A randomized, placebo-controlled study of givosiran in patients with acute hepatic porphyrias (ENVISION): Final (36-month) analysis of the Taiwan Cohort
Background/purpose: Acute hepatic porphyrias (AHP) are rare genetic disorders associated with acute neurovisceral attacks and chronic symptoms. This analysis was conducted to examine the long-term efficacy and safety of givosiran in Taiwanese participants in the ENVISION study (NCT03338816). Methods: Patients (age ≥12 years) with AHP and recurrent attacks were randomized to receive givosiran 2.5 mg/kg or placebo for 6 months during the double-blind period. Patients then switched from placebo to givosiran (placebo crossover group) or continued taking givosiran (continuous givosiran group) during a 30-month open-label extension period. The total study duration was 36 months. An analysis was conducted that included patients enrolled in Taiwan (N = 7). Results: During the double-blind period and open-label extension period, the median annualized attack rates were 0.0 and 0.0, respectively, in the continuous givosiran group (n = 5) and 15.1 and 4.6, respectively, in the placebo crossover group (n = 2; 70 % decrease). Median annualized days of hemin use in the double-blind period and open-label extension period were 0.0 and 0.0, respectively, in the continuous givosiran group, and 23.8 and 5.0, respectively, in the placebo crossover group (79 % decrease). EQ-5D VAS scores remained relatively stable in both groups, and PPEQ responses indicated improved functioning and satisfaction in both groups. Delta-aminolevulinic acid and porphobilinogen levels remained low with long-term givosiran treatment. Serious adverse events were reported by 3 patients (43 %). Conclusion: Long-term efficacy and safety results in the Taiwan cohort are consistent with those in the global cohort.
