About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Cross-over, Dose-ranging Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Safety of the Subcutaneous Administration of a Human Plasma-derived C1-esterase Inhibitor in Subjects With Hereditary Angioedema

The aim of the study is to assess what happens to C1-esterase inhibitor that is administered under the skin of subjects with hereditary angioedema. Three different dosing regimens of C1-esterase inhibitor will be assessed. Each subject will be assigned to receive 2 of the 3 dosing regimens, each for 4 weeks. The activity and concentration of C1-esterase inhibitor in the blood will be measured during each 4-week period. The study will also examine how well C1-esterase inhibitor administered under the skin is tolerated by the subjects.

Being tested
C1-esterase inhibitor - single intravenous dose, C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous low dose, C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous medium dose, C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous high dose
Medical subject headings
Hereditary Angioedema Types I and II

What participants receive

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

  • C1-esterase inhibitor - single intravenous doseBiological

    A single intravenous dose of C1-esterase inhibitor (Berinert) at 20 units per kg body weight will be administered to all subjects prior to receiving the first dose of subcutaneous C1-esterase inhibitor.

  • C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous low doseBiological

    A low dose of C1-esterase inhibitor will be administered subcutaneously twice a week for four weeks.

  • C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous medium doseBiological

    A medium dose of C1-esterase inhibitor will be administered subcutaneously twice a week for four weeks.

  • C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous high doseBiological

    A high dose of C1-esterase inhibitor will administered subcutaneously twice a week for four weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Modeled C1-esterase Inhibitor Functional Activity Trough Level

    Mean trough C1-esterase inhibitor functional activity of the low, medium and high subcutaneous dose regimens, based on modeling and simulation

    Measured: at the fourth week of each dosing regimen

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. As-observed C1-esterase Inhibitor Functional Activity Trough Level

    Mean trough C1-esterase inhibitor functional activity of the low, medium and high subcutaneous dose regimens

    Measured: during the last week of 4-week dose regimen

  2. C1-esterase Inhibitor Concentration Trough Level

    Mean trough C1-esterase inhibitor concentration of the low, medium and high subcutaneous dose regimens

    Measured: during the last week of 4-week dose regimen

  3. C4 Concentration Trough Level

    Mean trough C4 concentration of the low, medium and high subcutaneous dose regimens

    Measured: during the last week of 4-week dose regimen

  4. Change From Baseline in C1-esterase Inhibitor Functional Activity

    Mean change from baseline of C1-esterase inhibitor functional activity of the low, medium and high subcutaneous dose regimens

    Measured: Baseline and during the last week of 4-week dose regimen

  5. Change From Baseline in C1-esterase Inhibitor Concentration

    Mean change from baseline of C1-esterase inhibitor concentration of the low, medium and high subcutaneous dose regimens

    Measured: Baseline and during the last week of 4-week dose regimen

  6. Change From Baseline in C4 Concentration

    Mean change from baseline of C4 concentration of the low, medium and high subcutaneous dose regimens

    Measured: Baseline and during the last week of 4-week dose regimen

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing C1-esterase inhibitor - single intravenous dose, C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous low dose and C1-esterase inhibitor - subcutaneous medium dose in people with Hereditary Angioedema Types I and II, run by CSL Behring at 8 sites in 2 countries.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 1 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States, Germany. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 1 Feb 2021). 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?

Modeled C1-esterase Inhibitor Functional Activity Trough Level (time frame: at the fourth week of each dosing regimen). 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 NCT01576523, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Feb 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
