Phase 2
Withdrawn
Conditions
Hereditary Angioedema (HAE)
Interventions
Biological: ecallantide

NCT01253382
Lead Sponsor
Shire
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is:

* assess the safety and tolerability of ecallantide in paediatric patients for acute attacks of HAE

The secondary objectives are:

* evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of ecallantide in paediatric patients treated for acute attacks of HAE

* assess the efficacy of ecallantide in paediatric patients treated for moderate to severe acute attacks of HAE
