Inhibitor development remains a major challenge in factor VIII (FVIII) replacement therapy. verITI-8 is the first prospective study of a recombinant FVIII Fc fusion protein (rFVIIIFc; efmoroctocog alfa) for first-time immune tolerance induction (ITI) in males with severe hemophilia A and high-titer inhibitors (historical peak ≥5 Bethesda units [BU]/mL). In this single-arm, open-label, multicenter study, screening was followed by ITI (rFVIIIFc 200 IU/kg per day until tolerization or maximum of 48 weeks). Those who achieved ITI success entered a tapering period, returning to standard prophylaxis, and then entered follow-up. Primary end point was time to tolerization with rFVIIIFc defined by inhibitor titer <0.6 BU/mL, incremental recovery (IR) ≥66% of expected IR (IR ≥1.32 IU/dL per IU/kg), and half-life (t½) ≥7 hours within 48 weeks. Sixteen patients received ≥1 rFVIIIFc dose. Twelve (75%), 11 (69%), and 10 patients (63%), respectively, achieved negative inhibitor titers, an IR ≥66%, and a t½ ≥7 hours (ie, tolerance) within 48 weeks. Median times in weeks to achieve these markers of success were 7.4 (interquartile range [IQR], 2.2-17.8), 6.8 (IQR, 5.4-22.4), and 11.7 (IQR, 9.8-26.2), respectively. All patients experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), and 1 reported ≥1 related TEAE (injection site pain). Nine patients experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent serious AE. No thrombotic events, discontinuations because of AEs, or deaths were reported during the study. As the first extended half-life rFVIII with prospective data in ITI, rFVIIIFc offered short time to tolerization with durable responses in almost two-thirds of patients and was well tolerated. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03093480.
