Study Summary

This trial is being conducted to demonstrate the efficacy of the study drug and to further describe its safety profile. The trial will enroll participants at multiple centers across the globe. All participants will receive a single dose of the study drug. The trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug over a period of 48 weeks.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for males over 18 with severe or moderately severe hemophilia B, who have had at least 150 days of prior treatment with factor IX protein. Participants must not have a history of gene therapy, active hepatitis B or C infections, uncontrolled HIV, or recent use of experimental drugs.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The HOPE-B trial tests AMT-061 (AAV5-hFIXco-Padua), a gene therapy aiming to treat hemophilia B. It's an open-label study where participants receive one dose intravenously to assess efficacy and safety.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to the infusion process, liver enzyme elevations due to the viral vector used in the treatment, and immune responses against the introduced FIX protein.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: AMT-061Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Single infusion of AMT-061 Subjects will receive a single infusion of AAV5-hFIXco-Padua (AMT- 061) at baseline. After study drug administration (post study drug), subjects will be monitored for tolerance to the study drug and detection of potential immediate AEs at the clinical trial site for a few hours after dosing.
Group II: FIX replacement (Lead-in Period)Active Control1 Intervention
During the lead-in phase, which lasted for a minimum of 26 weeks (i.e., ≥6 months), subjects recorded their use of FIX replacement therapy and bleeding episodes in their dedicated e-diary.
