ANGIOEDEMA
 Angioedema is the result of localized blood vessel dilation and increased
permeability that causes rapid swelling of the subcutaneous, mucosal,
and submucosal tissues.
 Hereditary Angioedema Triggers:
 Dental work, trauma, anxiety, stress, etc.
 Attacks can occur spontaneously in the absence of triggers
EPIDEMIOLOGY
 Affects approximately 1 in 50,000 individuals (1:10,000 – 1:150,000)
 Males and females are affected equally
 The prevalence of HAE is highest in Europe and North America
 Mean age of onset is 8 to 12 years
 75% experience first attack by the age of 15 years
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
 Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) is an autosomal dominant disorder
where there is a deficiency or dysfunction in endogenous C1 esterase
inhibitor (C1-INH)
 Type 1: deficiency in C1-INH (~85%)
 Type II HAE: dysfunctional CI-INH (~15%)
 HAE with normal C1-INH: mutations in Factor XII?
 Acquired C1-INH deficiency: associated with autoimmune disorders
 C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH) is a member of the serine protease
inhibitors “serpin” superfamily. It is an inhibitor of the kinin-generating,
coagulation, and fibrinolytic pathways.
CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS
 Prodromal symptoms: fatigue, irritability, nausea, myalgias, flu-like
symptoms, erythema marginatum
 Affected areas: Skin, GI tract, GU tract, and upper airway
 Edema involves the subcutaneous, mucosal, and submucosal tissues
 Urticaria and pruritis are absent,
 Severity: inconvenient cutaneous edema - life-threatening laryngeal edema
 Duration of attacks: 48-96 hours
TREATMENT
 Patients with HAE tend not to respond to epinephrine, antihistamines,
or glucocorticoids
 Plasma kalikrein inhibitor
 Ecallantide (Kalbitor)
 Bradykinin receptor antagonist
 Icatibant acetate (Firazyr)
 C1 esterase inhibitor
 C1 esterase inhibitor, human (Cinryze, Berinert)
C1 ESTERASE INHIBITOR
C1 ESTERASE INHIBITOR
 INDICATIONS & USAGE:
 For routine prophylaxis against angioedema attacks in adolescent and adult patients
with Hereditary Angioedema (Cinryze).
 For the treatment of acute abdominal, facial, or laryngeal attacks of Hereditary
Angioedema in adult and adolescent patients (Berinert).

 C1-INH should be given to pregnant women only if clearly needed
 Breastfeeding:
 It is not known whether C1-INH is excreted in breast milk
 Caution should be exercised when C1-INH is administered to a nursing mother

RECONSTITUTION
DOSING & ADMINISTRATION
 For intravenous use only.
 Can be given as either an IV push over 10 minutes or as an IV drip over
10 minutes
 Administer within 3 hours of reconstitution
 HAE, Prophylaxis (Cinryze):
 1,000 Units IV push/infusion over 10 minutes Q3 - 4 days
 HAE, abdominal, facial, or laryngeal attacks (Berinert):
 20 International Units/kg IV infusion at a rate of approximately 4 mL/min
TRADITIONAL PLACE IN PRACTICE
 Prophylaxis
 The use of C1-INH for prophylaxis against Hereditary Angioedema attacks has been
established
 C1-INH can either be administered by a healthcare provider in clinic or
self-administered by the patient at home
 Treatment
 For acute attacks of HAE in patients presenting to the Emergency Department
 Cinryze is FDA approved for treatment of HAE, but has been studied
 Dosing: 1,000 units IV over 10 minutes; 2nd dose may be administered 60 minutes after first
dose if no improvement in symptoms is seen
- or  20 units/kg IV; rate not to exceend 4 mL/min

NEXT FRONTIER
 C1-INH in patients with HAE with normal C1-INH levels
 Patients are usually refractory to epinephrine, antihistamines, and glucocorticoids
 C1-INH has been used in these patients to presumably raise the set point for
activation of kallikrein and generation of bradykinin.
 Further research is needed to validate its use in this patient population
 C1-INH in patients with Idiopathic Angioedema
 2 main types
 Histaminergic angioedema
 Bradykinergic angioedema
 Most patients do not respond to epinephrine, antihistamines, and glucocorticoids
 The use of C1-INH in this patient population is currently being discussed by experts
