Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional
Primary purpose: Prevention
Allocation: Non-Randomized
Intervention model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Enrollment: 21.0
Sex: All
Minimum age: 2 Years
Maximum age: 11 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Keywords: Lanadelumab

Summary:

      The main aims of this study are to learn how lanadelumab moves through a child's body and if
      the children have any medical problems from lanadelumab. Other aims are to learn if
      prophylactic treatment with lanadelumab reduces the number and severity of HAE attacks in
      children, how lanadelumab affects the child's body, and if the children develop antibodies to
      lanadelumab.

      The study doctors will treat acute HAE attacks according to their standard practice.

      Participants will receive lanadelumab for up to 52 weeks. When they start treatment,
      participants will visit their clinic every week for the first 4 weeks. Then, they will visit
      their clinic every 4 weeks during treatment.
    

Eligibility criteria:

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Be a child (male or female) 2 to lesser than (<) 12 years of age at the time of
             screening.

          -  Documented diagnosis of HAE (Type I or II) based upon both of the following:

               1. Documented clinical history consistent with HAE (SC or mucosal, nonpruritic
                  swelling episodes without accompanying urticarial).

               2. Diagnostic testing results obtained during screening from a sponsor- approved
                  central laboratory that confirm C1-INH functional level < 40 percent (%) of the
                  normal level. Participants with functional C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) level
                  40-50% of the normal level may be enrolled if they also have a complement4 (C4)
                  level below the normal range. With prior sponsor approval, participants may be
                  retested during the baseline observation period if results are incongruent with
                  clinical history or believed by the investigator to be confounded by recent
                  complement1 (C1) inhibitor use.

          -  A historical baseline HAE attack rate of at least 1 attack per 3 months. Note: In
             addition, participants who experience greater than or equal to (>=)1.0 angioedema
             attacks per three months during the 12-week baseline observation period and who remain
             eligible per the inclusion criteria will enter the lanadelumab treatment period.

          -  Agree to adhere to the protocol-defined schedule of treatments, assessments, and
             procedures.

          -  Have a parent(s)/legal guardian who is informed of the nature of the study and can
             provide written informed consent for the child to participate in the study before any
             study-specific procedures are performed (with assent from the child when appropriate).

          -  Females of childbearing potential must agree to be abstinent or agree to comply with
             the applicable contraceptive requirements of this protocol through the duration of the
             study from screening through 70 days after the final study visit.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          -  Concomitant diagnosis of another form of chronic, recurrent angioedema, such as
             acquired angioedema (AAE), HAE with normal C1-INH, idiopathic angioedema, or recurrent
             angioedema associated with urticaria.

          -  Dosing with an investigational drug or exposure to an investigational device within 4
             weeks prior to screening.

          -  Be pregnant or breastfeeding.

          -  Have initiated androgen treatment (eg, stanozolol, danazol, oxandrolone,
             methyltestosterone, and testosterone) within 2 weeks prior to entering the observation
             period.

          -  Exposure to angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or any estrogen-containing
             medications with systemic absorption (such as oral contraceptives or hormonal
             replacement therapy) within 4 weeks prior to screening.

          -  Have any active infectious illness or fever defined as an oral temperature greater
             than (>) 38 degree celsius (°C) (100.4 fahrenheit [°F]), tympanic > 38.5°C (101.3°F) ,
             axillary > 38°C (100.4°F), or rectal/core > 38.5°C (101.3°F) within 24 hours prior to
             the first dose of study drug in treatment period A.

          -  Have any HAE attack that is not resolved prior to the first dose of study drug in
             treatment period A.

          -  Have any of the following liver function test abnormalities: alanine aminotransferase
             (ALT) > 3*upper limit of normal (ULN), or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 3*ULN, or
             total bilirubin > 2*ULN (unless the bilirubin elevation is a result of Gilbert's
             syndrome).

          -  Have any condition (any surgical or medical condition) that, in the opinion of the
             investigator or sponsor, may compromise their safety or compliance, preclude the
             successful conduct of the study, or interfere with interpretation of the results (eg,
             significant pre-existing illness or other major comorbidity that the investigator
             considers may confound the interpretation of study results).

          -  Participant has a known hypersensitivity to the investigational product or its
             components.
