“The data presented at HAEA adds to the growing evidence that there remains an important unmet need for both people using only on-demand therapies as well as those on long-term prophylaxis,” said Andrew Crockett, Chief Executive Officer of KalVista. “People living with HAE clearly recognize the start of their HAE attacks and understand that they should treat them as early as possible to enable return to normal activities, yet often delay or deny themselves treatment due to the many challenges associated with injection or infusions. The data shows that these challenges impact prophylaxis users, many of whom still suffer from breakthrough attacks, as much as those who use only on-demand medications. By offering the first oral, on-demand medication in sebetralstat, we intend to address this gap in treatment as well as enable future physician/patient discussions about new options that may allow people with HAE to live better lives.”
