What is HAE?
Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic condition which occurs in approximately 1 in 30,000 people worldwide. Symptoms include episodes of swelling in the hands, feet, abdomen, face, and airway. Patients may suffer bouts of excruciating abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting that is exacerbated by swelling in the intestinal wall. Airway (laryngeal) swelling is particularly dangerous and can lead to death by asphyxiation.
What causes an HAE attack?
C1 inhibitor is normally found in our blood. Patients with HAE, however, have low levels of functioning C1 inhibitor. There are many triggers for an attack including stress, medications, trauma, hormone changes etc. An attack begins with the activation of (FXII and Kallikrein) that are normally kept in check by C1 inhibitor (C1-INH). Eventually, because there is not enough C1-INH available, this activation leads to the production of bradykinin, which leads to fluid leaking out of the blood vessels and into the tissues (angioedema).
What is Recombinant technology?
Recombinant technology is a state of the art, efficient way to produce
complex human proteins such as C1-INH without the need for human plasma donations. This technology has been used for more than 30 years to make medicines that treat a wide variety of conditions such as asthma, diabetes, hemophilia, and cancer.
What is the difference between prophylaxis and acute?
Prophylaxis is meant to prevent an attack. An acute treatment is focused on reversing or stopping an attack that is already happening.
I have read something on a forum, why is this matter not being discussed by Pharming?
Forums are not controlled or monitored by Pharming. Pharming will always communicate with the public via press releases when new information is available.
Why can we not have more information on the Studies/ Clinical trials?
Some studies are being conducted by an investigator, assisted by Pharming. Which means it is not Pharming’s study. Accordingly, when the study is complete, it will be for the investigator to satisfy themselves that their data is correct and has been properly analyzed, and that their conclusions are correct, before they pass this information on to Pharming. Since we do not know precisely when this may occur, we cannot give a precise date. Once the data are available, we will release the summary of top line data as soon as practicable in association with the investigating clinic.
