About this study

Official title: Biomarker for Hereditary AngioEdema Disease: An International, Multicenter, Longitudinal Monitoring Protocol

International, multicenter, observational, longitudinal monitoring study to identify, validate and/or monitor Mass Spectrometry (MS)-based biomarker/s for Hereditary Angioedeme (HAE) disease and to test the clinical robustness, specificity, and predictive value of theese biomarker/s

Read the detailed description

Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder, characterized by recurrent episodes of angioedema of the face, larynx, lips, abdomen, and extremities.The most common types of HAE develop as result of mutations in the SERPING1 gene that encodes the C1 inhibitor (C1-INH), a protease involved in limiting bradykinin production. Excessive bradykinin due to low levels of C1-INH (HAE type 1) or dysfunctional C1-INH (HAE type 2) leads to capillary leakage and angioedema formation. The third type of HAE is not associated with a C1-INH deficiency, develops as a result of mutations in the Factor 12 gene (FXII) and affects almost exclusively women. Rare cases of HAE have also been described resulting from mutations in Plasminogen (PLG), Angiopoetin 1 (ANGPT1), and Kininogen 1 (KNG1).

The characteristic symptom of hereditary angioedema is recurrent episodes of swelling due to the accumulation of excessive body fluid. The most commonly affected areas of the body include the hands, feet, eyelids, lips, genitals, larynx and gastrointestinal tract. The most serious complication of HAE is laryngeal edema that can become life threatening; but it is a relatively rare event.

The diagnosis of hereditary angioedema is made by a thorough clinical evaluation, a detailed patient history, and blood tests.Clinical diagnosis is complicated because HAE is highly variable in the clinical phenotype and the majority of the physicians believe that they never seen a patient with that disorder. Laboratory diagnosis involves measurement of the C1-INH function, C1-INH and C4 levels. Both C1-INH protein level and function is low in HAE-1 patients, whereas in HAE-2 individuals the C1-INH concentrations is optimal or even elevated, however C1-INH function is impaired. Generally, C4 levels are low in both HAE-1/2 patients.

CENTOGENE utilizes Liquid Chromatography-Multiple Reaction Monitoring Mass Spectrometry (LC-MRM-MS) method to identify potential disease-specific biomarkers for HAE. Such biomarker/s may support the early diagnosis and treatment monitoring and personalization in the future.

Therefore, it is the goal of this study is to identify new biomarkers for HAE, validate the identified biomarkers, and monitor these biomarkers longitudinally to determine their clinical robustness, specificity, and predictive value.

What is being measured

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

  1. Identification, validation and/or monitoring of mass spectrometry (MS)-based biomarkers of Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) patients

    All samples will be analyzed for the identification of biomarker/s via Liquid Chromatography Multiple Reaction-monitoring Mass Spectrometry (LC/MRM-MS) and compared to merged control, in order to establish the disease-specific biomarker/s. The LC/MRM-MS is performed on an ABSciex 6500 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, coupled with a Waters Acquity UPLC.

    Measured: 36 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Determination of the clinical robustness, specificity, and predictive value of the biomarker(s)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of C1 Esterase Inhibitor Deficiency and Angio Edema, run by CENTOGENE GmbH Rostock at 7 sites in 7 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 3 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 24 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Armenia, Georgia, India, Peru, Poland and 2 more countries. 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.

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?

Identification, validation and/or monitoring of mass spectrometry (MS)-based biomarkers of Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) patients (time frame: 36 months). 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 24 Mar 2022.
