Phase 2 Study of the Factor XI Antisense Inhibitor IONIS-FXIRx in Patients With ESRD
Bibliographic record
Abstract
IntroductionPatients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis (HD) have an increased risk of thrombotic events and bleeding. Antisense reduction of factor XI (FXI) with IONIS-FXIRx is a novel strategy that may safely reduce the risk of thrombotic events.MethodsThis multicenter study enrolled 49 patients receiving HD in 2 parts. First, 6 participants (pharmacokinetics [PK] cohort) received 1 open-label 300 mg dose of IONIS-FXIRx both before and after HD. Subsequently, 43 participants were treated in a double-blind, randomized design with 200 mg or 300 mg IONIS-FXIRx or placebo for 12 weeks. The PK, pharmacodynamics (PD), and adverse events of IONIS-FXIRx were evaluated (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02553889).ResultsThe PK of IONIS-FXIRx was consistent with previous studies and similar whether injected before or after HD. No accumulation of IONIS-FXIRx was observed after repeat administration. By day 85, mean levels of FXI activity fell 56.0% in the 200 mg group, 70.7% in the 300 mg group, and 3.9% in the placebo group compared with baseline. FXI antigen levels paralleled FXI activity. Dose-dependent prolongation of activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) was observed, with no changes in international normalized ratio (INR). IONIS-FXIRx was not associated with drug-related serious adverse events. In the randomized phase of the study, major bleeding events occurred in 0 (0.0%; 200 mg), 1 (6.7%; 300 mg), and 1 (7.7%; placebo) patients and were not considered related to treatment.ConclusionIONIS-FXIRx reduced FXI activity in patients with ESRD receiving HD. Further studies are needed to determine the benefit-risk profile of FXI as a therapeutic target for patients who require HD.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
