Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Have a diagnosis of congenital Alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) with an allelic combination of ZZ, SZ, Z(null), (null)(null), S(null), or "at-risk" alleles (subjects with "at-risk" alleles must be individually evaluated for eligibility by the Medical Monitor).
- Have a documented pre-Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor (PI) augmentation therapy serum alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) level <11 micrometer (μM) (80 milligrams per decilitre (mg/dL) if measured by radial immunodiffusion or 50 mg/dL if measured by nephelometry).
- Currently receiving Alpha1-PI augmentation therapy or has received Alpha1-PI augmentation therapy within the past. If the subject is currently receiving Alpha1-PI augmentation therapy of any kind, he/she must be willing to discontinue that treatment at the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit and remain off any kind of Alpha1-PI treatment, other than the IPs for this study, while participating in the study. Note: Subjects must not be naïve to Alpha1-PI augmentation therapy for study participation.
- At the Screening Visit, have a post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume (FEV1) ≥30% and <80% of predicted and FEV1/forced vital capacity (FVC) <70% (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) stage II or III).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Have had a moderate or severe Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation during the 4 weeks before the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit.
- Have history of lung or liver transplant.
- Have any lung surgery during the past 2 years (excluding lung biopsy).
- Have severe concomitant disease (example, congestive heart failure, clinically significant pulmonary fibrosis, malignant disease [except for skin cancers other than melanoma], history of acute hypersensitivity pneumonitis reaction, or current chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis).
- Females who are pregnant, breastfeeding or, if of child-bearing potential, unwilling to practice a highly effective method of contraception (oral, injectable, or implanted hormonal methods of contraception, placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS), condom or occlusive cap with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository, male sterilization, or true abstinence) throughout the study.
- Have smoked during the past 6 months or a positive urine cotinine test at the Screening Visit that is due to smoking.
- Participate in another Investigational product (IP) study within one month prior to the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit.
- Have history of anaphylaxis or severe systemic response to any plasma-derived Alpha1-PI preparation or other blood product(s).
- Use systemic steroids above a stable dose equivalent to 5 mg/day prednisone (i.e., 10 mg every 2 days) within the 4 weeks prior to the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit. It is recommended to maintain the same dose throughout the study.
- Use systemic or aerosolized antibiotics for a chronic COPD exacerbation within the 4 weeks prior to the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit.
- Have known selective or severe Immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency.

Cohort 1: Treatment Period 1 (Alpha-1 15%, 72 mg/kg)
Cohort 1: Single-Dose Data Evaluation Period (Liquid Alpha 1-Proteinase Inhibitor 60 mg/kg)
Cohort 1: Treatment Period 2 (Alpha-1 15%, 72 mg/kg)
Cohort 2: Treatment Period 1 (Alpha-1 15%, 144 mg/kg)
Cohort 2: Single-Dose Data Evaluation Period (Liquid Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor 120 mg/kg)
Cohort 2: Treatment Period 2 (Alpha-1 15%, 144 mg/kg)
Participants will receive Alpha-1 15% 72 mg/kg, single weekly subcutaneous (SC) infusion in treatment-period 1 (Single-Dose) at Week 1.
Following treatment period 1, participants in Cohort 1 will enter 21 days of washout/serial pharmacokinetic (PK) phase and then the single-dose data evaluation period. During the single-dose data evaluation phase, Liquid Alpha1- Proteinase Inhibitor (PI) 60 mg/kg, weekly intravenous (IV) Infusions will be administered from intravenous-dose Week 1 (single-dose Week 5) for up to Week 78, with the last IV dose given 1 week prior to the first repeat Alpha-1 15% SC dose.
Following treatment period 1 and single-dose data evaluation period, participants in Cohort 1 will enter treatment period 2 (Repeat-Dose) and will receive Alpha-1 15% 72 mg/kg, for 8 weekly SC infusions.
Participants will receive Alpha-1 15% 144 mg/kg, single weekly SC infusion in treatment-period 1 (Single-Dose) at Week 1.
Following treatment period 1, participants in Cohort 2 will enter 21 days of washout/serial pharmacokinetic (PK) phase and then the single-dose data evaluation phase. During the single-dose data evaluation phase, Liquid Alpha1-PI 120 mg/kg, weekly IV Infusions will be administered from intravenous-dose Week 1 (single-dose Week 5) for up to Week 78, with the last IV dose given 1 week prior to the first repeat Alpha-1 15% SC dose.
Following treatment period 1 and single-dose data evaluation phase, participants in Cohort 2 will enter treatment period 2 (Repeat-Dose) and will receive Alpha-1 15% 144 mg/kg, for 8 weekly SC infusions.
