Study design details

Main study objective

To observe adverse events and insufficient efficacy, and to assess the immunological profile following single and repeated treatment with Ruconest in patients diagnosed with HAE

Outcomes

Incidence of AEs reported per patient after single or repeated treatment with Ruconest or plasma-derived C1 inhibitor, Incidence of positive immunological test findings after treatment with Ruconest

Data analysis plan

Incidences of patients with ADRs (globally, on preferred term and system organ class level) will be calculated for each Safety Analysis Set, 2-sided 95% confidence intervals will also be given.
In addition, incidences of patients with ADRs for each treatment number as well as overall percentages of treatments with ADRs will be given.
The number of treatments will be counted by patient and described by frequencies for each Safety Analysis Set.
The mean time between treatments (i.e. ratio of time under observation relative to number of treatments) will be described on a metric scale.
Efficacy will be described by frequencies for the overall assessment.
The statistical analysis will be descriptive and consist of frequency distributions (frequencies and percentages) for categorical variables, and descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, minimum, maximum, and number of observations) for quantitative variables, given for each Safety Analysis Set.
