Study Comparing Weekly Intravenous Administration of OctaAlpha1 With a Marketed Preparation Glassia® in Subjects With Alpha-1-antitrypsin Deficiency

• Status: Withdrawn
• Trial end date: 2019-12-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This randomized trial is being conducted to show non-inferiority of OctaAlpha1 compared to Glassia® in terms of the serum trough levels at steady state. This will be conducted in individuals with alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency and clinical evidence of emphysema.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: Octapharma
• Treatments: Alpha 1-Antitrypsin

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Any subject who needs chronic IV augmentation and maintenance therapy with A1PI because of congenital alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor (A1PI) deficiency and clinically diagnosed emphysema

• ≥18 years of age

• Individuals with A1PI serum concentration <11 µM at screening

• Following bronchodilators:

• Initial FEV1(pred) between 25% and 75% or

• If the initial FEV1 was greater than 75% of predicted, a diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLC O) less than 70% of predicted

• Following bronchodilators: Initial forced expiratory volume/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) ratio less than 70%

• Non-smoking for at least 6 months before study treatment starts

Exclusion Criteria:

• Any inflammatory condition or malignant tumor in the 7 days before treatment starts that according to investigator judgment might influence the metabolism of an enzyme inhibitor such as A1PI

• More than one A1PI-deficiency related exacerbation and/or hospitalization during the 3 months before study treatment starts

• Known IgA deficiency with documented antibodies against IgA

• History of hypersensitivity to blood or plasma derived products, or any component of the product

• Known presence of antibodies against A1PI

• Seropositivity for HBsAg or HCV, HIV-1/2 IgG antibodies

• Administration of A1PI products in the 4 weeks before study treatment starts

• Participating in another clinical study currently or during the 3 months before study treatment starts.

• Live viral vaccination within the last month before study treatment starts

• A current life-threatening malignancy

• Emergency operation within 3 months before study treatment starts

• History of, or suspected, alcohol or drug abuse within 1 year before study treatment starts or currently on drug abuse therapy
