About this study

Official title: LEVP2006-1 CHANGE 2 Trial (C1-Inhibitor in Hereditary Angioedema Nanofiltration Generation Evaluating Efficacy): Open-Label Safety/Efficacy Repeat Exposure Study of C1INH-nf (Human) in the Treatment of Acute HAE Attacks

The study objective was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of repeat use of C1INH-nf for the treatment of acute HAE attacks.

Read the detailed description

A total of 113 subjects were enrolled in the study. One-hundred-one (101) subjects received C1INH-nf for the treatment of 1 or more HAE attacks and were analyzed for efficacy. The study design also allowed for short-term prophylaxis with C1INH-nf prior to emergency or non-cosmetic surgical or dental procedures, and an additional 12 subjects received C1INH-nf only for this purpose. All 113 subjects were exposed to C1INH-nf and analyzed for safety.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) Attacks Treated With C1INH-nf

    Measured: Duration of the study (2.5 years)

  2. Percent of HAE Attacks With Substantial Relief of the Defining Symptom

    Subjects were to assess their symptoms every 15 minutes up to 4 hours after the initial dose or until substantial relief of the defining symptom was achieved. The conservative analysis defined substantial relief as 3 consecutive assessments of improvement of the defining symptom; any attack that did not have 3 consecutive documented reports of improvement was considered a treatment failure. In the less conservative analysis, attacks also were considered to have responded if clinical improvement of the defining symptom occurred but data were incomplete due to cessation of symptom assessments.

    Measured: Within 4 hours after initial treatment

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Time to Beginning of Substantial Relief of the Defining Symptom

    Subjects were to assess their symptoms every 15 minutes up to 4 hours after the initial dose or until substantial relief of the defining symptom was achieved. Substantial relief was defined as 3 consecutive assessments of improvement of the defining symptom. Beginning of substantial relief was considered the first of the 3 consecutive assessments.

    Measured: Within 4 hours after initial treatment

  2. Time to Beginning of Substantial Relief of the Defining Symptom for Subjects Who Received Multiple Treatments

    For attack number 1, the number of censored observations precluded estimation of the 95% confidence interval (CI) upper bound for median time to event (subjects who did not experience beginning of substantial relief of the defining symptom within 4 hours after initial treatment were included in the analysis as censored observations). Entry of 4.0 hours indicates that data were not estimable (NE); as non-numeric data are not supported by the 95% CI field, entry of the actual result (ie, NE or >4.0) was not possible.

    Measured: Within 4 hours after initial treatment

  3. Antigenic C1 Inhibitor (C1INH) Serum Levels

    Change in antigenic C1INH serum levels from pre-infusion to 1 hour after the initial dose of study drug.

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 1 hour post-infusion

  4. Functional C1INH Serum Levels

    Percent change in functional C1INH serum levels from pre-infusion to 1 hour after the initial dose of study drug. Functional C1INH serum levels are expressed as a percent of total detectable C1INH (ie, functional C1INH/total detectable C1INH).

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 1 hour post-infusion

  5. Complement C4 Serum Levels

    Change in complement C4 serum levels from pre-infusion to 1 hour after the initial dose of study drug.

    Measured: Pre-infusion to 1 hour post-infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing C1 esterase inhibitor [human] (C1INH-nf) in people with Hereditary Angioedema, run by Shire at 30 sites in United States.

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 13 inclusion and 3 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 8 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Jun 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) Attacks Treated With C1INH-nf (time frame: Duration of the study (2.5 years)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00438815, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 8 Jun 2021.
