Active clinical trials for "Alpha 1-Antitrypsin Deficiency"

The purpose of this study was to generate sufficient safety and tolerability information in support of an increase in the infusion rate of intravenous GLASSIA in the prescribing information from 0.04 to 0.2 mL/kg/min.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of alvelestat (an oral neutrophil elastase inhibitor) on blood and sputum biomarkers in patients with PiZZ, null or rare variant phenotype/genotype alpha-1 anti-trypsin deficient lung disease. Change in a number of different blood and sputum biomarkers related to lung damage, inflammation and elastase activity will be measured over a 12 week period. The effect on lung function and respiratory symptoms will also be measured.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single- and multiple-ascending doses of ARO-AAT in healthy adult volunteers.

This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of VX-864 in PiZZ subjects.

Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT), trade name (Glassia ®), is being explored in this phase I/II trial as a potential disease modifying agent in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) based on its anti-inflammatory properties. AAT is an acute stress reactant protein that increases during inflammation. In T1DM inflammation serves a major role in disease progression.

Assessment of the safety and efficacy of intramuscular (IM) administration of a recombinant adenoassociated virus (rAAV) alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) vector (rAAV1-CB-hAAT) in AAT-deficient adults at three dosage levels [6.0 × 10e11, 1.9 × 10e12 and 6.0 × 10e12 vector genome particles (vg) per kg body weight].

Individuals with a deficiency of the alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) protein are at risk for developing emphysema and liver damage. Researchers have developed a way to introduce normal AAT genes into muscle cells with the expectation that the AAT protein may be produced at normal levels. This study will evaluate the safety of the experimental gene transfer procedure in individuals with AAT deficiency. The study will also determine what dose may be required to achieve normal levels of AAT.

The purpose of this clinical study (ChAMP - Comparability pharmacokinetics of Alpha-1 Modified Process) is to compare the pharmacokinetic, safety and tolerability of Alpha-1 Proteinase Inhibitor (Human), modified process (Alpha-1 MP) and Prolastin in adult Alpha1-antitrypsin deficient patients. Patients will be infused intravenously with study drug on a weekly schedule for 24 weeks.

The primary purpose of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of intravenous Aralast Fraction (Fr.) IV-1, a sterile, stable, lyophilized preparation of functionally intact human Alpha1- Proteinase Inhibitor (α1-PI). This pharmacokinetic study will be a randomized controlled clinical trial with a cross-over design. Twenty-four subjects will be enrolled into the study. Overall study duration will be approximately 6-8 months.

Individuals with a deficiency of the Alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) protein are at risk for developing emphysema and liver damage. Researchers have developed a way to introduce normal AAT genes into muscle cells so that the AAT protein is produced at normal levels. This study will evaluate the safety of the experimental gene transfer procedure in individuals with AAT deficiency.
