Study of C1-inhibitor test for hereditary angioedema diagnosis
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This study checks if a blood test measuring C1-inhibitor function can help diagnose hereditary angioedema (HAE), a rare condition that causes painful swelling episodes. If you or a close family member have had swelling without rash or itching that lasts 1-5 days and doesn't get better with allergy meds, this trial may be for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 12 years old or older.
- You or a close family member must have symptoms that suggest hereditary angioedema (HAE).
- Your swelling should not be pitted when pressed, should not have a rash or itching, and should last 1 to 5 days.
- If you are a family member, you must be a first- to fourth-degree relative of someone with known HAE.
- You must not already have a confirmed diagnosis of HAE type 1 or type 2.
- You must not have swelling with a rash or itching (which suggests a different cause).
