Scientists hunt for blood clues to tame unpredictable swelling attacks
NCT ID NCT04963634
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to find biomarkers (measurable substances in the blood) that could help doctors diagnose bradykinin angioedema and predict how severe attacks might be. The condition causes sudden, unpredictable swelling, and current tests don't work well for all types. Researchers planned to compare blood proteins from patients with the condition to healthy people, but the study was stopped early after enrolling only one participant.
