HELIOS-A: A Study of Vutrisiran (ALN-TTRSC02) in Patients With Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis (hATTR Amyloidosis)

Phase 3
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Transthyretin Amyloidosis
Amyloidosis, Hereditary
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03759379
Lead Sponsor
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vutrisiran (ALN-TTRSC02) in participants with hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (hATTR amyloidosis). Participants will receive vutrisiran subcutaneous (SC) injection once every 3 months (q3M) or the reference comparator patisiran intravenous (IV) injection once every 3 weeks (q3w) during the 18 month Treatment Period. This study will use the placebo arm of the APOLLO study (NCT01960348) as an external comparator for the primary and most other efficacy endpoints during the 18 Month Treatment Period. Following the 18 Month Treatment Period, all participants will be randomized to receive vutrisiran 50 mg SC injection once every 6 months (q6M) or vutrisiran 25 mg q3M in the Randomized Treatment Extension (RTE) Period. Upon implementation of Amendment 6, participants receiving vutrisiran SC 50 mg q6M will transition to vutrisiran SC 25 mg q3M at their next scheduled dosing.

Vutrisiran + Vutrisiran (HELIOS-A)VutrisiranParticipants will receive vutrisiran 25 mg subcutaneous (SC) injection once every 3 months (q3M) for 18 months during the Treatment Period followed by vutrisiran 50 mg SC injection once every 6 months (q6M) or vutrisiran 25 mg q3M during the Randomized Treatment Extension (RTE) Period. Upon implementation of Amendment 6, participants receiving vutrisiran SC 50 mg q6M will transition to vutrisiran SC 25 mg q3M at their next scheduled dosing.
Patisiran + Vutrisiran (HELIOS-A)PatisiranParticipants will receive patisiran 0.3 mg/kg intravenous (IV) infusion once every 3 weeks (q3w) for 18 months during the Treatment Period followed by vutrisiran 50 mg SC injection once q6M or vutrisiran 25 mg q3M during the RTE Period. Upon implementation of Amendment 6, participants receiving vutrisiran SC 50 mg q6M will transition to vutrisiran SC 25 mg q3M at their next scheduled dosing.
Patisiran + Vutrisiran (HELIOS-A)VutrisiranParticipants will receive patisiran 0.3 mg/kg intravenous (IV) infusion once every 3 weeks (q3w) for 18 months during the Treatment Period followed by vutrisiran 50 mg SC injection once q6M or vutrisiran 25 mg q3M during the RTE Period. Upon implementation of Amendment 6, participants receiving vutrisiran SC 50 mg q6M will transition to vutrisiran SC 25 mg q3M at their next scheduled dosing.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Modified Neurologic Impairment Score +7 (mNIS+7) at Month 9 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 9

The mNIS+7 is a composite score that measures neurologic impairment which includes the following components: physical exam of lower limbs, upper limbs and cranial nerves to assess motor strength/weakness, electrophysiologic measurement of small and large nerve fiber function, sensory testing and postural blood pressure. The mNIS+7 is scored from 0 (no impairment) to 304 points (maximum impairment). A higher score indicates a worse outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Norfolk Quality of Life-Diabetic Neuropathy (Norfolk QoL-DN) Total Score at Month 9 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 9

The Norfolk QoL-DN questionnaire is a standardized 35-item patient-reported outcomes measure that is sensitive to the different features of diabetic neuropathy - small fiber, large fiber, and autonomic nerve function. The total score ranges from -4 (best possible quality of life) to 136 points (worst possible quality of life). A higher score indicates a worse outcome.

Percent Reduction in Serum Transthyretin (TTR) Levels Through Month 18 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the Patisiran Group (HELIOS-A)Up to Month 18

Serum TTR was assessed at multiple timepoints up to Month 18.

Change From Baseline in the Modified Body Mass Index (mBMI) at Month 18 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 18

The mBMI, which is a measure of nutritional status, is calculated as the product of body mass index (BMI) (weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters) and serum albumin (g/L) to reflect fluid balance, such as fluid accumulation or dehydration. A negative change from baseline indicates a better outcome.

Change From Baseline in the Rasch-Built Overall Disability Scale (R-ODS) at Month 18 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 18

The R-ODS is a patient-reported measure of level of disability on a scale of 0-48, with 0 being the worst and 48 the best (no limitations); scores are based on activities of daily living and social participation. An increase in R-ODS from baseline suggests improvement in disability, and a decrease from baseline suggests worsening of disability.

Change From Baseline in the Timed 10-Meter Walk Test (10-MWT) at Month 9 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 9

The 10-MWT is a measure of ambulatory ability and measures the time (in seconds) that it takes a participant to walk 10 meters (gait speed). An increase in gait speed from baseline represents improvement, and a decrease from baseline represents worsening.

Change From Baseline in the Modified Neurologic Impairment Score +7 (mNIS+7) at Month 18 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 18

The mNIS+7 is a composite score that quantifies motor, sensory, and autonomic neurologic impairment due to injury of large and small nerves. The mNIS+7 is scored from 0 (no impairment) to 304 points (maximum impairment). A higher score indicates a worse outcome.

Change From Baseline in Norfolk QoL-DN Total Score at Month 18 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 18

The Norfolk QoL-DN questionnaire is a standardized 35-item patient-reported outcomes measure that is sensitive to the different features of diabetic neuropathy - small fiber, large fiber, and autonomic nerve function. The total score ranges from -4 (best possible quality of life) to 136 points (worst possible quality of life). A higher score indicates a worse outcome.

Change From Baseline in the 10-MWT at Month 18 Between the Vutrisiran Group (HELIOS-A) and the External Placebo Comparator Group [APOLLO (NCT01960348)]Baseline, Month 18

The 10-MWT is a measure of ambulatory ability and measures the time (in seconds) that it takes a participant to walk 10 meters (gait speed). An increase in gait speed from baseline represents improvement, and a decrease from baseline represents worsening.
