Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Efficacy Study of Repeated Doses of DX-88 (Ecallantide) to Treat Attacks of Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) (NCT NCT00456508)

NCT ID: NCT00456508

Last Updated: 2021-06-08

Results Overview

Mean Symptom Complex Severity (MSCS) score is a validated point-in-time measure of symptom severity. At baseline and 4 hrs, patients rated the severity on a categorical scale (0=normal, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe) for symptoms at each affected anatomical location. Ratings were averaged to obtain the MSCS score. A decrease in MSCS score reflected an improvement in symptoms; clinically meaningful improvement was indicated by a reduction in the score of 0.30 or more.

Measure
DX-88 (Ecallantide)
Patients were treated with DX-88 (ecallantide) when they experienced an HAE attack. 30 mg dose of ecallantide given via 3 SC injections; a second 30 mg dose can be administered if needed. Patients were to be assessed until 4 hrs post-dose. Patients were asked to return for 3 follow-up visits: 7 days, 28 days and 90 days post-dose.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 hrs post dose after every episode

Population: All efficacy analyses were to be based on the safety population (all treated patients). Only those patients with non-missing severity and response assessment were included in the change in MSCS score.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 4 hrs post dose after every episode

Population: All efficacy analyses were to be based on the safety population (all treated patients). Only those patients with non-missing severity and response assessment were included in the change in TOS score.

The Treatment Outcome Score (TOS)is a validated measure of response to therapy. Response assessment for each symptom complex (internal head/neck, stomach/GI, genital/buttocks, external head/neck or cutaneous) was to be weighted based on the severity of symptom complexes at baseline. Severity assessment at baseline was rated on a categorical scale (1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe) for symptoms at each affected symptom complex. Response assessment of each symptom complex post-dosing relative to baseline used a scale (100=significant improvement, 50=improvement, 0=same). The weighted values were used to calculate the composite TOS. A TOS greater than 0 denotes an improvement in symptoms compared with baseline severity.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 15 min - 4 hrs post dose after every episode

Population: All efficacy analyses were to be based on the safety population (all treated patients). Only those patients with non-missing severity and response assessment were included in the change in TOS score.

Time to significant improvement in overall response based on the period from 15 minutes after dosing through 4 hrs post dosing. Significant improvement was defined as a response of "a lot better or resolved" in the overall response assessment.
