Eligibility
Recruits 5 paediatric patients.
- Vulnerable Population
- Pediatric participants aged 6 to <18 years are included. The protocol requires informed consent and informed assent (if applicable); assent and age‑appropriate ICFs are provided (documents exist for Assent Child 6 to 10 years, Assent Child 11 to 14 years, Assent Child 15 to 17 years, caregiver and adult ICFs).
Inclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- Be ≥6 and <18 years of age, at the time of signing the informed consent and informed assent (if applicable).\n- Have a history of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, based on examination of a lung biopsy, bronchoalveolar lavage cytology, or a high-resolution computed tomogram of the chest.\n- Have a positive serum anti-GM-CSF autoantibody test result confirming aPAP prior to screening.\n- Have a hemoglobin (Hb)-adjusted diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) ≤70% predicted at Screening."}
Exclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- Have a diagnosis of hereditary (congenital) or secondary PAP, or a metabolic disorder of surfactant production.\n- Have undergone treatment with WLL within 1 month of Baseline."}

- {"endpoint_text":"- AEs, including clinically significant findings on pulmonary function tests and safety laboratory assessments and adverse events of special interest (AESIs; hypersensitivity and chest pain).","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Safety assessments including adverse event reporting, pulmonary function test abnormalities, laboratory safety results, and pre-specified AESIs (hypersensitivity, chest pain)."}
- {"endpoint_text":"- Titers of anti-GM-CSF antibodies at Baseline and after 4, 12, 24, 48, and 52 weeks.","definition_or_measurement_approach":"Measurement of anti-GM-CSF antibody titers at specified timepoints (Baseline, Weeks 4, 12, 24, 48, 52)."}
