Participant flow

Recruitment details

This study had 2 Groups: Group A participants did not have a liver biopsy and Group B participants have 2 liver biopsies performed over the course of the study.

Pre-assignment details

A total of 14 participants were enrolled from 23 February 2023 to 03 November 2023 in this study. Study drug dosing and efficacy assessments were terminated early due to Sponsor decision, therefore evaluation of efficacy outcome measure was not completed.

Outcome results

Primary

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

Time frame: From Baseline at Week 48

Population: Data was not collected for this Outcome Measure as the study drug dosing was terminated prior to any participant reaching Week 48.

Secondary

Change in Blood Antigenic AAT Levels

Time frame: From Baseline up to Week 48

Population: Data was not collected for this Outcome Measure as the study drug dosing was terminated prior to any participant reaching Week 48.

Secondary

Change in Blood Functional AAT Levels

Time frame: From Baseline up to Week 48

Population: Data was not collected for this Outcome Measure as the study drug dosing was terminated prior to any participant reaching Week 48.

Secondary

Change in Blood Z-polymer Levels

Time frame: From Baseline up to Week 48

Population: Data was not collected for this Outcome Measure as the study drug dosing was terminated prior to any participant reaching Week 48.

Secondary

Group B: Change in Z-polymer Accumulation in the Liver

Time frame: From Baseline up to Week 48

Population: No participants in Group B underwent a second liver biopsy at week 24 or week 48 as the study drug dosing was terminated prior to any participant reaching week 24 or week 48. Therefore, data was not collected for this Outcome Measure.

Secondary

Safety and Tolerability as Assessed by Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

Time frame: Day 1 up to Week 52

Population: Safety set included all participants who had received at least 1 dose of study drug in this study.
