–Patient perspectives shed additional light on the challenges of treating hereditary angioedema attacks with injectable on-demand therapies–

–New analyses of sebetralstat clinical trials bolster efficacy and safety profile –

KalVista Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: KALV), today announced that it presented additional analyses of the efficacy and safety of sebetralstat from phase 2 and phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover clinical trials as well as interim data from KONFIDENT-S, a phase 3 open-label extension trial, and real-world patient data at the Bradykinin Symposium 2024 taking place in Berlin, Germany, on September 5-6. Sebetralstat is a novel, investigational oral plasma kallikrein inhibitor for the on-demand treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks in adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older.

“Delay or denial in the treatment of HAE attacks is often related to the administration of the currently approved injectable on-demand treatments which commonly result in injection-site reactions or pain. The data presented today highlight that oral sebetralstat may remove these challenges and has a safety profile no different than placebo,” said Emel Ayg�ren-Pürsün, MD, specialist in internal medicine at the Division of Oncology, Hematology and Hemostaseology at the Department for Children and Adolescents of the University Hospital Frankfurt, and a leading investigator for the phase 2, phase 3 KONFIDENT and KONFIDENT-S trials. “Sebetralstat also resulted in rapid symptom relief in the clinical trials. If approved, sebetralstat might become a major advance for people living with HAE by addressing critical gaps in the current standard of care for on-demand treatment of attacks.”

“We are encouraged by the observation of exceptional consistency of both safety and efficacy across the entire clinical program for sebetralstat for the on-demand treatment of HAE,” said Paul Audhya, MD, MBA, Chief Medical Officer of KalVista Pharmaceuticals. “These data reinforce the potential for sebetralstat to transform the management of HAE.”

The presentations at Bradykinin Symposium 2024 included:

  • Delayed On-demand Treatment of Hereditary Angioedema Attacks and Associated Barriers Reported by Italian patients: Mauro Cancian, Azienda Ospedaliera, Università degli Studi di Padova, Padova, Italy (Oral presentation)
    • Many patients did not meet guideline recommendations for early on-demand treatment following attack recognition, which resulted in more severe attacks.
  • Pooled Sebetralstat Placebo-controlled Efficacy for On-demand Treatment of Hereditary Angioedema: Emel Ayg�ren-Pürsün, University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University Frankfurt, Germany (Poster presentation)
    • Pooled analysis of a larger number of HAE attacks corroborates the efficacy of sebetralstat for on-demand treatment, offering an oral administration route to potentially enable early treatment and rapid symptom relief.
  • Pooled Sebetralstat Placebo-controlled Safety for On-demand Treatment of Hereditary Angioedema: Emel Ayg�ren-Pürsün, University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University Frankfurt, Germany (Oral presentation)
    • In the pooled safety analysis in phase 2 and phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trials, sebetralstat was well-tolerated with a safety profile no different than placebo.
  • KONFIDENT-S Interim Analysis: Sebetralstat for Hereditary Angioedema Attacks Including Laryngeal: Henriette Farkas, Hungarian Angioedema Center of Reference and Excellence, Semmelweis University, Budapest, Hungary (Oral presentation)
    • Among 640 attacks treated, median time to treatment was 9 minutes for all attacks and 8 minutes for laryngeal attacks; the median time to beginning of symptom relief was 1.8 hours for all attacks and 1.3 hours for laryngeal attacks.
  • Phase 3 KONFIDENT Trial of Sebetralstat for HAE: European Subgroup: Andrea Zanichelli, Operative Unit of Medicine, Angioedema Center, IRCCS Policlinico San Donato, San Donato Milanese, Milan, Italy; Department of Biomedical Sciences for Health, University of Milan, Milan, Italy (Poster presentation)
    • In the KONFIDENT phase 3 clinical trial, the positive efficacy and safety of sebetralstat as an on-demand treatment for HAE was consistent between European participants and the overall cohort.
  • A specific, sensitivity assay measuring patient sample plasma kallikrein activity: Daniel Lee, KalVista Pharmaceuticals (Oral presentation)
    • Measuring specific plasma kallikrein activity could be useful as a biomarker for normal C1INH, which currently has no standardized diagnostic pathway.

About Hereditary Angioedema Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disease resulting in deficiency or dysfunction in the C1 esterase inhibitor (C1INH) protein and subsequent uncontrolled activation of the kallikrein-kinin system. People living with HAE experience painful and debilitating attacks of tissue swelling in various locations of the body that can be life-threatening depending on the location affected.
