Brief summary in lay language

PIQHAR is an observational study in patients with type 1 or type 2 Hereditary angioedema (HAE) who, despite a lower yearly attack rate, suffer from a clinically significant impairment in their quality of life. Patients will be enrolled after decision for treatment with lanadelumab (TAKHZYRO®) according to current product labelling was made. Comprehensive data from routine patient visits and patient questionnaires will be captured by study sites at enrollment and every six months thereafter up to month 24. As so far little clinical experience exists for this HAE patient group, the main study aim is to evaluate the efficacy of lanadelumab in improving health-related quality of life. Further aims are to evaluate the percentage of attack-free days while on different dosing intervals as well as the reduction of HAE attack frequency.

Brief summary in scientific language

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare disease caused by autosomal dominant mutations in the C1-esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) gene. With the introduction of new prophylactic therapies, goals for HAE treatment have recently evolved from treating the more severe and life-threatening attacks to preventing their occurrence. One of these novel therapies is lanadelumab (TAKHZYRO®). So far, the majority of real-world evidence for the use of lanadelumab has predominantly been collected in HAE patients with a high disease activity who were insufficiently controlled by other available treatment options. The PIQHAR study, as non-interventional, prospective, multicenter study, aims to collect real-world clinical evidence on the long-term, quality of life (QoL)-related Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs), effectiveness and HAE attack characteristics of lanadelumab in patients who experience less frequent HAE attacks (≤ 24 attacks/year), coupled with a considerable impairment in their quality of life (measured via validated questionnaires). Patients (12 years and older) will be enrolled at participating sites over a period of approximately 12 months and will be followed for up to 24 months after the enrollment date. Comprehensive data from routine patient visits will be captured by study sites at enrollment (prior to the first dose of lanadelumab) and every six months thereafter up to month 24. For the primary outcome measure, the Angioedema Quality of Life Questionnaire (AE-QoL), data will be additionally reported at month 1, 2, 3, 9, 15 and 21.

Health condition or problem studied

ICD10:
D84.1 - Defects in the complement system
Healthy volunteers:
No

Interventions, Observational Groups

Arm 1:
Patients with type 1 or type 2 HAE who initiate treatment with lanadelumab according to the current product labelling, a documented history of ≤ 24 attacks in the year prior to enrollment and a baseline AE-QoL Score of ≥ 30 points.

Endpoints

Primary outcome:
Effectiveness of lanadelumab to significantly improve health-related quality of life in HAE patients with less frequent HAE attacks, measured via the Angioedema Quality of Life Questionnaire (AE-QoL) and its minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of 6 points in the total score.
Secondary outcome:
- Effectiveness of lanadelumab q4w dosing interval compared to non-q4w dosing intervals; - Effectiveness of lanadelumab in reducing HAE attack frequency in real-world clinical practice.
