2. Have a diagnosis of acquired angioedema or be known to have C1 INH antibodies.

3. Have a history of allergic reaction to C1 INH products, including CINRYZE (or any of the components of CINRYZE) or other blood products.

4. Have received C1 INH therapy or any blood products within 3 days before the first dose of study drug.

5. Have had signs or symptoms of an angioedema attack within 2 days before the first dose of study drug.

6. Have any change (start, stop, or change in dose) in androgen therapy (eg, danazol, oxandrolone, stanozolol, testosterone), tranexamic acid, epsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA), or other antifibrinolytics within 14 days before the first dose of study drug.
