Review the clinical results

ZYNTEGLO has been studied in two 24-month phase 3 clinical
trials, with an ongoing 13-year long-term follow-up study.1

  • Patients enrolled in the clinical trials had a diagnosis of beta-thalassemia and received regular RBC transfusions (a history of at least 100 mL/kg/year of RBCs or ≥8 transfusions of RBCs per year for the prior 2 years)

*Across clinical trials, patient evaluability for transfusion independence (n=36) was defined as patients who have completed their parent study (ie, 24 months of
follow-up), achieved transfusion independence, or will not achieve transfusion independence in their parent study.

Duration of
Transfusion Independence

100%

ALL PATIENTS WHO ACHIEVED TRANSFUSION INDEPENDENCE MAINTAINED IT WITH DURABLE NORMAL OR NEAR-NORMAL TOTAL Hb LEVELS1
Min, max duration of ongoing transfusion independence of 12.5+, 39.4+ months; median duration of transfusion independence not reached. Median unsupported total Hb was 11.4 g/dL (min, max: 9.5, 14.8) at last follow-up (N=32)

Median total Hb in patients treated with ZYNTEGLO who have achieved transfusion independence4*

This figure is not included in the USPI.

*Bars represent interquartile ranges.
Unsupported total Hb represents those without any pRBC transfusions within 60 days prior to the measurement date.
Transfusion independence defined as weighted average hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL without any pRBC transfusions for ≥12 months.

Data beyond 24 months are from the long-term follow-up study, Study 3 (LTF-303).1

Maximum duration of follow-up was 42 months (N=5), median unsupported total Hb in these
five patients at last follow-up was 13.3 (min, max: 11.1, 13.7) g/dL5

Change in Iron Management

iron chelation

THE MAJORITY OF PATIENTS (20/32) WHO ACHIEVED TRANSFUSION INDEPENDENCE ARE NOT RECEIVING CHELATION AS OF LAST FOLLOW-UP1
Restarting iron chelation after ZYNTEGLO infusion may be necessary and should be based on clinical practice*

The two phase 3 studies are ongoing. All data is as of March 2021.1,2

At last follow up 65% of patients who achieved TI no longer receiving chelation At last follow up 65% of patients who achieved TI no longer receiving chelation

Of those 13 patients

  • 9 did not restart chelation post-ZYNTEGLO infusion
  • 4 restarted and then stopped with a median time from last iron chelation use to last follow-up of 22.7 months (min, max: 7.1, 23.4)

Of the 20 patients who achieved transfusion independence, 7 patients (35.0%) received phlebotomy to remove iron1

At last follow up 58% of patients who achieved TI no longer receiving chelation At last follow up 58% of patients who achieved TI no longer receiving chelation

Of those 7 patients

  • 3 did not restart chelation post-ZYNTEGLO infusion
  • 4 restarted and then stopped with a median time from last iron chelation use to last follow-up of 7.2 months (min, max: 6.0, 21.4)

Of the 12 patients who achieved transfusion independence, 1 patient (8%) received phlebotomy to remove iron 

*Prior to initiation of conditioning for ZYNTEGLO, iron removal therapies should be stopped for at least 7 days. In the clinical studies, iron removal therapy after
ZYNTEGLO infusion was managed at physician discretion.
