Icatibant use in Brazilian patients with hereditary angioedema (HAE) type 1 or 2 and HAE with normal C1-INH levels: findings from the Icatibant Outcome Survey Registry Study. An Bras Dermatol 2022; 97:448-457. [PMID: 35654647 PMCID: PMC9263662 DOI: 10.1016/j.abd.2021.09.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2021] [Revised: 08/26/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Hereditary angioedema can be caused by C1-Inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency and/or dysfunction (HAE-1/2) or can occur in patients with normal C1-INH (HAE nC1-INH). Methods The Icatibant Outcome Survey (IOS; NCT01034969) registry monitors the safety and effectiveness of icatibant for treating acute angioedema. Objective Present findings from Brazilian patients with HAE-1/2 and HAE nC1-INH participating in IOS. Results 42 patients were enrolled (HAE-1/2, n = 26; HAE nC1-INH, n = 16). Median age at symptom onset was significantly lower with HAE-1/2 vs. HAE nC1-INH (10.0 vs. 16.5y, respectively; p = 0.0105), whereas median age at diagnosis (31.1 vs. 40.9y; p = 0.1276) and the median time between symptom onset and diagnosis (15.0 vs. 23.8y; p = 0.6680) were numerically lower vs. HAE nC1-INH, respectively. One icatibant dose was used for > 95% of HAE attacks. Median (range) time-to-event outcomes were shorter for patients with HAE nC1-INH vs. HAE-1/2, including time to first administration (0.5 [0–96.0] vs. 1.0 [0–94.0]h, respectively), time from first administration to complete resolution (1.0 [0–88.0] vs. 5.5 [0–96.0]h, respectively), and total attack duration (7.0 [0.3–99.0] vs. 18.5 [0.1–100.0]h, respectively). Mean (SD) time from attack onset to resolution was significantly shorter for patients with HAE nC1-INH vs. HAE-1/2 (9.8 [18.7] vs. 19.6 [24.0]h, respectively; p = 0.0174). 83 adverse events (AEs) in 42 patients were reported; most were mild (66.3%) or moderate (13.3%) and non-serious (75.9%). The most common icatibant-related AE was injection site erythema (HAE-1/2, 34.6%; HAE nC1-INH, 18.8%). Study limitations This was an observational study without a treatment comparator and that relied on patient recall. Conclusions Findings demonstrate effectiveness and tolerability of icatibant in Brazilian HAE patients.

Abstract
Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) is a rare and disabling disease for which early diagnosis and effective therapy are critical. This revision and update of the global WAO/EAACI guideline on the diagnosis and management of HAE provides up-to-date guidance for the management of HAE. For this update and revision of the guideline, an international panel of experts reviewed the existing evidence, developed 28 recommendations, and established consensus by an online DELPHI process. The goal of these recommendations and guideline is to help physicians and their patients in making rational decisions in the management of HAE with deficient C1-inhibitor (type 1) and HAE with dysfunctional C1-inhibitor (type 2), by providing guidance on common and important clinical issues, such as: 1) How should HAE be diagnosed? 2) When should HAE patients receive prophylactic on top of on-demand treatment and what treatments should be used? 3) What are the goals of treatment? 4) Should HAE management be different for special HAE patient groups such as children or pregnant/breast feeding women? 5) How should HAE patients monitor their disease activity, impact, and control? It is also the intention of this guideline to help establish global standards for the management of HAE and to encourage and facilitate the use of recommended diagnostics and therapies for all patients.

Abstract
Vascular leakage, or edema, is a serious complication of acute allergic reactions. Vascular leakage is triggered by the release of histamine and serotonin from granules within tissue-resident mast cells. Here, we show that expression of Neutrophil Serine Protease 4 (NSP4) during the early stages of mast cell development regulates mast cell-mediated vascular leakage. In myeloid precursors, the granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GMPs), loss of NSP4 results in the decrease of cellular levels of histamine, serotonin and heparin/heparan sulfate. Mast cells that are derived from NSP4-deficient GMPs have abnormal secretory granule morphology and a sustained reduction in histamine and serotonin levels. Consequently, in passive cutaneous anaphylaxis and acute arthritis models, mast cell-mediated vascular leakage in the skin and joints is substantially reduced in NSP4-deficient mice. Our findings reveal that NSP4 is required for the proper storage of vasoactive amines in mast cell granules, which impacts mast cell-dependent vascular leakage in mouse models of immune complex-mediated diseases.

Abstract
Hereditary angioedema is a rare, autosomal dominant genetic disorder that leads to sporadic episodes of swelling, which can affect any part of the body. With a prevalence of 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 50,000, there are other, more common causes of angioedema. Differentiating between bradykinin-mediated and histamine-mediated causes of swelling remains a major challenge. It is critical to develop an appropriate differential diagnosis, work through the various conditions, and obtain the pertinent laboratory evaluation to rule in or out the proposed diagnosis. As an autosomal dominant genetic disorder, there is a 50% chance with each pregnancy of passing on the genetic mutation in the SERPING1 gene. This review addressed the differential diagnosis to consider, the appropriate laboratory evaluation, and the importance of family screening.

Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol 2020; 124:600-607. [PMID: 32169514 DOI: 10.1016/j.anai.2020.02.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 64] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2019] [Revised: 02/07/2020] [Accepted: 02/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1-inhibitor deficiency is associated with painful, potentially fatal attacks affecting subcutaneous or submucosal tissues. OBJECTIVE To evaluate HAE burden from the patients' perspective. METHODS This was a noninterventional survey of patients with HAE in the United States, conducted from March 17 to April 28, 2017. Patients were recruited through the US Hereditary Angioedema Association. Key eligibility criteria included the following: (1) aged 18 years and older, (2) self-reported physician diagnosis of HAE type I or II, (3) 1 or more HAE attacks or prodromal symptoms within the last year, and (4) receipt of HAE medication for an attack within the last 2 years. Descriptive analyses were conducted. RESULTS A total of 445 patients completed the survey. Most patients (92.8%) were aged 18 to 64 years with HAE type I (78.4%) and had a positive family history (78.4%). Mean (SD) ages at symptom onset and diagnosis were 12.5 (9.1) and 20.1 (13.7) years, respectively. Most patients (78.7%) experienced an attack within the past month. The abdomen (58.0%) and extremities (46.1%) were commonly affected sites; pain (73.9%) and abdominal (57.0%) and nonabdominal (55.1%) swelling were frequently reported symptoms. Most patients (68.5%) had received or were currently receiving long-term prophylaxis. Most patients (88.8%) reported visiting allergists or immunologists, whereas 9.2% visited emergency departments or urgent care clinics. Per the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, 49.9% and 24.0% of respondents had anxiety and depression, respectively. Mean Hereditary Angioedema-Quality of Life scores were generally lower with higher attack frequency. General health was "poor" or "fair" for 24.8% of patients. Mean (SD) percentage impairments were 5.9% (14.1%) for absenteeism, 23.0% (25.8%) for presenteeism, 25.4% (28.1%) for work productivity loss, and 31.8% (29.7%) for activity impairment. CONCLUSION Despite treatment advances, patients with HAE in the United States continue to have a high burden of illness.

Abstract
Background ACE angioedema has not been characterized in comparison with angioedema from other causes in
acute hospitalized patients. Methods We retrospectively compared ACE-angioedema and non-ACE angioedema patients from January 2013
to May 2017. Results Of 855 cases screened, 575 met the inclusion criteria of angioedema diagnosis and an
electronic medical record. Of these, 297 (51.7%) had ACE angioedema and 278 had angioedema
from other causes, of these 31 who were taking an ACE inhibitor that was not considered to be
the cause of angioedema (ACE other cause). At least 80% of cases in all groups were African
American. Epinephrine was prescribed in 21% of ACE angioedema cases. One-third of patients in
all groups were admitted to the ICU, and about 25% required intubation. Previous history of
ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema was found in 63 of 278 non-ACE cause angioedema patients
(23%) and in 23 (8%) in the ACE cause group. Conclusion ACE angioedema was the cause of half of angioedema admissions over a 4.5-year period.
Mortality, morbidity, and treatment did not differ between the groups. Patients on ACE
inhibitors were often treated with medications known not to be effective for ACE angioedema.
Over one-fourth of patients not taking an ACE inhibitor had a previous history of ACE
angioedema, and 31 patients taking ACE inhibitors were diagnosed with non-ACE angioedema.
Regardless of the etiology of angioedema, 25% of patients required airway protection in the
form of intubation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Angioedema is a potentially fatal condition that may occur at any time in the perioperative period. It may result from histamine release, hypersensitivity reaction to drugs, or be triggered by bradykinin, in non-allergic reactions of hereditary or acquired etiology. The aim of this report is to report a case of angioedema in the early postoperative period in a patient on antihypertensive medication involving angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. CASE REPORT A 67-year-old male, Afro-descendant, hypertensive, and taken enalapril maleate underwent orthopedic shoulder surgery under general anesthesia combined with brachial plexus block. The procedure lasted 3hours uneventfully. After discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit, the patient presented with angioedema and severe airway impairment. Tracheal intubation was attempted but it was impossible due to edema affecting the lips, tongue, and oropharyngeal region Emergency cricothyroidotomy was performed. The onset of angioedema had no causal relationship with the administration of any medication; there were no cutaneous manifestations and also not response to therapy for hypersensitivity reaction to drugs, such as antihistamines, corticoid, and adrenaline. It was considered to be mediated by bradykinin, as the patient had already had two similar episodes and was on regular medication (enalapril). The evolution was satisfactory. CONCLUSION Angioedema is a potentially fatal condition when it affects the airway, and should be recognized by anesthesiologists and physicians working in the emergency departments.

Abstract
Angioedema is a common reason for referral to immunology and allergy specialists. Not all cases are in fact angioedema. There are many conditions that may mimic its appearance, resulting in misdiagnosis. This may happen when a clinician is unfamiliar with conditions resembling angioedema or when there is a low index of clinical suspicion. In this article, we explore a list of differential diagnoses based on body parts, including the lips, the limbs, periorbital tissues, the face, epiglottis and uvula, as well as the genitalia, that may pose as a masquerader even to an experienced eye.

Abstract
Angioedema is defined by non-dependent, non-pitting edema that affects several different sites and is potentially life-threatening due to laryngeal edema. This narrative review provides emergency physicians with a focused overview of the evaluation and management of angioedema. Two primary forms include histamine-mediated and bradykinin-mediated angioedema. Histamine-mediated forms present similarly to anaphylaxis, while bradykinin-mediated angioedema presents with greater face and oropharyngeal involvement and higher risk of progression. Initial evaluation and management should focus on evaluation of the airway, followed by obtaining relevant historical features, including family history, medications, and prior episodes. Histamine-mediated angioedema should be treated with epinephrine intramuscularly, antihistaminergic medications, and steroids. These medications are not effective for bradykinin-mediated forms. Other medications include C1-INH protein replacement, kallikrein inhibitor, and bradykinin receptor antagonists. Evidence is controversial concerning the efficacy of these medications in an acute episode, and airway management is the most important intervention when indicated. Airway intervention may require fiberoptic or video laryngoscopy, with preparation for cricothyrotomy. Disposition is dependent on patient's airway and respiratory status, as well as the sites involved.

Abstract
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency (C1-INH-HAE) is a rare disease characterized by diminished levels or dysfunctional activity of C1-INH, leading to dysregulated plasma kallikrein activity within the kallikrein-kinin pathway. Symptoms manifest as painful, potentially life-threatening swelling of subcutaneous tissues throughout the body and/or submucosal edema in the upper airway or gastrointestinal tract. Attacks recur with unpredictable frequency, intensity, and duration, placing a heavy burden on patients' daily lives. Despite improved availability of medications for on-demand treatment during attacks and prophylaxis of future attacks, unmet needs remain. Lanadelumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody, may help address some of the limitations of existing prophylactic options (e.g., the need for intravenous administration or frequent dosing). Preclinical studies demonstrate that it is highly potent and specifically inhibits plasma kallikrein, and findings from phase Ia and Ib studies suggest this agent is well tolerated and provides sustained inhibition of plasma kallikrein, allowing for less frequent dosing. The phase III HELP Study (NCT02586805) evaluating the efficacy and safety of lanadelumab in preventing HAE attacks has been completed, and its open-label extension (NCT02741596) is ongoing. Lanadelumab is now approved in the USA and Canada for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of HAE in patients aged ≥ 12 years. This review provides an overview of the discovery and clinical development of lanadelumab, from preclinical through phase Ib studies, characterizing its safety/tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles. It also highlights how this agent may positively impact clinical care of patients with C1-INH-HAE.

Abstract
Angioedema is a self-limiting edema of the subcutaneous or submucosal tissues due to localised increase of microvascular permeability whose mediator may be histamine or bradykinin. Patients present to emergency department when angioedema involves oral cavity and larynx (life-threatening conditions) or gut (mimicking an acute abdomen). After initial evaluation of consciousness and vital signs to manage breathing and to support circulation if necessary, a simple approach can be applied for a correct diagnosis and treatment. Forms of edema such as anasarca, myxedema, superior vena cava syndrome and acute dermatitis should be ruled out. Then, effort should be done to differentiate histaminergic from non-histaminergic angioedema. Concomitant urticaria and pruritus suggest a histaminergic origin. Exposure to allergens and drugs (mainly ACE inhibitors and non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) should be investigated as well as a family history of similar symptoms. Allergic histaminergic angioedema has a rapid course (minutes) whereas non histaminergic angioedema is slower (hours). Since frequently the intervention needs to be immediate, the initial diagnosis is only clinical. However, laboratory tests can be subsequently confirmatory. Allergic angioedema is sensitive to standard therapies such as epinephrine, glucocorticoids and antihistamines whereas non histaminergic angioedema is often resistant to these drugs. Therapeutic options for angioedema due C1-inhibitor deficiencies are C1-inhibitor concentrates, icatibant and ecallantide. If these drugs are not available, fresh frozen plasma can be considered. All these medications have been used also in ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema with variable results thus they are not currently recommended whereas experts agree on the discontinuation of the causative drug.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this work was to assess resident education regarding contemporary management of hereditary angioedema using a web-based survey. METHODS An 11-item, multiple-choice, electronic questionnaire was sent to all 106 accredited otolaryngology training programs in November 2016. Questions focused on resident education, management principles, and formalized assessment. RESULTS A total of 34 program directors responded, representing 32% of otolaryngology residences. Ninety-seven percent believed otolaryngology residents should be knowledgeable in the management of hereditary angioedema due to C1 inhibitor deficiency (C1-INH-HAE). Specifically, 38% and 26% of program directors felt their residents were comfortable and very comfortable in C1-INH-HAE management, respectively. Of those surveyed, 18% have educational simulation activities and a protocol in place for C1-INH-HAE management. Forty-seven percent of respondents felt their training program provided adequate education and exposure to C1-INH-HAE. Over the last 5 years, 45% felt residents were exposed to 1 to 5 cases of C1-INH-HAE. Sixty-seven percent of residents were trained in the management of C1-INH-HAE through in-person lectures. Seventy-one percent of programs had no formal assessment of resident competency in C1-INH-HAE management. CONCLUSION This study is the first to offer insight into C1-INH-HAE education and management principles in otolaryngology training programs. Surveyed program directors believe residents need a strong knowledge base in the management of C1-INH-HAE but less than half feel their trainees acquire the necessary exposure to this emergent disease process. Future research efforts in this area should aim to determine optimal educational activities as well as how to best incorporate this into otolaryngology residency curricula.
