OBJECTIVES: Gene therapies offer the promise of addressing the root causes of genetic disorders such as Hemophilia B. However, HTA authorities expressed challenges in assessing their value due to a lack of long-term data. We developed a novel Bayesian (BASE) model to predict the durability of gene therapy for adult patients with hemophilia B (PWHB).
METHODS: The BASE model incorporated 2-year (phase 3) and 2.5 year (phase 2b) factor IX (FIX) levels of adult PWHB receiving etranacogene dezaparvovec. The 5-year predictions were compared against observed 5-year data from follow-up. The 5-year clinical data was then included to update predictions for PWHB with FIX level ≥ 5%, up to 25 years post infusion.
RESULTS: Mean observed FIX values were within the 95% credible interval (CrI) of the corresponding mean prediction for the 3rd, 4th, and 5th year post infusion, e.g. the observed 5 year result was 36.7% (combined Phase 2b/3) and 33.6% (CrI: 24.7%, 39.5%) from the model. The updated BASE model including month 60 data from Phase 2b/3 predicts that 91% of patients would have FIX ≥5% at 25-years post infusion.
CONCLUSIONS: The BASE model generated statistically unbiased estimates and was validated through comparison with observed findings. The predictive results reduce the uncertainty around the long-term durability of etranacogene dezaparvovec suggesting that there is sustained durability anticipated for > 90% of patients over a period of 25 years.
