ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1-inhibitor deficiency (HAE-C1-INH) is characterized by recurrent, debilitating episodes of swelling. Sebetralstat, an investigational oral plasma kallikrein inhibitor, demonstrated promising efficacy for on-demand treatment of HAE-C1-INH in a phase 2 trial. We describe the multipronged approach informing the design of KONFIDENT, a phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, three-way crossover trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of sebetralstat in patients aged ≥12 years with HAE-C1-INH.METHODS:
To determine an optimal endpoint to measure the beginning of symptom relief in KONFIDENT, we engaged patients with HAE on clinical outcome measures and subsequently conducted analyses of phase 2 outcomes. Sample size was determined via a simulation-based approach using phase 2 data.RESULTS:
Patient interviews revealed a strong preference (71%) for the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) over other measures and indicated a rating of "A Little Better" as a clinically meaningful milestone. In phase 2, a rating of "A Little Better" demonstrated agreement with attack severity improvement and resolution on the Patient Global Impression of Severity and had better sensitivity than "Better." Simulations indicated that 84 patients completing treatment would ensure at least 90% power for assessing the primary endpoint of time to beginning of symptom relief defined as a PGI-C rating of at least "A Little Better" for two time points in a row.CONCLUSIONS:
Patient feedback and phase 2 data support PGI-C as the primary outcome measure in the phase 3 KONFIDENT trial evaluating sebetralstat, which has the potential to be the first oral on-demand treatment for HAE-C1-INH attacks.
