Recruitment details

There were 3 parts in the study: Parts A1, A2 and B. As pre-specified in SAP, data collected for the placebo group for Parts A1, A2 and B were pooled and reported as a single combined arm (Parts A1, A2 and B Combined: Placebo) and data collected for VX-814 400 mg for Parts A1 and A2 were pooled and reported as a single combined arm (Parts A1 and A2 Combined: VX-814 400 milligrams \[mg\]) in the below presented results.

Pre-assignment details

This study was conducted in participants 18 through 80 of years of age, inclusive with the PiZZ genotype.

Outcome results

Primary

Change in Plasma Functional Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) Levels

Time frame: From Baseline at Day 28

Population: Full analysis set (FAS) included all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study drug. The overall number of participants analyzed signifies participants who were evaluable at the specified time point. As pre-specified in SAP, statistical comparison with placebo were planned only for VX-814 400 mg and 600 mg treatment arms.
