Brief summary
The purpose of this clinical study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Alpha-1 MP in adult Alpha1-antitrypsin deficient patients.
Detailed description
The objective of this clinical trial (STAMP: Safety and Tolerability of Alpha-1 Modified Process) is to study the safety and tolerability of Alpha-1 MP in adult Alpha 1-antitrypsin deficient subjects as reported over 20 weeks of therapy. The primary objective is to describe the nature and frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events with treatment-emergent defined as any adverse event occurring after the start of the first study drug infusion.

| Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Defined as Any Adverse Event (AE) Occurring During or After the Start of the First Study Drug Infusion. | 24 weeks | An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or clinical investigation subject administered with a pharmaceutical product. The adverse event does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of an investigational product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. |

Outcome results
Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Defined as Any Adverse Event (AE) Occurring During or After the Start of the First Study Drug Infusion.
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or clinical investigation subject administered with a pharmaceutical product. The adverse event does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of an investigational product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.
Time frame: 24 weeks
Population: 38 subjects received study medication and one subject discontinued from the study due to an AE. Therefore, 37 subjects completed the study. 18 subjects were naive ((i.e., never having received previous Alpha-1 protease inhibitor augmentation therapy) and 19 subjects were non-naive.
