| Abstract | Mitapivat, a pyruvate kinase (PK) activator, shows great potential as a sickle cell disease (SCD)- modifying therapy. Safety and efficacy of mitapivat as a long-term maintenance therapy is currently being evaluated in two open-label studies. Here we apply a comprehensive multi-omics approach to investigate the impact of activating PK on red blood cells (RBCs) from 15 SCD patients. HbSS patients were enrolled in one of the open label, extended studies (NCT04610866). Leuko-depleted RBCs obtained from fresh whole blood at baseline (visit 1, V1), prior to drug initiation and longitudinal time points over the course of the study were processed for multiomics through a stepwise extraction of metabolites, lipids and proteins. Mitapivat therapy had significant effects on the metabolome, lipidome and proteome of SCD RBCs. Mitapivat decreased 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (DPG) levels, increased adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels, and improved hematologic and sickling parameters in patients with SCD. Agreement between omics measurements and clinical measurements confirmed the specificity of mitapivat on targeting late glycolysis, with glycolytic metabolites ranking as the top correlates to parameters of hemoglobin S (HbS) oxygen affinity (p50) and sickling kinetics (t50) during treatment. Mitapivat markedly reduced levels of proteins of mitochondrial origin within 2 weeks of initiation of drug treatment, with minimal changes in the reticulocyte counts. The first six months of treatment also witnessed transient elevation of lysophosphatidylcholines and oxylipins with depletion in free fatty acids, suggestive of an effect on membrane lipid remodeling. Multi-omics analysis of RBCs identified benefits for glycolysis, as well as activation of the Lands cycle. |
