IDELVION: A Comprehensive Review of Clinical Trial and Real-World Data.

Hemophilia B is a bleeding disorder caused by a deficiency of coagulation factor IX (FIX). Treatment with FIX replacement products can increase FIX activity levels to minimize or prevent bleeding events. However, frequent dosing with standard-acting FIX products can create a high treatment burden. Long-acting products have been developed to maintain bleed protection with extended dosing intervals. Recombinant factor IX-albumin fusion protein (rIX-FP) is a long-acting product indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis of bleeding events and perioperative management in adult and pediatric patients. This review outlines data from all previously treated patients in the Prophylaxis and On-Demand Treatment using Longer Half-Life rIX-FP (PROLONG-9FP) clinical trial program and summarizes real-world data evaluating the use of rIX-FP in routine clinical practice. In the PROLONG-9FP program, rIX-FP demonstrated effective hemostasis in all patients at dose regimens of up to 21 days in patients aged ≥ 18 years and up to 14 days in patients aged < 12 years. rIX-FP has a favorable pharmacokinetic profile and an excellent safety and tolerability profile. Extended dosing intervals with rIX-FP led to high levels of adherence and reduced consumption compared with other FIX therapies. Data from real-world practice are encouraging and reflect the results of the clinical trials.
