Real-world outcomes of patients with hereditary angioedema with normal C1-inhibitor function and patients with idiopathic angioedema of unknown etiology in Canada
Using Canadian real-world evidence, these data demonstrate differing clinical trajectories between patients with HAE nC1-INH and AE-UNK, including diagnostic delays, varied attack characteristics, treatment responses and healthcare utilization. Despite treatment response, many patients still experienced frequent angioedema attacks. These results suggest an unmet need for treatment guidelines and therapies specifically for patients with HAE nC1-INH and AE-UNK and better understanding of the pathophysiology accounting for the reported differences between the two.
