What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial tests a new medicine called Mim8 for individuals with hemophilia A, a condition where blood doesn't clot properly. Mim8 aims to prevent bleeding episodes by replacing the missing clotting factor in the body. The trial includes different groups, with some using a pen-injector and others an enhanced cartridge for administering Mim8. This trial may suit those with hemophilia A who are currently in related ongoing studies. Participants should be willing to follow the trial's procedures and restrictions on other medications. As a Phase 3 trial, this is the final step before FDA approval, offering participants a chance to contribute to a potentially groundbreaking treatment.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop your current medications. However, there are some restrictions on what medicines you can use, and the study doctor will provide more details.

Is there any evidence suggesting that Mim8 is likely to be safe for humans?

Research has shown that Mim8 is generally safe for people with hemophilia A. In a previous study, Mim8 did not cause major safety issues, and participants continued treatment without interruption. This suggests the drug is gentle on the body for most people. Another trial found that many patients did not experience serious side effects while using Mim8. These findings indicate its safety in treating hemophilia A. However, safety can vary for each person, so discussing any concerns with a healthcare provider is advisable. ^{1 2 3 4 5}

Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for hemophilia A?

Researchers are excited about Mim8 for Hemophilia A because it offers a unique approach compared to traditional treatments like factor VIII replacement therapy. Unlike these standard treatments, Mim8 is administered subcutaneously, which is less invasive and potentially more convenient than intravenous options. Additionally, Mim8 uses a bispecific antibody mechanism to mimic factor VIII activity, which may provide more consistent bleeding control. This innovative approach could lead to improved management of Hemophilia A with fewer injections and a more straightforward delivery method.

What evidence suggests that Mim8 might be an effective treatment for hemophilia A?

Research shows that Mim8 holds promise for people with hemophilia A. Studies have found Mim8 effective in reducing bleeding episodes. For instance, one study found that 74.3% of participants experienced no treated bleeds when receiving Mim8 weekly. Another study showed an average of just 0.53 bleeding events per year with Mim8, indicating fewer bleeds over time. These results suggest that Mim8 can help manage hemophilia A by replacing the missing clotting factor VIII, leading to less bleeding and potentially fewer complications. Participants in this trial will receive Mim8 through various administration methods, such as the DV3407 pen-injector or an enhanced cartridge, to evaluate its effectiveness and convenience. ^{1 2 6 7 8}

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?

Interventions

• Mim8

Trial Overview

The trial tests long-term use of Mim8, a new medication designed to prevent bleeding in people with haemophilia A by mimicking clotting factor VIII. Participants will receive up to 262 subcutaneous injections over a maximum of 5.5 years or until Mim8 becomes commercially available.

How Is the Trial Designed?

Group I: Arm 3 Experimental Treatment 1 Intervention

In part 1 and 2, participants will receive Mim8 PPX s.c. administration using DV3407 pen-injector.

Group II: Arm 2 Experimental Treatment 1 Intervention

Participants entering from study NN7769-4514, NN7769-4728 and NN7769-4516. In part 1, participants will receive Mim8 PPX s.c. administration using DV3407 pen-injector for 26 weeks. In part 2, participants will receive Mim8 PPX s.c. administration using DV3407 pen-injector.

Group III: Arm 1 Experimental Treatment 1 Intervention

Participants entering from the multiple ascending dose (MAD) part of study NN7769-4513. In part 1, participants will receive Mim8 prophylaxis (PPX) subcutaneous (s.c.) administration using enhanced cartridge for 26 weeks. In part 2, participants will receive Mim8 PPX s.c. administration using enhanced cartridge or DV3407 pen-injector once it is approved.
