Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency
5.1. Pyruvate Kinase Deficiency Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PK deficiency) is a glycolytic enzymopathy that results in life-long, nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia. It is an autosomal recessive disease with a variable clinical presentation, ranging from mild to life-threatening, which can be associated with severe, debil...

Proposed Mechanism of Action of AG-348
5.2.1. Proposed Mechanism of Action of AG-348 AG-348 is a potent, broad-spectrum activator of PKR, 1 of 4 pyruvate kinase isoenzymes expressed in human tissues from 2 separate genes. Both PKR and the liver-specific form of pyruvate kinase (PKL) are splice isoforms of the PKLR gene, while pyruvate kinase muscle isozyme ...

7.1
Study Design Overview
7.1. Study Design Overview This is a multicenter, open-label, extension study to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of treatment with AG-348 in subjects who were previously enrolled in Study AG348-C-006 or Study AG348-C-007. Subjects will be assigned to 1 of the following 3 cohorts, depending on ...

Cohort 1
7.1.1. Cohort 1 Cohort 1 will consist of subjects who received placebo in Study AG348-C-006 and meet the eligibility criteria of this extension study. The first visit of this extension study should coincide with the last visit of Study AG348-C-006. After completion of all scheduled assessments at the subject's last vis...

Screening Period
7.2.1. Screening Period A subject's screening during this extension study should coincide with his/her last visit of their antecedent study (ie, Study AG348-C-006 or Study AG348-C-007). Assessments that overlap between the last visit of the antecedent study and screening of this extension study only need to be performe...

Dose Optimization Period (Cohort 1 Only)
7.2.2. Dose Optimization Period (Cohort 1 Only) The Dose Optimization and Fixed Dose Periods of Cohort 1 will replicate the Dose Optimization and Fixed Dose Periods of Study AG348-C-006 in terms of frequency of assessments (Table 4) and dosing schema (Figure 3). Figure 3: Cohort 1 Dosing Schema for the First 24 Weeks, ...

Fixed Dose Period (Cohort 1 Only)
7.2.3. Fixed Dose Period (Cohort 1 Only) The Fixed Dose Period is a 12-week period after the Week 12 Visit through Week 24. After the Dose Optimization Period, each subject will remain on his/her individually optimized dose and enter the Fixed Dose Period. For the purposes of dosing during the Fixed Dose Period, the do...

Continued Treatment Period
7.2.4. Continued Treatment Period After the Week 24 Visit, subjects in Cohort 1 who, in the opinion of the Investigator, have demonstrated clinical benefit from AG-348 treatment will begin the Continued Treatment Period. During this period, they will continue the AG-348 dose regimen they were receiving at the Week 24 V...

Discontinuation and Safety Follow-up
7.2.5. Discontinuation and Safety Follow-up All subjects who interrupt or discontinue AG-348 at any time should undergo the recommended dose taper (Section 9.3), unless an emergency situation justifies discontinuing or interrupting the study drug abruptly. Whether the dose taper is performed or not, subjects discontinu...
