Alpha 1-Antitrypsin Deficiency

The Alpha-1 Research Registry is a confidential database made up of individuals diagnosed with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (Alpha-1) and individuals identified as Alpha-1 carriers. The Registry was established to facilitate research initiatives and promote the development of improved treatments and a cure for Alpha-1.

This study is designed to compare two different weekly doses of a medicine called Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor given by injection under the skin with the standard doses of the same medicine given through a vein. Adults with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency will take part. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups, and both the study doctors and participants will know which treatment is being given. The main goals of the study are to understand how the body processes the medicine (pharmacokinetics) and to assess how safe and well tolerated the different weekly doses are.

This is a Phase 1, open-label, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple dose (MD) study of AIR-001 in participants with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) due to PiZZ genotype.

Emphysema linked to alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (DAAT): towards a better prediction of risks Emphysema caused by alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (DAAT) is a rare genetic disorder that can lead to serious complications, such as the need for a lung transplant or death, affecting up to 15% of patients. The only specific treatment available is a weekly infusion of alpha-1-antitrypsin (IV-AAT), an expensive and burdensome therapy. Currently, there is no reliable model to predict the course of the disease in these patients. Our study, conducted in several French hospitals, aims to develop a prediction tool combining clinical, biological, functional data and advanced medical image analysis (lung CT). This model will make it possible to identify the most at-risk patients, in order to better adapt their care, anticipate transplant needs and avoid unnecessary treatments for low-risk patients. Ultimately, this approach could also improve access to care for patients who need it most, while optimizing health system resources.

This is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label, dose-exploration (Phase 1) and dose-expansion (Phase 2) study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK/PD, and efficacy of BEAM-302 in adult patients with AATD-associated lung disease and/or liver disease and to determine the optimal biological dose (OBD).

This is a study of gene therapy to treat alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency. This study aims to treat AAT deficiency with a single administration of AAV8hAAT(AVL), a gene therapy that codes for an oxidation resistant form of the AAT protein, which if safe and if efficacious, will protect the lung on a persistent basis. We hope to learn the safety/toxicity and initial evidence of efficacy of intravenous delivery of this gene therapy to alpha 1-antitrypsin deficient individuals.

Alpha-1 Anti-trypsin Deficiency (AATD) is a genetic disease with lung and liver disease presentations. Presentations are variable in the heterozygous population, the most predominant genotype being PiMZ. The purpose of this study in PiMZ heterozygous patients is to examine the density of the lung as measured by chest computed tomography (CT) and determine if existing emphysema predicts changes in the rate of subsequent emphysema or changes in CT, serum or plasma biomarkers of interest. The overarching goal is to develop biomarkers pertinent to the PiMZ patient that can be used in interventional trials since lung function changes do not typically inform disease progression in AATD.

The Alpha-1 Coded Testing (ACT) Study was established to study genetic testing and outcomes of individuals at risk for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency.

The purpose of this study is to look at how Alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency and Cystic Fibrosis (CF) affect white blood cells in the lungs, called macrophages, and their ability to work.

The Sponsor is developing KB408, a replication-defective, non-integrating herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-derived vector engineered to deliver functional full-length human SERPINA1 to the airways of people with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) via nebulization. This study is designed to evaluate safety and pharmacodynamics of KB408 in adults with AATD with a PI\*ZZ or PI\*ZNull genotype. Three planned dose levels of KB408 will be evaluated in single dose escalation cohorts. Repeat dosing will be evaluated at the mid dose level. Subjects taking intravenous AAT augmentation therapy are not required to wash out from IV AAT in the low and mid dose cohorts. In the repeat dose and the high dose cohorts, subjects must wash out from IV AAT for at least 10 days, as applicable.

Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency is the most common congenital disease of the respiratory system, leading to early pulmonary emphysema or bronchiectasis. Pulmonary involvement significantly accelerates active cigarette smoking. Patients with alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency may also have liver cirrhosis, vasculitis, skin or intestinal disorders. The AATD Registry is a non-interventional multicenter retrospective prospective longitudinal follow-up of patients with alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency. The aim of the AATD National Registry is to collect and analyze clinical data in patients with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency.
