Active clinical trials for "Angioedema"

This is a multicenter study recruiting patients with angioedema induced by ACEI. Open-label treatment with subcutaneous Icatibant compared to a historic group of 47 patients with ACE inhibitor induced angioedema which the investigators have been previously treated in the investigators centers with current "standard" therapy (250 mg methylprednisolon and 2 mg clemastine). In cases with fast progression of edema after application the study-drug, a second application with icatibant could be necessary. Rescue medication and intervention.

This study is being conducted to confirm the efficacy, safety, and immunogenicity of recombinant human C1 inhibitor (rhC1INH) at a dose of 50 U/kg when used for the treatment of acute angioedema attacks in Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) patients.

The purpose of this multi-center study is to explore the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of recombinant human C1 inhibitor in the treatment of acute attacks in patients with hereditary angioedema.

Hereditary angioedema ("HAE") is a genetic disorder characterized by sudden recurrent attacks of local swelling (angioedema). These attacks are often painful and disabling, and, in some cases, life-threatening. "HAE" is caused by mutations in the "C1INH" gene that lead to a decrease in the blood level of functional "C1INH". This multi-center study was designed to assess the safety and tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of recombinant human C1 inhibitor ("rhC1INH") in the treatment of acute hereditary angioedema attacks.

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the safety and efficacy of inhaled and subcutaneously administered heparin in the treatment of hereditary angioedema.

This study evaluates the efficacy of orally administered deucrictibant for the acute treatment of attacks in patients with hereditary angioedema (HAE). Eligible subjects are randomized to one of three single doses of deucrictibant and placebo. The study will compare symptom relief (skin pain, skin swelling, abdominal pain) during HAE attacks and safety of each dose of deucrictibant with placebo.

The expanded access program allows people to gain access to an unlicensed treatment on compassionate grounds. Lanadelumab, also known as TAK-743, is a medicine to help prevent hereditary angioedema attacks. Lanadelumab is not yet licensed for use in Japan. The main aim of this study is to allow Japanese teenagers and adults with type I or type II hereditary angioedema to be treated with lanadelumab, through the expanded access program in Japan. Participants can either have taken part in the previous study SHP643-302 or can be new participants. Participants just completing study SHP643-302 who reach the criteria can automatically take part in this study. However, for new participants, the study doctor will check who can take part at the first study visit. For those who can take part, new participants will receive injections of lanadelumab just under the skin. Eventually, after training, some of these will be able to inject themselves with lanadelumab in the same way. Participants who injected themselves with lanadelumab in study SHP643-302 can continue to do so during this study. The study doctors will decide if each participant will be treated with lanadelumab every 2 weeks or every 4 weeks. Treatment with lanadelumab will continue until lanadelumab is commercially available in Japan or the sponsor (Takeda) stops the study. Participants can visit the clinic during treatment if needed. If treatment continues after 6 months, participants will visit the clinic every 12 weeks for a check-up. This will include noting any hereditary angioedema attacks and side effects from the treatment. After 7 months of treatment, the study staff will check-up with each participant every 2 weeks by telephone. After treatment has finished, participants will visit the clinic for a final-check-up 4 weeks later.

This is a 3 part phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study of the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of KVD824 following administration of single and multiple ascending oral doses; followed by a crossover food effect sub-study in healthy male volunteers.

This open-label study is being conducted to confirm the safety, pharmacokinetic profile and efficacy of Ruconest at a dose of 50 U/kg when used for the treatment of acute angioedema attacks in patients, from 2 up to and including 13 years of age.

This study will assess the impact of omalizumab on the quality of life improvement when added to the standard therapy in refractory patients suffering from chronic spontaneous urticaria and angioedema.
