Be a woman of nonchildbearing potential. c. Be a woman declaring herself as either sexually abstinent or exclusively having female sexual partners. 7. Male subjects must comply with the following requirements for a duration of 90 days after last dose of study drug: a. Subjects with female partners of childbearing potential must agree to utilize at least 1 highly effective contraceptive method. At least 1 or more of the following methods are acceptable: § surgical sterilization (ie, vasectomy or bilateral occlusion of a female partner) § placement of an IUD or IUS § any form of hormonal contraception that is associated with inhibition of ovulation (oral, implantable, injectable, intravaginal, or transdermal) b. Male subjects who declare themselves as sexually abstinent are acceptable for the purposes of this study. c. Must abstain from sperm donation for a period of 90 days after last dose of study drug. 8.

In the opinion of the Investigator, the subject is expected to adequately comply with all required study procedures for the duration of the study. The subject must demonstrate adequate compliance with all study procedures required from the screening visit through randomization, including e-diary recording of HAE attacks beginning at the screening visit. |

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Any clinically significant medical or psychiatric condition or medical history that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor, would interfere with the subject's ability to participate in the study or increase the risk of participation for that subject. 2. Clinically significant abnormal ECG at the screening visit. This includes, but is not limited to, a QTcF > 470 msec, a PR > 220 msec, or ventricular and/or atrial premature contractions that are more frequent than occasional, and/or as couplets or higher in grouping. 3. Any clinically significant history of angina, myocardial infarction, syncope, clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias, left ventricular hypertrophy, cardiomyopathy, or any other cardiovascular abnormality. 4. Family history of sudden death from causes other than HAE. 5. History of or current implanted defibrillator or pacemaker. 6. Any abnormal laboratory or urinalysis parameter at screening that, in the opinion of the Investigator, is clinically significant and relevant for this study. A calculated creatinine clearance of ≤ 60 mL/min or AST or ALT value ≥ 2 times the upper limit of the normal reference range 7. Concurrent use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors from the screening visit or expected use at any time through the end of the study. 8. Use of a medication that is clinically known to induce or inhibit drug transporters at the screening visit or anticipated use through the followup visit, including no use for a minimum of 7 days prior to Day 1. 9. Use of a medication that is clinically known or suspected to prolong the QT interval at the screening visit or anticipated use through the follow-up visit, including no use for a minimum of 7 days prior to Day 1. 10. Use of a medication that primarily relies upon CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 for metabolism (eg, any P450 substrates listed on the Indiana University Clinical Pharmacology website) at the screening visit or anticipated use through the follow-up visit, including no use for a minimum of 7 days prior to Day 1. 11. Initiation of a progesterone contraceptive within 60 days of the screening visit (except subjects who switch from desogestrel). 12. Use of desogestrel (a progesterone contraceptive) is excluded; however, subjects who take a desogestrel-based contraceptive may switch to an injectable or implantable progesterone-only contraceptive at any time prior to randomization. 13. Use of an estrogen-containing hormonal contraceptive within 60 days of the screening visit. 14. Use within the 7 days prior to the screening visit or expected use at any time through the end of the study of C1 INH, androgens or tranexamic acid for prophylaxis of HAE attacks. Use of a C1 INH therapy for treatment of acute attacks is not excluded at any time. 15. Current participation in any other investigational drug study or received another investigational drug within 30 days of the screening visit. 16. History of alcohol or drug abuse within the previous year prior to the screening visit, or current evidence of substance dependence or abuse (self-reported alcoholic intake > 3 drinks/day). 17.
