  • 2 through 15 years of age, inclusive (ie, from the second birthday through the day prior to the sixteenth birthday) at the time of the subject's first attack.
  • Documented diagnosis of HAE type I or II. Diagnosis must be confirmed by a documented immunogenic (below the lower limit of normal) and/or functional (< 50% of normal levels) C1- Inhibitor deficiency. Diagnosis may be on the basis of historic data or by diagnostic testing conducted at the time of screening.
  • Informed consent (and subject assent as appropriate) signed by the subject's parent(s) or legal guardian(s).

  • Participation in another clinical study during the 30 days prior to treatment
  • Any known factor/disease that might interfere with the treatment compliance, study conduct, or result interpretation
  • Congenital or acquired cardiac anomalies that interfere significantly with cardiac function.

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Open-Label Study to Assess the Tolerability and Safety of a Single, Subcutaneous Administration of Ecallantide in Children and Adolescents With Hereditary Angioedema

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single Subcutaneous (SC) dose of Ecallantide in children and adolescents with Hereditary Angioedema (HAE).

Read the detailed description

This pilot study is an open-label, non-randomized, single-arm study to evaluate the tolerability and safety of a single SC administration of ecallantide in up to approximately 10 pediatric subjects with HAE during an initial acute attack. The study is planned to enroll subjects 2 through 15 years of age who present with an acute cutaneous, abdominal, or laryngeal HAE attack. No more than 3 study sites will be included until a goal of 10 patients is achieved.

After treatment for an initial attack, one additional open label treatment with ecallantide will be offered to subjects contingent upon having been treated previously and presenting with a subsequent acute cutaneous, abdominal, or laryngeal attack of HAE at least 7 days after initial treatment. Open-label treatment for a second HAE attack will continue until 10 patients have been treated for an initial attack. Safety evaluations will be performed at each subsequent ecallantide-treated attack as for the initial treated attack

EcallantideExperimentalStudy Medication, Dose, and Mode of Administration: Single dose of ecallantide subcutaneous dosing: * Age less than 10: Weight <25 Kg: 10mg subcutaneously at one site; 25-50kg: 20mg subcutaneously, 10mg per site for 2 separate sites; >50 kg 30mg subcutaneously, 10mg per site for 3 separate sites.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of time to symptomatic improvement from acute attacks of hereditary angioedema

    Time to symptom relief. Time to minimal symptoms. An improvement assessment will also be performed at each of the following timepoints: pre -treatment, every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours and then hourly through discharge and at the 28 day clinic visit.

    Incidence of need for rescue medication. Incidence of worsening despite use of ecallantide.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Partcipants with Adverse Events

    Study Partcipants will be monitored for adverse events, changes in laboratory values, physical exam, vital sign changes and ECG changes. Vital signs, including body temperature, heart rate and sitting blood pressure, will be assessed at screening, Pre-treatment, every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours and then hourly through discharge and at the 28 day clinic visit.

    Measured: 28 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ecallantide subcutaneous dosing in people with Hereditary Angioedema Types I and II, run by NYU Langone Health at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 8 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Measurement of time to symptomatic improvement from acute attacks of hereditary angioedema (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 31 Mar 2023.
