To compare the efficacy and safety of lanadelumab versus other approved long-term prophylaxis (LTP) treatments in patients with pediatric hereditary angioedema (HAE) aged <12 years. A systematic literature review was conducted to identify studies of LTP in patients with HAE aged <12 years. Two studies met the inclusion criteria in an indirect treatment comparison of efficacy and safety data in pediatric HAE patients.

Introduction: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare disease caused by dysfunction or lack of the C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) protein. The true prevalence of HAE, and whether this prevalence differs across regions, is uncertain.
Methods: To estimate the prevalence of HAE worldwide, a systematic review and meta-analysis was performed.

Hereditary angioedema is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by defects in C1-esterase inhibitor (C1-INH), resulting in poorly controlled activation of the kallikrein-kinin system and bradykinin overproduction. C1-INH is a heavily glycosylated protein in the serine protease inhibitor (SERPIN) family, yet the role of these glycosylation sites remains unclear. To elucidate the functional impact of N-glycosylation in the SERPIN domain of C1-INH, we engineered four sets consisting of 26 variants at or near the N-linked sequon (NXS/T).

Background: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disorder with potentially life-threatening consequences, traditionally diagnosed by conventional laboratory methods that can be resource intensive and inconvenient. Incorporating dried blood spot (DBS) tests may be a promising alternative for diagnosing HAE and family screening.
Objective: This study aimed to validate DBS with conventional laboratory assays among confirmed C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) HAE patients and assess the utility of DBS in a Screening Programme Providing Outreach for Testing Hereditary Angioedema (SPPOT-HAE).
