KalVista Pharmaceuticals Receives Positive CHMP Opinion for Sebetralstat for the Treatment of Hereditary Angioedema Attacks

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. & SALISBURY, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KalVista Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: KALV) today announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has adopted a positive opinion recommending marketing authorization for sebetralstat, a novel oral plasma kallikrein inhibitor, for symptomatic treatment of acute attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older. The European Commission (EC) final decision is expected by early October. 'This positive CHMP opinion is an important step forward for people living with HAE in Europe, where there remains a high need for effective, easy-to-administer on-demand treatments,' said Ben Palleiko, CEO of KalVista. 'Coming just weeks after regulatory approvals in the US and UK, this milestone highlights the potential of sebetralstat to transform how HAE is managed globally. Sebetralstat is expected to become the first and only oral on-demand treatment for HAE available in Europe, bringing forward a new treatment approach that enables adherence to guidelines and empowers people to treat attacks quickly, wherever they occur.' The CHMP based its opinion on results from the phase 3 KONFIDENT clinical trial, which was the largest clinical trial ever conducted in HAE. Data from KONFIDENT was published in the New England Journal of Medicine in May 2024, showing that sebetralstat achieved significantly faster symptom relief, reduction in attack severity and attack resolution than placebo, and was well-tolerated with a safety profile similar to placebo.1 The trial randomized 136 HAE patients from 66 clinical sites across 20 countries. 'Access to on-demand treatments that offer easy self-administration and rapid symptom relief is critical for patients living with HAE,' said Emel Aygören-Pürsün, M.D., Assistant Professor, Internal Medicine and Hemostaseology, Department for Children and Adolescents, University Hospital Frankfurt. 'Until now, on-demand therapies for HAE attacks required parenteral administration via injections. The positive CHMP opinion for sebetralstat is an essential move toward a novel, long-awaited oral on-demand option that could help patients treat attacks early and independently, as advocated by guidelines, with the goal of improving outcomes and normalizing lives.' Sebetralstat is approved in the United States and United Kingdom under the brand name EKTERLY® for the treatment of HAE attacks in people 12 years of age and older. It is currently under review with regulatory authorities in Japan as well as multiple other territories. About Hereditary Angioedema Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disease resulting in deficiency or dysfunction in the C1 esterase inhibitor (C1INH) protein and subsequent uncontrolled activation of the kallikrein-kinin system. People living with HAE experience painful and debilitating attacks of tissue swelling in various locations of the body that can be life-threatening depending on the area affected. Treatment guidelines recommend treating attacks as early as possible to prevent progression of swelling and shorten the time to attack resolution, and to consider treatment for all attacks, regardless of anatomic location or severity. About Sebetralstat Sebetralstat is a novel plasma kallikrein inhibitor approved in the United States and United Kingdom for the treatment of acute attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in people 12 years of age and older. It is the first and only oral on-demand treatment for HAE. With ongoing studies exploring its use in children aged two to 11 and multiple regulatory applications under review in key global markets, sebetralstat has the potential to become the foundational therapy for HAE management worldwide.
