Time-Normalized Investigator-Confirmed (IC) HAE Attack Rate (Per Month) From Week 1 to Week 25
Week 1 to Week 25

The time-adjusted HAE attack rate was calculated as number of IC HAE attacks occurring from Week 1 to Week 25, divided by the number of days the participant contributed to the period multiplied by 28 days. An HAE attack was defined as an event with signs or symptoms consistent with an attack in at least 1 of the locations: peripheral angioedema (cutaneous swelling involving an extremity, the face, neck, torso, and/or genitourinary region), abdominal angioedema (abdominal pain, with or without abdominal distention, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea), laryngeal angioedema (stridor, dyspnea, difficulty speaking, difficulty swallowing, throat tightening, or swelling of the tongue, palate, uvula, or larynx).

Percentage of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Up to Week 221

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not the AE is considered related to the medicinal (investigational) product. TEAEs were defined as those AEs that either started or worsened in severity on or after the date/time of first administration of study drug in this OLE Study. TEAEs included both serious and non-serious TEAEs.

Percentage of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Changes in Clinical Laboratory Assessments
Up to Week 221

Clinical laboratory tests including clinical chemistry, hematology, coagulation, complement, inflammatory, urinalysis were performed. The percentage of participants with clinically meaningful changes were reported. Clinical meaningfulness was determined by the investigator.

Percentage of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Changes in Vital Signs
Up to Week 221

Vital sign measurements including heart rate, respiratory rate, body temperature, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse pressure were assessed. Percentage of participants with clinically meaningful changes in the vital signs were reported. Clinically meaningfulness was determined by the investigator.

Percentage of Participants With Clinically Meaningful Changes in Electrocardiograms (ECGs) Parameters
Up to Week 221

The ECG parameters included ventricular rate, PR interval, QRS duration, QTc, QT corrected using the Fridericia's formula (QTcF), QT corrected using the Bazett's formula (QTcB), and overall interpretation. Percentage of participants with clinically meaningful changes in the ECG parameters were reported. Clinical meaningfulness was determined by the investigator.

Percentage of Participants Who Received At Least One Concomitant Medication
Up to Week 221

Concomitant medications include medications that participants were exposed to on or after the first dose of ISIS 721744 in the OLE study. Percentage of participants who received at least one concomitant medication were reported.

Time-normalized Number of HAE Attacks (Per Month) From Week 1 to Week 17
Week 1 to Week 17

The Week 1 to end of on-treatment period HAE attack rate was calculated for each participant as number of HAE attacks occurring from Week 1 to 28 days after the last dose date divided by the number of days the participant contributed to the period multiplied by 28 days. An HAE attack was defined as an event with signs or symptoms consistent with an attack in at least 1 of the locations: peripheral angioedema (cutaneous swelling involving an extremity, the face, neck, torso, and/or genitourinary region), abdominal angioedema (abdominal pain, with or without abdominal distention, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea), laryngeal angioedema (stridor, dyspnea, difficulty speaking, difficulty swallowing, throat tightening, or swelling of the tongue, palate, uvula, or larynx).

Up to 176 days

The safety and tolerability of multiple doses of Donidalorsen will be assessed by determining the incidence, severity, and dose relationship of adverse events that are related to treatment with Donidalorsen.

Peak plasma Concentration (Cmax) of Donidalorsen
Up to 176 days

Maximum Donidalorsen plasma concentration, Cmax (ug/mL) will be assessed following SC administration

Time to peak plasma Concentration (Tmax) of Donidalorsen

Frequently asked questions about Donidalorsen

What is Donidalorsen used for?

Donidalorsen is an investigational drug being studied for the prophylactic treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE), a condition characterized by recurrent episodes of severe swelling. It is also being evaluated in healthy volunteers. Donidalorsen is not yet approved and is in clinical development.

What does Donidalorsen target?

Donidalorsen targets KLKB1, which encodes plasma prekallikrein. It is an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) designed to reduce the production of prekallikrein, a protein involved in the pathway that leads to swelling attacks in hereditary angioedema.

Who makes Donidalorsen?

Donidalorsen is being developed by Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol IONS.

What phase is Donidalorsen in?

Donidalorsen is in clinical development. It has completed Phase 2 and Phase 3 trials and is currently being studied in a Phase 3 trial in children with hereditary angioedema. It is not FDA approved.

What clinical trials is Donidalorsen in?

Donidalorsen has been studied in several trials, including NCT05139810 (OASIS-HAE), a completed Phase 3 study in participants with HAE, and NCT05392114, an active Phase 3 long-term safety study. A Phase 3 trial in children (NCT07298447) is currently recruiting.

Is Donidalorsen the same as IONIS-PKK-LRx?

Yes, Donidalorsen is also known as ISIS 721744 or IONIS-PKK-LRx, as referenced in clinical trial titles. These names refer to the same investigational drug.
