What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of attacks treated with successful outcome

    successful outcome is defined as attack resolution begun within 4 hrs after treatment and maintained for 24 hours

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Proportion of attacks with a partial response

    partial response is defined as an initial response to dosing followed by a relapse within 4 to 24 hours

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Proportion of patients who respond to a 2nd dose of ecallantide after an initial, partial response

    Measured: 24 hours

  2. Time to resolution onset of each acute attack, as determined by patient report

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing DX-88 (ecallantide) in people with Hereditary Angioedema (HAE), run by Shire.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of attacks treated with successful outcome (time frame: 24 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01826916, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 May 2021.
