Eligibility
Recruits 38 Vulnerable population selection flag is true in the record. Inclusion criterion 7 requires participants to be "Willing and able to provide written informed consent indicating that they understand the purpose of, and procedures required for the study and are willing to participate in it." No procedures for assent or parental consent for minors are described (study population ages 18–80)..
- Pregnancy Exclusion
- 6. 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. †Women of childbearing potential are defined as premenopausal and not surgically sterile, post tubal ligation, nor documented as infertile due to a concurrent medical condition. *True abstinence: When this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. (Periodic abstinence [e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods], declaration of abstinence for the duration of a study, and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.)

- {"criterion_text":"- 6. If the participant has received 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 of this study, while participating in the study."}

Endpoints
Primary endpoints
- {"endpoint_text":"- The primary PK endpoint is the steady-state AUC of alpha1-PI over the weekly dosing interval (from 0 to 7 days) (AUC0-7 days) in the IV Treatment Period 1 and in the SC Treatment Period 2 for both dose levels.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"AUC0-7 days measured at steady-state; main objective describes measurement of alpha1-PI AUC using an antigenic content assay to compare SC 90 and 180 mg/kg/week vs IV 60 and 120 mg/kg/week over 8 weeks."}
Secondary endpoints
- {"endpoint_text":"- Steady-state mean trough alpha1-PI levels, following Liquid Alpha1-PI IV and Alpha-1 15% SC administration, determined as follows: • Liquid Alpha1-PI IV administration in Period 1: the average value of the steady-state trough alpha1-PI measurements obtained at Weeks 6, 7, 8, and 9. • Alpha-1 15% SC administration in Period 2: the average value of the steady-state trough alpha1-PI measurements obtained at Weeks 14, 15, 16, and 17.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Mean trough alpha1-PI in steady-state defined as average of specified weekly trough measurements (Weeks 6–9 for IV; Weeks 14–17 for SC)."}
- {"endpoint_text":"- Exploratory Pharmacokinetic Endpoints: The following exploratory PK endpoints will be assessed in this study: • Cmax • tmax • CL for IV and CL/F for SC • t1/2 • Corrected AUC0-7 days, with correction based on the endogenous alpha1-PI concentration measured at Week 20 (4 weeks after the last IP infusion).","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Standard PK metrics: Cmax, tmax, clearance (CL for IV; CL/F for SC), terminal half-life (t1/2), and corrected AUC0-7 days with correction using endogenous alpha1-PI at Week 20 (4 weeks after last infusion)."}
- {"endpoint_text":"- Safety Endpoints: The following safety endpoints will be assessed in this study: • Adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and AEs and SAEs leading to discontinuation • COPD exacerbations • Vital signs (heart rate [HR], blood pressure (BP), respiratory rate [RR], and temperature [T]) • Pulmonary function tests (PFTs)• Clinical laboratory parameters including: • Immunogenicity assessments","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Safety assessed by AEs/SAEs, COPD exacerbations, vital signs, pulmonary function tests, clinical labs and immunogenicity assessments as listed."}
