 or up to the last day of bleeding follow up (any day up to Day 28), whichever was the earliest
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)
An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. Treatment-emergent AEs were defined as any AE with onset date after first dose of fitusiran in the fitusiran prophylaxis arm or after Day 1 visit in the factor on-demand arm. A serious AE (SAE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability or incapacity, was a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or was a medically important event.
Measured: From Baseline (Day 1) up to 15 months (i.e., 9 months treatment period + 6-month follow-up)

Primary Objective:
-To evaluate the efficacy of fitusiran compared to on-demand treatment with factor concentrates, as determined by the frequency of bleeding episodes.
Secondary Objectives:
- To evaluate the efficacy of fitusiran compared to on-demand treatment with factor concentrates, as determined by:
- The frequency of spontaneous bleeding episodes.
- The frequency of joint bleeding episodes.
- Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in participants >=17 years of age.
- To determine the frequency of bleeding episodes during the onset period.
- To determine the safety and tolerability of fitusiran.
Detailed description
The duration of treatment with fitusiran was 9 months. The estimated total time on study, inclusive of screening, was up to 11 months for all participants in the factor on-demand arm and for participants in the fitusiran arm who enrolled in the extension study (LTE15174). The estimated total time on the study was up to 17 months for participants in the fitusiran treatment arm who did not enroll in the extension study due to the requirement for up to an additional 6 months of follow-up monitoring for antithrombin levels.
Participants who completed the study will be eligible for an open-label extension study LTE15174 (NCT03754790).

Primary outcome
Estimated Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Treated Bleeds During the Efficacy Period
Time frame: From Day 29 up to Day 246 or up to the last day of bleeding follow up (any day up to Day 246), whichever was the earliest
ABR for a participant during efficacy period (EP) was defined as annualized number of bleeding episodes during EP annualized to a 1-year interval of time. Treated Bleeding episode: any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of by-passing agents (BPA) or factor. It started from first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after last treatment for bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at same location or injections less than or equal to (<=) 72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. EP was defined as time duration starting from Day 29 when antithrombin (AT) lowering capacity of fitusiran had achieved therapeutic target range to the earliest of Day 246 or last day of bleeding follow up (maximum duration of EP: from Day 29 to Day 246). This outcome measure (OM) presents estimated results (i.e., results received by applying negative binomial [NB] regression model on data collected during EP).
Observed Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Treated Bleeds During the Efficacy Period
Time frame: From Day 29 up to Day 246 or up to the last day of bleeding follow up (any day up to Day 246), whichever was the earliest
ABR for a participant during EP was defined as annualized number of bleeding episodes during EP annualized to a 1-year interval of time. ABR= number of bleeding episodes during EP divided by total number of days during EP*365.25. A bleeding episode was defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that required administration of BPA or factor. It started from the first sign of a bleed and ended no more than 72 hours after the last treatment for the bleed, within which any symptoms of bleeding at the same location or injections <=72 hours apart were considered the same bleeding episode. EP was defined as time duration starting from Day 29 when the AT lowering capacity of fitusiran had achieved therapeutic target range to the earliest of Day 246 or the last day of bleeding follow up (maximum duration of EP: from Day 29 to Day 246). This OM presents observed results (i.e., descriptive statistics values based on the data collected during EP).

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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 4 Feb 2022). 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?
Estimated Annualized Bleeding Rate (ABR) for Treated Bleeds During the Efficacy Period (time frame: From Day 29 up to Day 246 or up to the last day of bleeding follow up (any day up to Day 246), whichever was the earliest). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03417245, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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?
