Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and effectiveness of berotralstat to determine the appropriate weight-based dose for pediatric participants 2 to \< 12 years of age for prophylactic treatment to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (6)
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to the Last Measurable Concentration (AUC0-last) of Berotralstat
AUC0-last is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the time of the last measurable concentration.
Week 2
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time 0 to 6 Hours Post-dose (AUC0-6) of Berotralstat
AUC0-6 is the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to 6 hours.
Predose and up to 6 hours post dose at Week 2
Concentration at the End of the Dosing Interval (Ctrough) of Berotralstat
Ctrough is the concentration at the end of a dosing interval of berotralstat.
Predose at Week 2
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Berotralstat
Cmax is the maximum observed plasma concentration of berotralstat.
Predose and up to 6 hours post dose at Week 2
Time of Last Measurable Plasma Concentration (Tlast) of Berotralstat
Tlast is the time of the last measurable concentration (Clast) of berotralstat collected over the sampling interval.
Predose and up to 6 hours post dose at Week 2
Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Berotralstat
Tmax is the time taken to reach the maximum observed plasma concentration of berotralstat.
Predose and up to 6 hours post dose at Week 2

Study Arms (4)
Cohort 1: ≥ 40 kg body weight (Berotralstat 150 mg)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants received 150 milligram (mg) berotralstat capsule orally once daily for up to 144 weeks. Dose modifications were permitted due to weight changes, PK results, or safety.
Cohort 2: 32 to < 40 kg body weight (Berotralstat 108 mg)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants received 108 mg berotralstat granules orally once daily for up to 144 weeks. Dose modifications were permitted due to weight changes, PK results, or safety.
Cohort 3: 24 to < 32 kg body weight (Berotralstat 96 mg)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants received 96 mg berotralstat granules orally once daily for up to 144 weeks. Dose modifications were permitted due to weight changes, PK results, or safety.
Cohort 4: 12 to <24 kg body weight (Berotralstat 78 mg)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants received 78 mg berotralstat granules orally once daily for up to 144 weeks. Dose modifications were permitted due to weight changes, PK results, or safety.
Interventions
Administered orally once daily
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male and non-pregnant, non-lactating females 2 to \< 12 years of age
- Body weight ≥ 12 kg
- Clinical diagnosis of HAE
- In the opinion of the investigator, the participant would benefit from long term oral HAE prophylaxis
- For subjects who are not currently receiving prophylaxis for HAE, documented history of \>= 2 HAE attacks in the 6 months prior to the enrollment visit.
You may not qualify if:
- Concurrent diagnosis of any other type of recurrent angioedema
- Known family history of sudden cardiac death at a young age (\< 40 years of age)
- Creatinine clearance using the modified Schwartz formula of ≤ 30 mL/min/1.73 m\^2
- Aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase value ≥ 3 × the upper limit of the age-appropriate normal reference range value
- Clinically significant abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) including but not limited to, a corrected QT interval using Fridericia's correction \> 450 msec, or ventricular and/or atrial premature contractions that are more frequent than occasional, and/or as couplets or higher in grouping
- Current participation in any other investigational drug study or received another investigational drug within 30 days of enrollment
