Abstract: Aspects of the present application provide for methods and apparatuses for modeling, simulating, and treating hereditary angioedema (HAE). According to some aspects, a quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) model is provided for simulating the efficacy of drug intervention under context of HAE pathophysiology. The QSP model may comprise a plurality of individual models including one or more PK models and/or one or more PD models for simulating drug exposure, target engagements and acute attack rate in HAE patients. A virtual patient population representing a plurality of virtual patients may be developed and input into the QSP model for executing a virtual clinical trial. In some embodiments, the QSP model may be used evaluate a response of the contact system and/or an effectiveness of a therapeutic intervention for treating HAE.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods of evaluating a subject, e.g., a subject at risk for or suffering from a pKal-mediated or bradykinin-mediated disorder, based on values (e.g., percentages) of intact and/or cleaved kininogen in a sample of the subject. Provided methods permit analysis of patients with plasma kallikrein-mediated angioedema (KMA), or other diseases mediated by pKal useful in the evaluation and treatment. Such methods can involve the use of a detection agent that preferentially binds cleaved kininogen or intact kininogen.
