Criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

A clinical diagnosis of hereditary angioedema (HAE) Type 1 or Type 2, defined as having a C1-INH functional level and a C4 level below the lower limit of the normal (LLN) reference range, as assessed during the Screening period.
Access to and ability to use one or more acute medications approved by the relevant competent authority for the treatment of acute attacks of HAE
Subjects must be medically appropriate for on-demand treatment as the sole medicinal management for their HAE during the study.
Subjects must have a specified number of expert-confirmed attacks during the run-in period of 56 days from the Screening visit.
Acceptable effective contraception
Written informed consent

Key Exclusion Criteria:

Pregnancy or breast-feeding
Any clinically significant medical condition or medical history that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor, would interfere with the subject's safety or ability to participate in the study
Any laboratory parameter abnormality that, in the opinion of the Investigator, is clinically significant and relevant for this study
Severe hypersensitivity to multiple medicinal products or severe hypersensitivity/ anaphylaxis with unclear etiology
Use of C1-INH within 14 days or use of androgens or tranexamic acid within 28 days prior to the Screening visit for prophylaxis of HAE attacks, or initiation of these drugs during the study
Current participation in any other investigational drug study or received another investigational drug within 30 days of the Screening visit
Prior enrollment in a BCX7353 study

Part 1: The Rate of Expert-confirmed HAE Attacks During Dosing in the Entire 24-week Treatment Period (Day 1 to Day 168)

The angioedema event rate and the treatment comparisons between each berotralstat dose and placebo in the rate of expert-confirmed angioedema events during the entire dosing period was analyzed using a negative binomial regression model. The number of expert-confirmed angioedema events was included as the dependent variable, the treatment was included as a fixed effect, the stratification variable (baseline monthly angioedema event rate) and study (for the combined study analysis) were included as covariates, and the logarithm of duration on treatment was included as an offset variable. The estimated rate of angioedema events for each treatment group, the treatment differences expressed as the angioedema event rate ratio (berotralstat) over placebo rate ratio), and their associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were provided from the negative binomial regression model.

Part 1: Rate of Expert-confirmed Angioedema Events During Dosing in the Effective Treatment Period

The rate of expert-confirmed angioedema events for the effective treatment period gives an analysis of the efficacy of active treatment after berotralstat had reached steady-state concentrations, given the effective half-life of 150 mg berotralstat in Study BCX7353-106 (Study 106) of 89 hours.

Part 1: Change From Baseline in Angioedema Quality of Life (AE- QoL) Questionnaire at Week 24 (Total Score)

Change in Quality of Life, on a 1-100 scale, where higher scores indicate more impairment and a decrease (change with a negative value) in AE-QoL questionnaire scores indicates an improvement in the subject's QoL. The minimum clinically important difference (MCID) for the AE-QoL questionnaire is -6 (total score). The AE-QoL is only validated for adults; however, data were collected on all adult and adolescent study subjects.
