Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 16 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Established diagnosis of hereditary angioedema (type I or II): markedly decreased C1 inhibitor activity; decreased (type I), normal or elevated (type II) level of C1 inhibitor antigen; decreased level of C4.
  • Age ≥ 16 years
  • Evidence of a peripheral, abdominal, facial, laryngeal or genitourinary attack of angioedema of moderate to severe intensity, starting less then 5 hours before infusion. An attack is defined as moderate if it affects the normal daily activities of the patient in any way. Severe attacks are defined by the inability to perform normal daily activities.
  • Signed informed consent by patient and patient's legal representative if under 18 years old
  • Established diagnosis of acquired angioedema: recurrent attacks of angioedema without urticaria; no family history; decreased functional C1 inhibitor; decreased level of C4.
  • Autoantibodies to C1 inhibitor or decreased C1q or onset after the third decade of life.

  • Evidence of a peripheral, abdominal, facial, laryngeal or genitourinary attack of angioedema of moderate to severe intensity, starting less then 5 hours before infusion.

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics, Clinical Efficacy and Safety of C1 Inhibitor Concentrate (C1-Esteraseremmer-N) for the Treatment of Hereditary (and Acquired) Angioedema

A multicentre study to investigate the 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). Parts B + C will provide data on the efficacy of C1-esteraseremmer-N.

The changes within the manufacturing process of C1-esteraseremmer-N, compared to Cetor® nanofiltration and omission of hepatitis B immunoglobulin, most likely will not affect tolerability. The nanofiltration will provide more safety regarding viruses.

In Part B of the study, 15 attacks of hereditary angioedema will be treated with open-label C1-esteraseremmer-N. Attack severity and duration will be monitored by the subjective experience of the patient himself (which has been shown to be the most sensitive way of monitoring attack severity) and compared with historical (and literature) data. If possible, some attacks of acquired angioedema will also be included.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • C1 inhibitor concentrate (C1-esteraseremmer-N)Drug

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective in this clinical study, in which patients use C1-esteraseremmer-N to treat an attack of angioedema, is to investigate the efficacy and the time-to-effect of C1-esteraseremmer-N.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Secondary objectives are the safety of C1-esteraseremmer-N and the ability of C1-esteraseremmer-N to increase the C1 inhibitor level and activity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing C1 inhibitor concentrate (C1-esteraseremmer-N) in people with Angioedema, run by Prothya Biosolutions at 3 sites in Netherlands.

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 10 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 May 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Netherlands. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 objective in this clinical study, in which patients use C1-esteraseremmer-N to treat an attack of angioedema, is to investigate the efficacy and the time-to-effect of C1-esteraseremmer-N.. 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 4 May 2009.
