Brief summary

Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of recombinant human C1 inhibitor (rhC1INH) in the prophylaxis of angioedema attacks in patients with HAE Secondary Objective: To evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of recombinant human C1 inhibitor (rhC1INH) in the prophylaxis of angioedema attacks in patients with HAE

Detailed description

Study Design: This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 3-period crossover study of rhC1INH in prophylaxis of angioedema attacks in patients with HAE. Medical screening (clinical and laboratory parameters) will be performed and patient medical history specific to HAE attacks will be collected to assess eligibility. Each patient will receive three 4 week periods of treatment twice weekly.

Inclusion criteria

Patients fulfilling the following criteria at Screening are eligible for participation in the study: 1. Age 13 years or older 2. Laboratory confirmed diagnosis of HAE 3. A history of frequent HAE attacks (at least 4 attacks per month across a minimum of 3 consecutive months). 4. Female patients of childbearing potential who are sexually active must be willing to use an acceptable form of contraception. 5. Provided written informed consent (and written assent for minors) 6. Willingness and ability to comply with all protocol procedures

Exclusion criteria

Patients who meet any of the following criteria at Screening are to be excluded from study participation: 1. Patients with medical history of allergy to rabbits or rabbit-derived products (including rhC1INH) 2. Diagnosis of acquired angioedema (AAE) 3. Patients who are pregnant, or breastfeeding, or are currently intending to become pregnant 4. Treatment with any investigational drug in the past 30 days 5. Patients with any condition or treatment that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might interfere with the evaluation of study objectives 6. Patients currently treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors

Outcome results

Primary

Number of HAE Attacks

Average number of HAE attacks normalized to a 28 day period

Time frame: 28 days

Population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population: All patients who were randomized into one of the treatment sequences. The statistical analyses are based on the treatments to which the patient was randomized to receive during that treatment period.

ArmMeasureValue (MEAN)
rhC1INH Twice WeeklyNumber of HAE Attacks2.74 attacks
rhC1INH Once WeeklyNumber of HAE Attacks4.36 attacks
Placebo (Saline) Twice WeeklyNumber of HAE Attacks7.18 attacks
Secondary

Number of Participants With Adverse Events

Number of participants that experienced Treatment Emergent Adverse Events observed in safety population

Time frame: 20 weeks

Population: Safety Population: All patients who received at least a partial injection of study drug. The statistical analyses are based on the actual treatment the patient received.

Percentage of Participants Achieving at Least 50% Reduction in Number of Attacks

Percentage of participants achieving at least 50% reduction in the number of attacks normalized to a 28-day period as compared to the placebo treatment period

Time frame: 28 days

Population: Both the rhC1INH twice weekly treatments and the rhC1INH once weekly treatment periods are compared to the placebo treatment for the safety population. One subject withdrew before receiving any treatment and is excluded from the analysis.

Immunogenicity

Number of participants analyzed for neutralizing C1INH-specific antibodies and neutralizing rhC1INH-specific antibodies after confirmed anti-C1INH and anti rhC1INH IgM or IgG antibodies

Time frame: 20 weeks

Population: Participants analyzed for Neutralizing antibodies after confirmed testing of anti-C1INH and anti rhC1INH IgM or IgG antibodies. Count of participants displays the number of positives.
