New hope for kids with rare swelling disorder as drug trial begins
NCT ID NCT07298447
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 03, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tests a drug called donidalorsen in 20 children aged 2 to 12 with hereditary angioedema (HAE), a condition that causes sudden, painful swelling. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how it works in young bodies. Researchers will monitor side effects and measure how well it prevents swelling attacks.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. Must be between the ages of 2 and less than 12 years, inclusive, at the time of informed consent and, as applicable, assent. 2. Must weigh at least 9 kg at the time of informed consent and, as applicable, assent. 3. Documented diagnosis of HAE-1/HAE-2 based upon both of the following: 1. Documented clinical history consistent with HAE (SC or mucosal, non-pruritic swelling episodes without accompanying urticaria). 2. Diagnostic testing results that confirm HAE-1/HAE-2: C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) functional level \<50% normal level AND complement factor C4 level below the lower limit of normal (LLN); OR a known pathogenic mutation in the SERPING1 gene. Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. Must not have any screening laboratory abnormalities or any other clinically significant abnormalities during screening that would render a participant unsuitable for inclusion. 2. Must not have been treated with another investigational drug, biological agent, or device within 1 month of Screening, or 5 half-lives of investigational agent, whichever is longer. 3. Concurrent diagnosis of any other type of recurrent angioedema, including idiopathic angioedema or HAE with normal C1-INH (HAE-nC1-INH or Type III). Note: Other protocol-specified inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
