Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety, and tolerability of IONIS-PKK-LRx in participants with hereditary angioedema (HAE) type 1 (HAE-1), HAE type 2 (HAE-2), or HAE with normal C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) and to evaluate the effect of IONIS-PKK-LRx on plasma prekallikrein (PKK) and other relevant biomarkers.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study in up 24 participants and will be conducted concurrently in 2 parts (Part A and Part B); participants will be allocated into Part A or Part B according to type of HAE (i.e., either HAE-1/HAE-2 in Part A or HAE-nC1-INH in Part B). Part A will be randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled; and Part B will be open-label. The length of participation in the study will be approximately 8 months, which includes an up to 8-week screening period, a 12-week treatment period, and a 13-week post-treatment period.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: IONIS-PKK-LRx (Part A)

    IONIS-PKK-LRx administered SC
    Other Names:
  • ISIS 721744
  • Placebo Comparator: Placebo

    Placebo will be administered SC to HAE-1/HAE-2 participants every 4 weeks for up to 12 weeks during Part A.

    Placebo matching solution administered SC

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Time-normalized Number of HAE Attacks (per Month) from Week 1 to Week 17 [Week 1 to Week 17]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Time-normalized Number of HAE Attacks (per Month) from Week 5 to Week 17 [Week 5 to Week 17]

    2. Time-normalized Number of Moderate or Severe HAE Attacks (per Month) from Week 5 to Week 17 [Week 5 to Week 17]

    3. Number of Participants with Clinical Response by Week 17 [Week 17]

      Clinical Response is defined as a ≥ 50%, ≥ 70%, or ≥ 90% reduction from baseline in HAE attack rate.

    4. Number of HAE Attacks Requiring Acute Therapy from Week 5 to Week 17 [Week 5 to Week 17]

    5. Cleaved High Molecular Weight Kininogen (cHK) Levels at Weeks 9 and 17 [Weeks 9 and 17]

    6. Prekallikrein (PKK) Activity at Weeks 9 and 17 [Weeks 9 and 17]

    7. Consumption of On-demand Medication at Weeks 9 and 17 [Weeks 9 and 17]

    8. Angioedema Quality of Life (AE-QoL) Questionnaire Score at Weeks 9 and 17 [Weeks 9 and 17]

      The AE-QoL was developed to measure health-related quality of life (HRQoL) impairment in participants with recurrent angioedema. The AE-QoL is a self-administered questionnaire that can be completed in less than 5 minutes. It comprises 17 items across 4 domains: functioning, fatigue/mood, fears/shame, and food. Responses use a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 'never' to 'very often.' Global and domain scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating greater impairment.
