Clinical Trial/Study Information
Trial Name: ENERGIZE-T
Code: NCT04770779
Phase: 3
Eligible patient diagnosis: TDT (α- or β- thalassaemia)

Scope of the Study / Aim: Decrease transfusion needs and by how much
Update: 19 December 2024
Based on data observed in both the Phase 3 ENERGIZE and ENERGIZE-T studies, Agios filed regulatory applications for mitapivat for the treatment of adult patients with non-transfusion-dependent and transfusion-dependent alpha- or beta-thalassaemia with the U.S., European Union, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates health authorities.
The Phase 3 ENERGIZE and ENERGIZE-T trials enrolled a total of 452 patients reflective of the real-world thalassemia population. The results demonstrated that mitapivat improves hemolytic anaemia and quality-of-life related measures, as measured by significant reductions in transfusion burden and significant improvements in hemoglobin and fatigue.
New data
- Data presented at the 66th ASH Annual Congress (7 – 10 December 2024) in San Diego (USA) showed that:
- Ex vivo treatment with mitapivat in 25 non-transfusion dependent thalassaemia patients (β-thal/HbE disease) in Thailand corresponded to reduced haemolysis and intracellular reactive oxygen species in RBCs thus corroborating clinical trial findings.

Update: 30 September 2024
Submission to FDA for Supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) anticipated by the end of 2024. Standard review time is 10 months, although Priority Review may reduce this to between 8 – 6 months.
Update: 30 June 2024
- Data presented at the 29th EHA Annual Congress (13 – 16 June 2024) in Madrid (Spain) showed that:
– Mitapivat increased Hb in 42.3% of NTDT (α- and β-thalassaemia) patients, improving fatigue and walking capacity. - FDA, EMA and GCC regulatory approval for TDT and NTDT will filed by the end of 2024.

ENERGIZE: A Global Phase 3 Study of Mitapivat Demonstrating Efficacy and Safety in Adults with alpha- or beta-Non-Transfusion-Dependent Thalassaemia
Improvements in Fatigue and 6-minute Walk Test in Adults with alpha- or beta-Non-Transfusion-Dependent Thalassaemia: The Phase 3 ENERGIZE Trial of Mitapivat
Update: 31 March 2024
- The results of the Phase 3 ENERGIZE study of mitapivat in adults with non-transfusion-dependent (NTD) alpha- or beta-thalassemia showed that the study achieved its primary endpoint of hemoglobin response. The results in detail:
- 194 patients were enrolled in the study (130 randomized to mitapivat 100 mg twice-daily (BID) and 64 randomized to matched placebo).
- Hemoglobin response was defined as an increase of ≥1 g/dL in average hemoglobin concentrations from Week 12 through Week 24 compared with baseline.
- Treatment with mitapivat demonstrated a statistically significant increase compared to placebo.
- 3% of patients in the mitapivat arm achieved a hemoglobin response, compared to 1.6% of patients in the placebo arm (2-sided p<0.0001).
- Overall, during the 24-week double-blind period, incidence of adverse events was similar across mitapivat and placebo arms. Four (3.1%) subjects in the mitapivat arm experienced adverse events (AEs) leading to discontinuation; there were no AEs leading to discontinuation in the placebo arm.
- FDA regulatory approval for TDT and NTDT will filed by the end of 2024.
