Plain English Summary

Background and study aims
STAR-0215-202 is a long-term, open-label trial to assess the safety and efficacy of repeat dosing of STAR-0215 for the prevention of acute attacks in adult patients with Type 1or Type 2 hereditary angioedema (HAE). Participants may either enroll from the Phase 1b/2 STAR 0215 201 (ALPHA-STAR) trial or be STAR-0215 naïve and not enrolled in STAR-0215-201. HAE is a rare genetic disorder that causes repeated and unpredictable attacks of swelling in the face, arms and legs, abdomen, genitals, and airways. The aim of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of STAR 0215 in participants with Type 1 or Type 2 HAE. STAR-0215 drug product is supplied as a sterile, preservative-free solution for subcutaneous injection. Participants may receive STAR-0215 subcutaneously for up to 5 years, or until marketing authorization, whichever comes first.

Who can participate?
About 56 participants with HAE will take part in the trial globally.

What does the study involve?
All participants will receive STAR-0215 and will be assigned to receive one of three dosing regimens:
Dosing Regimen 1: Day 1 will receive a dose of STAR-0215, then will continue dosing every 3 months
Dosing Regimen 2: Day 1 will receive a dose of STAR-0215, then will continue dosing every 6 months
Dosing Regimen 3: Day 1 will receive a dose of STAR-0215, another dose 1 month later, then will continue dosing every 6 months
The dosing regimen to which they are assigned will depend on the cohort they were in while participating in the STAR-0215-201 trial: If they were in cohorts 1 or 2, they will be in Dosing Regimen 1 and if they were in cohort 3, they will be in Dosing Regimen 2. Participants who never received any dose of STAR-0215 will be assigned to a dosing regimen sequentially in relation to other participants without previous cohort assignment.
Participants will have a total of about 23 study site visits and 4 remote contact visits if in Dosing Regimen 1, about 17 study site visits and 9 remote contact visits if in Dosing Regimen 2, and about 18 study visits and 9 remote contacts for Dosing Regimen 3. Following the last dose of STAR-0215 they will continue to be monitored to check for any safety concerns, regardless of dosing regimen. This follow-up period consists of 2 study site visits and 4 remote contact visits.

What are the possible benefits and risks of participating?
There may not be a direct medical benefit from receiving the study drug. Participants' HAE may get better, stay the same, or even get worse.
It is possible that the results may not help individuals but the information from this study will help improve treatment for people with HAE in the future.

InterventionCurrent interventions as of 18/12/2024:
In this trial, participants will be assigned to one of the following groups:

Dosing Regimen 1:
Day 1 participants will receive a dose of STAR-0215, then will continue dosing of STAR- 0215 every 3 months. The maximum duration that participants will receive the study drug is up to 5 years.

Dosing Regimen 2:
