Summary

This is a Phase 3 open-label, multicenter, randomized, active-controlled study designed to compare the efficacy and safety and tolerability of P1101 compared with ANA after 12 months of treatment as second-line therapy for subjects with ET who have had a suboptimal or failed response to HU.

Description

PharmaEssentia Corporation is developing a pegylated (PEG) IFN- product, P1101, for the treatment of ET.

Available clinical data and experience with P1101 in PV shows that the compound, with proper dose modifications, is effective in controlling disease in a significant proportion of subjects with ET. Further, its increased serum half-life presents distinct advantages for ET treatment over that of standard IFN- and other available PEG IFN- therapy. This pivotal Phase 3 study will establish the efficacy and safety of P1101 in ET subjects.

The enrolled subjects will be randomized into two arms, the test arm is P1101, the control arm is ANA. The overall duration for each eligible patient is 14 months, including screening (1 month), treatment (12 months) and follow-up (1 month) period. Efficacy evaluations, safety assessments, and PK and immunogenicity evaluations of P1101 will be performed.

Evaluation of efficacy will include clinical laboratory assessments, allelic burden measurements of CALR, JAK-2, and MPL, spleen size measurements, bone marrow sampling, EQ-5D-3L, and MPN-SAF TSS completion.

Evaluation of safety will include assessing vital signs, clinical safety laboratory tests, physical examinations, ECG evaluation, heart ECHO, lung X-ray, ECOG performance status, ocular examination, and AEs.

any dose and any duration of therapy (e.g., leg ulcers, mucocutaneous
manifestations, pneumonitis, or HU-related fever)
\. Platelets >450 x 109/L at screening

(ULN), prothrombin time (PT) (international normalized ratio, INR) 1.5 x ULN
albumin >3.5 g/dL, alanine aminotransferase 2.0 x ULN, aspartate
aminotransferase 2.0 x ULN at screening
\. Creatinine clearance 40 mL/min (by Cockcroft-Gault equation)
\. Males and females of childbearing potential, as well as all women <2
years after the onset of menopause, must agree to use an acceptable form of
birth control until 28 days following the last dose of the study drug, and
females must agree to not breastfeed during the study
\. Written informed consent obtained from the subject and ability for the
subject to comply with the requirements of the study

Exclusion Criteria

Any subject requiring a legally authorized representative
Any contraindications or hypersensitivity to IFN- or ANA and their excipients
Co-morbidity with severe or serious condition that, in the Investigator's opinion, would jeopardize the safety of the subject or their compliance with the protocol, including significant cardiac disease (including New York Heart Association Class III-IV congestive heart failure and clinically significant arrhythmias) and pulmonary hypertension
Known risk factors for QT-prolongation (e.g., congenital long QT, known history of acquired QT-prolongations). Medications that can prolong QTc and induce hypokalemia will not be allowed in the study
History of major organ transplantation
Pregnant or lactating females
Subjects with any other significant medical conditions that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would compromise the results of the study or may impair compliance with the requirements of the protocol, including but not limited to
Documented autoimmune disease at screening or in the history (e.g., thyroid dysfunction, hepatitis, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, scleroderma, psoriasis, or any arthritis of autoimmune origin)
Clinically relevant pulmonary infiltrates, pneumonia, and pneumonitis at screening that, in the Investigator's opinion, would jeopardize the safety of the subject or their compliance with the protocol
Infections with systemic manifestations (e.g., bacterial, fungal, or human immunodeficiency virus [HIV], except hepatitis B [HBV] and/or hepatitis C [HCV], at screening)
Evidence of severe retinopathy (e.g., cytomegalovirus retinitis, macular degeneration) or clinically relevant ophthalmological disorder (due to diabetes mellitus or hypertension)
History or presence of clinically relevant depression, or previous suicide attempts or at any risk of suicide at screening, in the judgement of the Investigator
History of any malignancy within 5 years (except Stage 0 chronic lymphocytic leukemia, basal cell, squamous cell, and superficial melanoma)
History or presence of clinically significant neurodegenerative diseases
History of alcohol or drug abuse within the last year
Use of any investigational drug <4 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug or not recovered from effects of prior administration of any investigational agent
History or evidence of any other MPN
Subjects with documented ANA resistance or intolerance (see Appendix 8 for definition)
