KalVista Pharmaceuticals shares latest sebetralstat findings at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology 2025 Annual Meeting

KalVista Pharmaceuticals announced the presentation of novel sebetralstat data related to laryngeal hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks and adolescents with HAE at the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) / World Allergy Organization (WAO) 2025 Joint Congress taking place in San Diego, California from 28 February – 3 March 2025.

Ben Palleiko, CEO of KalVista, said: “The growing body of data from the KONFIDENT-S study consistently demonstrate that sebetralstat enabled early treatment and fast symptom relief from HAE attacks, regardless of age, attack location, or severity. This is especially critical for vulnerable populations, such as those experiencing laryngeal attacks or adolescents whose only approved options are injectable on-demand treatments. Sebetralstat, if approved, would be the first oral on-demand treatment for HAE attacks, with the potential to address some of the most significant unmet needs in HAE.”
