Active clinical trials for "Angioedema"

The main aim of this study is to learn about the safety profile of lanadelumab in teenagers and adults with hereditary angioedema (HAE) in Argentina as part of routine routine practice. This study is about collecting data only. The study sponsor will not be involved in how participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record what happens during the study. The study will collect data from the participant's medical records. Participants do not need to visit their doctor in addition to their normal visits.

The purpose of this study is To describe patient characteristics and drug usage among children that are prescribed esomeprazole for the first time and to compare them with patients who are prescribed other proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) or H2-receptor antagonists for the first time. To ascertain all incident hospitalized cases of angioneurotic oedema, pneumonia, gastroenteritis, failure to thrive, convulsions/seizures, acute interstitial nephritis and thrombocytopenia among new users in the three cohorts of esomeprazole, other PPIs and H2-receptor antagonists.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the formation of antibodies, the occurence of allergic reactions, and the risk of hypercoagulability and hypocoagulability in patients treated with KALBITOR (ecallantide).

In emergency room, this is crucial to diagnose an acute attack of hereditary angioedema (HAE) to quickly provide the efficient treatment. Currently, there is no specific biomarker for acute attack of bradykinin-mediated angioedema to help clinicians for patient care. However, previous works are carried out for that purpose. All the potential candidate biomarkers must be validated in prospective studies to estimate their specificity and sensitivity values, and to understand their potential utility in patient care. The main goal of this clinical trial is to estimate the diagnostic value of VE-cadherin in pediatric population, for the differential diagnosis between HAE crisis and angioedema resulting of mast cell activation crisis (the main differential diagnosis of HAE).

An international, multicenter, epidemiological, observational study investigating the prevalence of Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) disease among participants with recurrent episodes of abdominal pain of no obvious etiology.

Cow milk allergy is one of the most frequent food allergy among children. Cow milk protein's avoidance is needed until spontaneous recovery during the two first years of life. A atypical clinical form with angio-oedema of hands and feet which is associated with high rate of lactoserum's IgE might be a hope of an earlier recovery.

This study is about teenagers and adults with hereditary angioedema (HAE) type I and type II. In this study, the burden of illness means the impact of HAE in terms of long-term health outcomes and the financial cost. The main aims of this study are as follows: to learn how often, how severe and where on the body HAE attacks occur. to describe how HAE prophylaxis and on-demand medicines are prescribed and used. (Prophylaxis medicines prevent a bleed from happening and on-demand medicines treat a bleed when it occurs.) This study is about collecting data only; participants will not receive treatment as part of this study. Existing data available in the participant's medical records will be collected. Participants will be asked to complete an electronic questionnaire either on a website or by using an app on their mobile phone; data from this questionnaire will also be collected. Participants do not need to visit their doctor in addition to their normal visits.

The main aim of this study is to compare the HAE attack rate before and after lanadelumab treatment was started in persons with Hereditary Angioedeme Type I or II. Data from participants will be collected for at least 24 months. Participants will report information in a smartphone application at study start and then every 3 months until the study ends; data will also be collected by the study doctor during routine clinic visits.

Diagnosis of angioedema (AE) is difficult especially in emergency room. Two forms should be evoked: histaminic AE (allergic or not, which represent 95% of cases) and bradykinic AE (hereditary or acquired deficiency, with or without C1 Inhibitor) rarer but with more severe prognosis. The distinction is based on clinical features (spontaneous crisis duration, presence of concomitant hives, atopic history...). Sometimes it could be difficult to make the difference. Nowadays, there is no biological marker of the crisis. The search for biomarkers could improve the diagnostic and therapeutic management of AE. Previous work has identified targets: D-dimer, C4, and VE-cadherin. We wanted to know the sensitivity and specificity of these markers. We conducted a prospective study evaluating the D-dimer assays, complement and VE-cadherin during an episode of AE. Three groups of patients were tested: bradykinic AE (peripheral or abdominal attacks), histaminic AE, and abdominal pain (non-bradykinic and non-histaminic etiology) at the time (day 0) and at distance from the crisis (D7).

Specific treatments for angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I) and angiotensin-receptor-blocker (ARB)-induced angioedema exist. Early access to these treatments is challenging because they are expensive and have short shelf lives making it illusory that all emergency department (ED) stock them. The aim of this retrospective study was to define, for each patient with a confirmed ACE-I or ARB-induced angioedema, at which step of the care, the specific treatment was administered. The second objective was to analyse the availability of these treatment in the area around Lyon, France and the factors that may influence it.
