What this trial studies

This Phase 3, multi-center, open-label study evaluates the long-term safety and efficacy of donidalorsen in individuals with hereditary angioedema (HAE). The study includes approximately 144 participants, divided into two groups: those rolling over from a previous study and new participants who have been on other prophylactic therapies. Participants will receive donidalorsen for an extended treatment period, with the study lasting up to 76 weeks for new participants and 70 weeks for those in the open-label extension. The primary focus is on the frequency of HAE attacks and their impact on quality of life.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals aged 12 years and older with a documented diagnosis of HAE-1 or HAE-2 who have been on stable prophylactic treatment.

Not a fit: Patients who are not diagnosed with hereditary angioedema or those who cannot access acute medications for angioedema attacks may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly reduce the frequency of HAE attacks and improve the quality of life for patients.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise in using similar approaches for treating hereditary angioedema, indicating potential for success.
