BOSTON & ZUG, Switzerland & CAMBRIDGE, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated<\/a> (Nasdaq: VRTX) and CRISPR Therapeutics<\/a> (Nasdaq: CRSP) announce presentation of new data on exa-cel, formerly known as CTX001\u2122, from CLIMB-111, CLIMB-121 and CLIMB-131 highlighting the potentially transformative profile of this investigational therapy for people with transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia (TDT) or severe sickle cell disease (SCD) and provided additional program updates.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nNew Data for exa-cel from CLIMB Clinical Studies
\n
<\/b>The data presented at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Congress are from 75 patients (44 with TDT and 31 with SCD) with follow-up ranging from 1.2 to 37.2 months after exa-cel dosing.\n<\/p>\n

\nOf the 44 patients with TDT, 26 had beta-zero\/beta-zero or other beta-zero-like severe genotypes. Forty-two of 44 patients with TDT were transfusion-free with follow-up ranging from 1.2 to 37.2 months after exa-cel infusion. Two patients who were not yet transfusion-free had 75% and 89% reductions in transfusion volume. TDT patients had substantial mean increases in fetal hemoglobin (HbF) and corresponding increases in mean total hemoglobin (Hb) with mean total Hb levels increasing to >11 g\/dL by Month 3 and maintained thereafter.\n<\/p>\n

\nAll 31 patients with severe SCD characterized by recurrent vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs) (mean of 3.9 VOCs per year over the prior two years) were free of VOCs after exa-cel infusion through duration of follow-up, with follow-up ranging from 2.0 to 32.3 months. SCD patients had mean HbF (as a proportion of total Hb) of approximately 40% by Month 4 and maintained thereafter.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe safety was generally consistent with myeloablative conditioning with busulfan and autologous stem cell transplant. All patients engrafted neutrophils and platelets after exa-cel infusion. Among the 44 patients with TDT, two patients had serious adverse events (SAEs) considered related to exa-cel. As previously reported, one patient had three SAEs considered related to exa-cel, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), acute respiratory distress syndrome and headache, and one SAE of idiopathic pneumonia syndrome that was considered related to both exa-cel and busulfan. All four SAEs occurred in the context of HLH and have resolved. One patient had SAEs of delayed neutrophil engraftment and thrombocytopenia, both of which were considered related to exa-cel and busulfan, and both SAEs have resolved. Among the 31 patients with SCD, there were no SAEs considered related to exa-cel.\n<\/p>\n

\nAdditional details were presented during the EHA media briefing and can be found in the published abstract and presentation.\n<\/p>\n

\nLate-breaking abstract #LB2367 entitled \u201cEfficacy and Safety of a Single Dose of CTX001 For Transfusion-Dependent \u0392eta-Thalassemia and Severe Sickle Cell Disease,\u201d will be an oral presentation on Sunday, June 12 at 09:45-11:15 CEST.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThese robust data from 75 patients, of which 33 have one year or more of follow-up after exa-cel infusion, further demonstrate the potential of this investigational therapy as a one-time functional cure for patients with transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia or severe sickle cell disease,\u201d said Carmen Bozic, M.D., Executive Vice President, Global Medicines Development and Medical Affairs, and Chief Medical Officer at Vertex.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cBy reactivating a naturally occurring developmental process, exa-cel restores fetal hemoglobin production and thereby can ameliorate the course of these diseases,\u201d said Haydar Frangoul, M.D., Medical Director of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at Sarah Cannon Research Institute, HCA Healthcare\u2019s The Children\u2019s Hospital at TriStar Centennial Medical Center. \u201cThe remarkable results based on this approach give me great optimism and confidence in the potential of this treatment for patients.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI have seen first-hand the impact that this investigational therapy has had on patients in these clinical trials and continue to be impressed by the totality of the data,\u201d said Franco Locatelli, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Pediatrics at the Sapienza University of Rome, Director of the Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at Bambino Ges\u00f9 Children\u2019s Hospital. \u201cGiven the urgency for highly effective and curative therapies for patients with hemoglobinopathies, I am excited to be part of the team working towards the goal of addressing this unmet need.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nExa-cel Study Updates
\n
<\/b>Following ongoing discussions with regulators, the clinical trial protocols for CLIMB-111 and CLIMB-121 were amended to incorporate feedback on the primary endpoints for regulatory submission. Specifically, the primary endpoint in CLIMB-111 for TDT has been amended from proportion of subjects achieving transfusion reduction after exa-cel infusion to proportion of subjects maintaining weighted average Hb \u22659 g\/dL without red blood cell (RBC) transfusions for at least 12 consecutive months after exa-cel infusion.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe primary endpoint in CLIMB-121 for SCD has been updated from proportion of subjects with HbF \u226520% after exa-cel infusion, to proportion of subjects who have not experienced any severe VOCs for at least 12 consecutive months after exa-cel infusion.\n<\/p>\n

\nBoth clinical trials are now in Phase 3 and are fully enrolled. All patients will have the opportunity to join CLIMB-131, a long-term follow-up study, after completing participation in the initial studies.\n<\/p>\n

\nAdditional Pediatric Studies
\n
<\/b>In line with the company\u2019s strategy of developing therapies for patients of all ages, two additional Phase 3 studies of exa-cel have begun. Earlier this year, the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) met to review the data in adults and adolescents and endorsed expanding into younger pediatric patients. CLIMB-141 and CLIMB-151 are Phase 3 open-label trials designed to assess the safety and efficacy of a single dose of exa-cel in patients ages 2 to 11 years with TDT or SCD, respectively. The trials are now open for enrollment and currently enrolling patients ages 5 to 11 years and will plan to extend to patients 2 to less than 5 years of age at a later date. Each trial will enroll approximately 12 patients. Patients will be followed for approximately two years after infusion. Each patient will be asked to participate in CLIMB-131, a long-term follow-up trial.\n<\/p>\n

\nVertex also presented three additional abstracts on the burden of disease in sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia at the EHA Congress.<\/b>\n<\/p>\n

    \nAbout exagamglogene autotemcel (exa-cel)
    \n
    <\/b>Exa\u2011cel, formerly known as CTX001, is an investigational, autologous, ex vivo<\/i> CRISPR\/Cas9 gene\u2011edited therapy that is being evaluated for patients with TDT or SCD characterized by recurrent VOCs, in which a patient\u2019s own hematopoietic stem cells are edited to produce high levels of fetal hemoglobin (HbF; hemoglobin F) in red blood cells. HbF is the form of the oxygen\u2011carrying hemoglobin that is naturally present during fetal development, which then switches to the adult form of hemoglobin after birth. The elevation of HbF by exa\u2011cel has the potential to alleviate transfusion requirements for patients with TDT and reduce painful and debilitating sickle crises for patients with SCD. Earlier results from these ongoing trials were published in The New England Journal of Medicine<\/i> in January of 2021.\n<\/p>\n

    \nBased on progress in this program to date, exa\u2011cel has been granted Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT), Fast Track, Orphan Drug, and Rare Pediatric Disease designations from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for both TDT and SCD. Exa-cel has also been granted Orphan Drug Designation from the European Commission, as well as Priority Medicines (PRIME) designation from the European Medicines Agency (EMA), for both TDT and SCD.\n<\/p>\n

    \nAmong gene\u2011editing approaches being evaluated for TDT and SCD, exa\u2011cel is the furthest advanced in clinical development.\n<\/p>\n

    \nAbout CLIMB\u2011111 and CLIMB\u2011121
    \n
    <\/b>The ongoing Phase 1\/2\/3 open\u2011label trials, CLIMB\u2011111 and CLIMB\u2011121, are designed to assess the safety and efficacy of a single dose of exa\u2011cel in patients ages 12 to 35 years with TDT or with SCD, characterized by recurrent VOCs, respectively. The trials are now closed for enrollment. Patients will be followed for approximately two years after exa\u2011cel infusion. Each patient will be asked to participate in CLIMB\u2011131, a long\u2011term follow\u2011up trial.\n<\/p>\n

    \nAbout CLIMB-131
    \n
    <\/b>This is a long\u2011term, open\u2011label trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of exa\u2011cel in patients who received exa\u2011cel in CLIMB\u2011111, CLIMB\u2011121, CLIMB\u2011141 or CLIMB\u2011151. The trial is designed to follow participants for up to 15 years after exa\u2011cel infusion.\n<\/p>\n

    \nAbout CLIMB\u2011141 and CLIMB\u2011151
    \n
    <\/b>The ongoing Phase 3 open-label trials, CLIMB\u2011141 and CLIMB\u2011151, are designed to assess the safety and efficacy of a single dose of exa\u2011cel in patients ages 2 to 11 years with TDT or with SCD, characterized by recurrent VOCs, respectively. The trials are now open for enrollment and currently enrolling patients ages 5 to 11 years of age and will plan to extend to patients 2 to less than 5 years of age at a later date. Each trial will enroll approximately 12 patients. Patients will be followed for approximately two years after infusion. Each patient will be asked to participate in CLIMB-131, a long\u2011term follow\u2011up trial.\n<\/p>\n

    \nAbout the Gene\u2011Editing Process in These Trials
    \n
    <\/b>Patients who enroll in these trials will have their own hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells collected from peripheral blood. The patient\u2019s cells will be edited using the CRISPR\/Cas9 technology. The edited cells, exa\u2011cel, will then be infused back into the patient as part of an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT), a process which involves a patient being treated with myeloablative busulfan conditioning. Patients undergoing HSCT may also encounter side effects (ranging from mild to severe) that are unrelated to the administration of exa\u2011cel. Patients will initially be monitored to determine when the edited cells begin to produce mature blood cells, a process known as engraftment. After engraftment, patients will continue to be monitored to track the impact of exa\u2011cel on multiple measures of disease and for safety.\n<\/p>\n
