Active clinical trials for "Angioedema"

The primary objective of this study is: assess the safety and tolerability of ecallantide in paediatric patients for acute attacks of HAE The secondary objectives are: evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of ecallantide in paediatric patients treated for acute attacks of HAE assess the efficacy of ecallantide in paediatric patients treated for moderate to severe acute attacks of HAE

A multicentre study to investigate pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy and safety of nanofiltered Cetor® (called C1-esteraseremmer-N during the development phase) for the treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE) will be performed. This study KB2003.01 consists of three parts, part A pharmacokinetics (phase II), part B treatment of attacks of angioedema (phase III) and part C prophylactic use of C1 inhibitor (phase III). Part B + C will provide data on the efficacy of C1-esteraseremmer-N. The changes in the manufacturing process of C1-esteraseremmer-N, compared to Cetor® (the currently marketed C1-inhibitor product), nanofiltration and omission of hepatitis B immunoglobulin, most likely will not affect tolerability. The nanofiltration will provide more safety regarding viruses. In part A, the pharmacokinetics of C1-esteraseremmer-N in patients with hereditary angioedema will be compared with the current registered product, Cetor®, in a randomised, blinded cross-over design. This study has to provide evidence that changes in the manufacturing process have not affected pharmacokinetics. In addition, this study provides data on safety of C1-esteraseremmer-N.

Bradykinin-mediated angioedema is a rare and disabling disease, characterized by the occurrence of attacks marked by localized swelling of skin, but also of the airways, which can be life-threatening. The unpredictable nature of attacks is a key feature of angioedema, placing patients under constant threat. It seems that there are different patterns of yearly distribution for these attacks, but this is poorly described in the literature. The objectives of the study are to establish different rhythmicity profiles of patients according to the frequency of the attacks; and to identify factors potentially triggering the attacks. For this purpose, patients with bradykinin-mediated angioedema will be monitored daily using a smartphone application. Each day, the application will ask the patient if he or she is having an attack and, if so, the characteristics of the attack and the events preceding it

This project aims to analyse in an unbiased way the existence of genetic variants that contribute to explaining and predicting the differences in clinical expression between patients with HAE.

It is an open-label dose-escalating study in sequential cohorts to assess safety and pharmacokinetics of GNR-038.

Patients with chronic urticaria undertake a five week elimination diet (pseudoallergen free diet). The efficacy of the diet will be determined by symptom score, by the use of rescue medication (oral antihistamines and glucocorticosteroids) and by a Quality of Life Questionnaire on week 0 and week 5. All patients with sufficient response (regarding the urticaria score) enter a second dietary part over six weeks, whereas a provocation diet is carried out. Each diet week a choice of pseudoallergen rich food is added, sorted by the type of pseudoallergens (e.g. biogenic amines, organic acids, flavours, additives). This study is conducted to investigate if the provocation diet could be a new diagnostic intervention to elucidate clinical relevant pseudoallergens.

The study objective was to describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of one or two doses of C1 esterase inhibitor (C1INH-nf) in hereditary angioedema (HAE) subjects who were not experiencing an HAE attack.

The objectives of the study are to: Evaluate the safety and tolerability of subcutaneously administered CINRYZE with recombinant human hyaluronidase (rHuPH20) in subjects with hereditary angioedema (HAE) who previously participated in CINRYZE Study 0624-200 (NCT01095497) Characterize the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of subcutaneously administered CINRYZE with rHuPH20 Assess the immunogenicity of CINRYZE following subcutaneous (SC) administration of CINRYZE with rHuPH20

The objectives of the study are to: Evaluate the safety and tolerability of CINRYZE administered by subcutaneous injection in subjects with hereditary angioedema Characterize the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CINRYZE administered by subcutaneous injection Assess the immunogenicity of CINRYZE following subcutaneous administration

The study is performed to investigate the subcutaneous (s.c.) versus intravenous (i.v.) administration of Berinert P in patients with hereditary angioedema (HAE) to establish a second administration mode in cases where i.v. access is not suitable. The study is planned as a single centre, randomized, open-label, cross-over pharmacokinetic study. Subjects will either start with s.c. or i.v. pasteurised C1-Inhibitor concentrate (Berinert P) and than switch to the treatment not administered before.
