Brief Summary
Hereditary angioedema ("HAE") is a genetic disorder characterized by sudden recurrent attacks of local swelling (angioedema). These attacks are often painful and disabling, and, in some cases, life-threatening. "HAE" is caused by mutations in the "C1INH" gene that leads to a decrease in the blood level of functional "C1INH". This multi-center study was designed to assess the safety and tolerability, efficacy and pharmacodynamics/ pharmacokinetics of recombinant human C1 inhibitor ("rhC1INH") in the treatment of acute hereditary angioedema attacks.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Time to Beginning of Relief of Symptoms
The time to beginning of relief of symptoms has been assessed by using a patient-reported visual analogue scale ("VAS") ranging from 0 mm (no symptoms at all) to 100 mm (extremely disabling). Time to beginning of relief of symptoms at the location that showed first "VAS" score decrease of at least 20 mm from baseline score (t= 0 min) to the next assessment time-point). Assessment time-points were taken on pre-scheduled time-points after drug administration: baseline (0 minutes), 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 16 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours. Time to beginning of relief has been calculated as median time, by using the exact time-points on which each assessment was performed.
up to 48 hours after study drug administration
