NCT ID NCT07266805

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This Phase 3 trial tests an oral drug called deucrictibant in adults with acquired angioedema due to C1 inhibitor deficiency, a rare condition causing sudden, painful swelling attacks. The study has three parts: one to see if a daily extended-release tablet can prevent attacks, another to test an immediate-release capsule for on-demand treatment, and an open-label part for long-term safety. About 32 participants will be enrolled to compare the drug against placebo.
