About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, 3-Period Crossover Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Recombinant Human C1 Inhibitor in the Prophylaxis of Angioedema Attacks in Patients With Hereditary Angioedema (HAE)

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

Read the 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.

Being tested
Recombinant human C1 inhibitor, Placebo
Keywords
HAE, Hereditary Angioedema, Prophylaxis

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of HAE Attacks

    Average number of HAE attacks normalized to a 28 day period

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

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

    Measured: 20 weeks

  2. 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

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Recombinant human C1 inhibitor in people with Hereditary Angioedema, run by Pharming Technologies B.V. at 10 sites in 7 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 8 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States, Canada, Czechia, Italy, North Macedonia and 2 more countries. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Dec 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of HAE Attacks (time frame: 28 days). 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 NCT02247739, 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 8 Dec 2017.
