Brief Summary: This open-label study is being conducted to confirm the safety, pharmacokinetic profile and efficacy of Ruconest at a dose of 50 U/kg when used for the treatment of acute angioedema attacks in patients, from 2 up to and including 13 years of age.
Detailed Description: This study was an open-label, Phase 2, non-comparative, multinational, multicenter clinical study in pediatric patients from 2 up to and including 13 years of age, with a confirmed diagnosis of HAE. Patients were eligible for treatment with recombinant human C1-inhibitor (rhC1INH) if they presented to the clinic within 5 hours of onset with an acute attack of at least moderate severity without signs of spontaneous regression. Patients received rhC1INH at a dose of 50 U/kg body weight up to a maximum of 4200 U. The reconstituted solution was administered as a slow intravenous (iv) injection over approximately 5 minutes. The patients remained in hospital and were closely monitored in the study center for at least 4 hours after study medication administration.
