KONFIDENT was a multinational, randomized, double-blind,
placebo-controlled, phase 3, crossover study of 136
patients from 17 countries. Study participants were
randomized to receive either placebo, EKTERLY 300 mg, or
EKTERLY 600 mg to treat 3 attacks in
a 3-way crossover
design using 1 of 6 treatment sequences.2,3

EKTERLY halts HAE attacks fast for rapid symptom relief1,2
KONFIDENT EFFICACY
Primary Endpoint: median time to the beginning of symptom relief1,2
-
Ekterly
1.8
hours*
-
-
Placebo
6.7
hours

*Based on prespecifying that attacks with incomplete data were censored at timepoint zero. Analysis included in label assigns these attacks a value of 12 hours, resulting in a median of 2.0 hours.1,2
One-dose symptom relief


96% of attacks
that
reached the primary
endpoint achieved
symptom relief
with only 1 dose3
Patients reported rapid time to symptom relief with EKTERLY1,2
Time to Beginning of Symptom Relief Within 12 Hours of Dosing1,2,4*
• Some patients experienced symptom relief as early as 30 minutes after administration4


Time to symptom relief was
consistent
across
attack
locations,
severities, and
patient
demographics2

†KONFIDENT-S is a multicenter, open-label extension trial of
134 adult and adolescent (≥12 years of age) patients. Study
participants had a confirmed diagnosis of HAE and ≥2 attacks
within
3 months and were enrolled after completing the
KONFIDENT phase 3 trial or de novo.5,6
‡Patients with laryngeal attacks were instructed to treat immediately with conventional on-demand treatment if laryngeal attack symptoms worsened after initial treatment with EKTERLY. 10
