Filter by:This is a multiple dose, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of belcesiran to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD in adult patients with PiZZ AATD-associated liver disease (AATLD). The study will be conducted in 3 separate cohorts. A total of up to 16 participants may be enrolled in Cohort 1 and 2. A total number of 30 subjects will be enrolled in cohort 3. The 3 cohorts are differentiated by the duration of the treatment period, the number of doses administered, and the timing of the second liver biopsy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 72 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) and 180 mg/kg Alpha-1 15%, administered as a single-dose subcutaneous (SC) infusion and subsequently as weekly SC infusions over 8 weeks in participants with Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD).
The purpose of the study is to determine if Liquid Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor (Human) (Liquid Alpha1-PI) plus SMT can reduce the proportion of participants dying or requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission on or before Day 29 or who are dependent on high flow oxygen devices or invasive mechanical ventilation on Day 29 versus placebo plus SMT in hospitalized participants with COVID-19.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of VX-864 in PiZZ subjects.
This study is composed of two parts. Part A: will test single doses of ZF874 in a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled and dose-escalating design (except Group 7, which will be open-label and without placebo). Up to 7 groups of 6-8 healthy volunteers will receive an oral dose of ZF874 or matching placebo (6 active: 2 placebo in Groups 1-6; 6 active in Group 7). The dosing of the first 2 subjects (1 active and 1 placebo) will take place before dosing of the remainder of the group in Groups 1-6, with morning doses given in the fasted state. The dose will be escalated only if the safety and tolerability of the previous highest dose are acceptable, and the plasma concentrations of ZF874 are predicted to remain below the toxicokinetic exposure limit, as determined by the Safety Review Group. Group 7 will consist of 6 subjects, all of whom will receive ZF874 after consuming a standard high-fat breakfast. Dosing of the first 2 subjects before the rest of the group is not required in Group 7, as 6 subjects have already safely received ZF874 at this dose in Group 3 and 12 subjects have already safely received higher doses in Groups 4 and 5. The dose selected for Part A, Group 7 was chosen as the dose has previously been given to subjects fasted in Group 3, and it was safe and well tolerated, allowing for comparison for the food effect, and higher doses have been tested in Part A with no safety concerns. Part B: Multiple Ascending Doses in subjects carrying at least one Z mutated alpha-1-antitrypsin (Z-A1AT) allele (PiXZ subjects): Up to 4 groups of up to 5 PiXZ subjects will be enrolled in Part B (Groups 1-4). In Group 1, up to 4 subjects will receive twice daily doses of either ZF874 or placebo on 28 consecutive days. The dose level (dose and dose regimen) selected for Part B Group 1 will be based on review of the available results from Part A. In Groups 2-4, up to 5 PiXZ subjects will receive ZF874 twice daily by mouth for 28 days; no subjects will receive placebo. The dose for Groups 2 - 4 will not exceed the doses already given in Part A.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ARALAST NP A1PI augmentation therapy 120 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) body weight (BW)/week compared with an external placebo comparator on the loss of emphysematous lung tissue measured by lung density change in participants with A1PI deficiency and COPD-E.
According to the Respreeza® Summary of Product Characteristics, the initial infusions must be administered under the supervision of a health professional experienced in the treatment of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, although subsequent infusions may be administered at home by the person responsible for care or by the patient. Clinical data on self-administration of Respreeza® are however limited and the grounds for self-administration are left to the assessment of the attending physician, who needs to ensure that appropriate training is delivered. In this context, CSL Behring would like to run a clinical study in order to assess the effectiveness of a home self-administration learning program in terms of switching to self-administration, and the long term maintenance of this administration.
The current study population will consist of adult patients with congenital alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency who have moderate or severe airflow limitation (forced expiratory volume in 1 second 40% ≤ [FEV1] ≤ 80% of predicted) and FEV1/slow vital capacity [SVC] ≤ 70% and who have not experienced two or more moderate or one or more severe exacerbations of COPD during the past year. A total of 220 patients will be recruited, and after 4 weeks practice inhaling saline with the nebulizer, will be randomized 1:1 to inhale either 80 mg/day "Kamada-AAT for Inhalation" or a placebo with identical appearance. Patients will be treated for 104 weeks and then followed up for a further 26 weeks. Over this time there will be 13 visits to the clinical site and in addition the patients will be required to fill out a daily e-diary.
European Alpha-1 Research Collaboration (EARCO) is a pan-European network committed to promoting clinical research and education in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD). The core project is the pan-European AATD Registry, a collaboration which will offer longitudinal real-world data for patients with AATD. EARCO has a global vision to increase the early diagnosis of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), understand better the natural history of the disease and ensure optimal access to effective care, placing emphasis on ambitions that serve collective needs of the AATD research community and bringing people with AAT deficiency to the centre of the research environment in a real-world context. The study population will consist of individuals with diagnosed severe alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency regardless of the clinical expression and severity. The study objectives are: - To generate long-term, high-quality clinical data covering a pan-European population of AATD individuals in all age groups and all stages of disease severity. - To understand the natural history and prognosis of AATD better with the goal to create and validate prognostic tools to support medical decision making. - To investigate the effect of augmentation therapy on the progression of emphysema and to examine its impact on clinical and functional outcomes, such as FEV1, quality of life and mortality in a "real-life" population - To learn more about the course of the disease in patients suffering from severe AATD with genotypes different from Pi*ZZ We expect to collect detailed information from around 1,000 patients from at least 10 countries during the first year, expanding to 3,000 from more than 25 countries over the 5 years of the CRC and continue a long term follow-up.

This is a research study to test an experimental study drug (belcesiran, also known as DCR-A1AT). This drug is being tested to see if it helps people with a rare condition known as Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, or A1ATD. Prior to initiation of this study belcesiran had not yet been tested in humans. All study participants will be randomly assigned to either receive the study drug or a placebo. This will allow for the sponsor to compare the effects of the study drug with that of the placebo. A placebo looks like the study drug but does not contain any of the study drug. The main purpose of the first part of the study is to evaluate the safety profile of the study drug in people who do not have A1ATD. This part of the study will also help find the dose of the study drug that has an acceptable safety profile for testing.
