long-term safety of alpha1-proteinase inhibitor (human) in japanese subjects with alpha1 antitrypsin deficiency (gti1401-ole)

Conditions: Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency

Summary: this is a multi-center, open-label study to evaluate the long-term safety of weekly intravenous (iv) infusions of 60 mg/kg alpha1-pi (human), modified process (alpha-1 mp) in adult participants with alpha1 antitrypsin deficiency (aatd) in japan who have completed study gti1401 (nct02870309).

this is a multi-center, open-label study to evaluate the long-term safety of weekly iv infusions of 60 mg/kg alpha-1 mp in adult participants with aatd in japan who have completed study gti1401. study gti1401 is being conducted to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (pk) of alpha-1 mp in participants with aatd in japan. in the current study, gti1401-ole, participants will be administered 60 mg/kg alpha-1 mp by weekly iv infusion for approximately 1 year (can be renewed annually with the consent of the participants unless the sponsor informs of discontinuation of this ole trial) to assess the long-term safety of alpha-1 mp in participants with aatd. this study will be conducted at up to 5 centers in japan. at the week 9 visit of study gti1401, after giving consent, on the same day, participants will be assessed for eligibility at screening/extension (ext) week 1 visit for this extension study, study gti1401-ole. if eligible, participants will be administered weekly iv infusions of 60 mg/kg alpha-1 mp for approximately 1 year or longer. the week 9 visit of gti1401 will be the end of study visit for the participants who are enrolled in study gti1401-ole. participants in study gti1401-ole will have the option to remain in study gti1401-ole and continue to receive weekly iv infusions of 60 mg/kg alpha-1 mp for another year or longer. if participants plan to conclude their participation in the study (gti1401-ole) early (before ext. week 52), participants will be asked to complete the end of study follow-up assessments, which will be scheduled 4 weeks after the last infusion.
