Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Safety and Efficacy of Ecallantide Compare the proportion of patients meeting prespecified discharge criteria in the group receiving ecallantide with conventional therapy to patients receiving placebo with conventional therapy. Patients were evaluated against 6 discharge eligibility criteria at 1,2,3,4,5, and 6 hours after study drug administration or until discharged from the ER. A responder was defined as a patient meeting all six discharge eligibility criteria as below: • Improvement of edema to "a little better" or "a lot better" as assessed by health care provider using a five point scale • Stable vital signs (within an acceptable range) • Absence of stridor • Absence of dyspnea or use of accessory muscles during respiration • Absence of drooling • Able to drink without difficulty 6 hours
Secondary Time to Symptom Resolution Based on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Compare the time to onset of symptom resolution between the ecallantide-treated and placebo-treated groups. The patient assessed severity of the angioedema attack using a VAS at baseline and following study drug administration every 15 minutes for the first 2 hours and then every 30 minutes through 6 hours post dosing or until the time of discharge from the ER (whichever occurred first). The scale ranged from "totally resolved" to "very severe". 6 hours
