About this trial

HAE is a rare condition. It causes sudden swelling under the skin and inside the body, like in the belly, throat, or genitals. This swelling happens because of a temporary leak in blood vessels but does not cause itching or hives. HAE is classified based on the amount of a protein in the blood called C1 inhibitor (C1-INH): HAE with normal C1-INH levels and HAE with limited or insufficient C1-INH levels (C1-INH deficiency). This study will concentrate on children with HAE C1-INH deficiency who have received Takhzyro (Lanadelumab) as prophylactic treatment.

The main goal of the study is to assess how well lanadelumab works in children with HAE-C1INH deficiency in everyday life. This will be measured by checking how long children who receive lanadelumab will be free of HAE attacks.

Other goals are to understand how children with HAE-C1INH deficiency are being treated with lanadelumab, how well the treatment works for them, how safe it is and how often these children need to use healthcare services (like doctor visits, hospital stays, etc.) because of their condition.

The study will only look at data already existing in the participants' medical records. No treatment will be given as part of the study.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Percentage of Participants who are Free of HAE Attacks

Percentage of participants who are free of HAE attacks will be reported. A HAE attack is defined as the symptoms or signs consistent with an attack in at least 1 of the following locations: peripheral angioedema (cutaneous swelling involving an extremity, the face, neck, torso, and/or genitourinary region), abdominal angioedema (abdominal pain, with or without abdominal distention, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea), laryngeal angioedema (stridor, dyspnea, difficulty speaking, difficulty swallowing, throat tightening, or swelling of the tongue, palate, uvula, or larynx).

Time frame
Up to 13 months

Secondary outcomes

1

HAE Attack Rate of Participants

Time frame
Up to 13 months
2

HAE Attack-free Rate of Participants Relative to Prior Treatment

Time frame
Up to 13 months
3

Association Between Covariates of Interest and Attack Free Rate

Association between covariates of interest (e.g., age, sex, family history) and attack-free rate will be determined. Associations between attack free rate and covariates of interest will be modelled, using generalized linear models.

Time frame
Up to 13 months
4

Number of Participants With HAE Attack Based on Attack Severity

Number of participants with HAE attack based on attack severity (mild, moderate, severe, unknown) will be reported.

Time frame
Up to 13 months
