Clinical efficacy and safety
Informationen på denna sida är på engelska.
The clinical efficacy and safety were assessed in two ongoing studies. 1 1. Patel M, et al. Blood. 2023;142(Suppl 1):1260. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
ADZYNMA was studied in a global phase 3, prospective, randomized, controlled, open-label, multicentre, two-period crossover study followed by a single arm continuation period 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596. evaluating the efficacy and safety of the prophylactic and on-demand enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with ADZYNMA compared to plasma-based therapies in patients with severe cTTP (ADAMTS13 activity < 10%).
Prophylactic ERT in patients with cTTP 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
- The efficacy of ADZYNMA was evaluated in 46 patients in the prophylaxis cohort who were randomized to receive 6 months of prophylactic treatment with either 40 IU/kg (± 4 IU/kg) of ADZYNMA or plasma-based therapies (period 1) once weekly (for patients who were previously treated with plasma-based therapies once weekly prior to joining the study) or every other week then crossed over to the other treatment for 6 months (period 2). After periods 1 and 2, all patients entered a 6 month single arm treatment period (period 3). The initial treatment frequency was every other week for 35 (76.1%) patients and once weekly for 9 (19.6%) patients. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
- The mean (SD) age was 30.5 (16.0) years (range: 3 to 58 years). Of the 46 patients, 4 (8.7%) were < 6 years of age, 4 (8.7%) were ≥ 6 to < 12 years of age, 4 (8.7%) were ≥ 12 to < 18 years of age, and 34 (73.9%) were ≥ 18 years of age. The mean (SD) weight was 65.9 kg (21.8) (range: 18.5 to 102.4 kg), and the majority of patients were white (65.2%), and were female (58.7%) of whom 74.1% were of child-bearing potential. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
- Prior to joining the study, the majority (69.6%) of patients received FFP treatment, 21.7% received solvent/detergent (S/D) plasma and 6.5% received FVIII-VWF concentrate. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
- The efficacy of prophylactic treatment with ADZYNMA in patients with cTTP was evaluated based on the incidence of acute TTP events (as defined by a drop in platelet count [≥ 50% of baseline or a platelet count < 100 x 109/L] and an elevation of lactate dehydrogenase [LDH] [> 2 × baseline or > 2 × upper limit normal (ULN)]), subacute TTP events (as defined by a thrombocytopenia event or a microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia event; and organ specific signs and symptoms including but not limited to renal dysfunction events, neurological symptoms events, fever, fatigue/lethargy, and/or abdominal pain), and TTP manifestations (such as thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia, neurological symptoms, renal dysfunction, and abdominal pain); as well as the incidence of supplemental doses prompted by subacute TTP events (see table below). 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.

b From a negative binominal mixed-effects model.
c Elevation of LDH > 1.5 × baseline or > 1.5 x ULN.
d Nervous system disorders (e.g., headache, confusion, memory issues, irritability, paraesthesia, dysarthria, dysphonia, visual disturbances, focal or general motor symptoms including seizures).
e An increase in serum creatinine > 1.5 × baseline.
Overall ADZYNMA efficacy results were consistent throughout the study, including period 3, and across age groups. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
On-demand ERT for acute TTP episodes 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
The efficacy of the on-demand ERT for acute TTP episodes was evaluated based on the proportion of acute TTP events responding to ADZYNMA in both the prophylactic and the on-demand cohorts throughout the duration of the study. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
- An acute TTP event responding to ADZYNMA was defined as a resolved TTP event when platelet count was ≥ 150 x 109/L or platelet count was within 25% of baseline, whichever occurs first, and LDH ≤ 1.5 x baseline or ≤ 1.5 x ULN, without requiring the use of another ADAMTS13-containing agent. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
- The on-demand cohort included 5 adult patients (≥ 18 years of age) and 1 paediatric patient (< 6 years of age). Patients enrolled in this cohort had a total of 7 acute TTP events. Of these 6 patients, 2 patients were randomized to receive on-demand treatment with ADZYNMA and 4 patients were randomized to receive plasma-based therapies. All 7 acute TTP events resolved after treatment with either ADZYNMA or plasma-based therapies within 5 days. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
- Most patients (66.7%) were male, white (50%) with a median (min, max) age of 20 (5, 36) years, a mean (SD) weight of 56.4 (18.6) kg and a median (min, max) weight of 64.3 (23.0, 74.0) kg. 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596.
Continuation study 1 1. Patel M, et al. Blood. 2023;142(Suppl 1):1260.
Patients who completed the phase 3 study 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596. were eligible to enrol in a long-term continuation study 1 1. Patel M, et al. Blood. 2023;142(Suppl 1):1260. . The prophylaxis cohort included 65 patients among which 40 rolled over from the phase 3 study 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596. and 25 were naïve patients. Of the 40 roll-over patients, 7 (17.5%) were ≥ 12 to < 18 years of age, and 33 (82.5%) were ≥ 18 years of age. Of the 25 naïve patients, 3 (12%) were < 6 years of age, 3 (12%) were ≥ 6 to < 12 years of age, 3 (12%) were ≥ 12 to < 18 years of age, and 16 (64%) were ≥ 18 years of age. The on-demand cohort included 1 patient aged ≥ 6 to < 12 years. All patients were treated with ADZYNMA. The mean and maximum prophylactic treatment durations were 0.98 years and 2.17 years, respectively.
Incidence rates of acute and subacute TPP events and TPP manifestations were consistent with the results from the phase 3 study 2 2. Scully M, et al. N Engl J Med. 2024;390(17):1584-1596. .
