A Study of Lanadelumab in Teenagers and Adults to Prevent Acute Attacks of Non-histaminergic Angioedema With Normal C1-Inhibitor (C1-INH)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The main aim of this study is to check if repeated subcutaneous (SC) injections of lanadelumab can prevent angioedema attacks in teenagers and adults with non-histaminergic angioedema with normal C1-INH. Another aim is to check if they tolerate the repeated SC injections.
Participants will receive a SC injection of lanadelumab every two weeks for 26 weeks. The first two doses of lanadelumab will be given at the study clinic. Once a participant (and/or parent/caregiver) has been appropriately trained, lanadelumab can be self-injected. Visits to the study clinic are planned for the first, third and fourth week and then every 4 weeks.

Detailed Description
This study consists of non-histaminergic normal C1-INH angioedema population with 12 years of age and above. Participants will be randomized 2:1 to receive repeated SC administrations of lanadelumab or placebo in a double-blind fashion. Randomization will be stratified based on baseline angioedema attack rate (1 to less than (<) 2 attacks/4 weeks, and greater than (>=) 2 attacks/4 weeks), as well as subtype (known mutations, family history and unknown mutation, idiopathic).

An angioedema attack is defined as the symptoms or signs consistent with an attack in at least 1 of the following locations: peripheral angioedema (cutaneous swelling involving an extremity, the face, neck, torso, and/or genitourinary region), abdominal angioedema (abdominal pain, with or without abdominal distention, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea), laryngeal angioedema (stridor, dyspnea, difficulty speaking, difficulty swallowing, throat tightening, or swelling of the tongue, palate, uvula, or larynx). Number of investigator-confirmed angioedema attacks during the treatment period of Day 0 through Day 182 will be assessed.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Number of Participants Achieving Attack-Free Status During the Treatment Period of Day 0 Through Day 182 [Day 0 through Day 182]

- Time to First Angioedema Attack After Day 0 Through Day 182 [Day 0 Through Day 182]
The time to the first angioedema attack (days) after Day 0 for the efficacy evaluation period of Day 0 through Day 182 will be calculated from the date and time of the first dose of lanadelumab for the efficacy evaluation period (Day 0 through Day 182) to the date and time of the first in angioedema attack after the first dose for the efficacy evaluation period of Day 0 through Day 182.
- Time to First Angioedema Attack After Day 70 Through Day 182 [Day 70 through Day 182]
The time to the first angioedema attack (days) after Day 0 for the efficacy evaluation period of Day 70 through Day 182 will be calculated from the date and time of the first dose of lanadelumab for the efficacy evaluation period (Day 70 through Day 182) to the date and time of the first in angioedema attack after the first dose for the efficacy evaluation period of Day 70 through Day 182.
- Number of Participants Achieving at Least 50 %, 70%, 90% and 100% Reduction in the Investigator-Confirmed Normalized Number of Attacks (NNA) per 4 Weeks during each of the Efficacy Evaluation Periods Relative to the Observation Period NNA [Day 0 Through Day 182]
Efficacy evaluation period will consist of two periods: Day 0 (after study drug administration) through Day 182 (the end of treatment period), presumed steady-state period from Day 70 through Day 182. Run in period will be 4 weeks and may be extended up to 8 weeks to determine their baseline attack rate.
