About this study

To assess the efficacy of recombinant human C1-esterase inhibitor in the management of HAE prodrome for preventing the progression from prodrome to an acute angioedema attacks. Subjects will either receive Ruconest after the first 2 prodromes or during the last 2 prodromes. 5 clinic visits will occur within 24 hours of a prodrome. Subjects will complete prodrome severity and angioedema attack diaries

Read the detailed description

After screening, subjects will be followed in the study for four consecutive prodromes. For prodromes designed to be treated with Ruconest, the drug will be administered within 12 hours of prodromal onset and prior to the onset of objective selling. Ruconset will be self-administered at home or by a healthcare professional at the recommended dose of 50 IU/kg body weight with maximum dose of 4200 IU as a slow IV injection over 5 minutes Subjects will be randomized into two arms after enrollment. Subjects in Arm A receives Ruconest after 1st and 2nd prodrome and no Ruconest after 3rd and 4th prodromes. Subjects in Arm B receive no Ruconest after 1st and 2nd prodrome and Ruconest after 3rd and 4th prodromes.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint was the difference in response rates in preventing HAE attacks between Conestat Alfa®-treated vs. untreated HAE prodrome events.

    A mixed model for repeated measures was used to determine the statistical significance of Conestat Alfa®'s clinical efficacy for treating the HAE prodrome versus the acute attack.

    Measured: up to 12 months from start of study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ruconest in people with Hereditary Angioedema, run by Bernstein Clinical Research Center at 2 sites 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 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

The primary endpoint was the difference in response rates in preventing HAE attacks between Conestat Alfa®-treated vs. untreated HAE prodrome events. (time frame: up to 12 months from start of study). 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 15 Nov 2024.
