Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Steady-state AUC of alpha1-PI over the weekly dosing interval (from 0 to 7 days) (AUC0-7 days) in the IV Treatment Period 1 and in the SC Treatment Period 2 for both dose levels
Week 1 to Week 16
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Up to 668 days

AE that occurred at any time from the beginning of IP administration until the final visit of the clinical trial was considered TEAE.

Number of Participants With Suspected Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs)
Up to 668 days

All noxious and unintended responses to a medicinal product or study treatment related to any dose was considered suspected ADRs. The phrase "responses to a medicinal product" means that a causal relationship between a medicinal product or study treatment and an AE is at least a reasonable possibility.

Number of Participants With Infusion Site Reactions (ISRs)
Up to 668 days

Treatment-emergent ISRs have onset on or after date of the first administration of study treatment up to on or before 28 days after last administration of study treatment. An ISR was counted in the period during which it started.

Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Up to 668 days

An adverse event is considered serious if, in the judgment of the investigator or sponsor, it results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongs an existing hospitalization (admission for 24 hours or more, including emergency room stays), causes significant or persistent disability, results in a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or is an important medical event that may jeopardize the subject or require intervention to prevent these outcomes.

Number of Participants With Any TEAE Leading to Study Withdrawal
Up to 668 days

TEAE Leading to Study Withdrawal refers to a TEAE that results in a participant permanently discontinuing or withdrawing from a clinical study because of the adverse event.

Number of Participants With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Exacerbations
Up to 668 days

The definition of an exacerbation of COPD is an increase in respiratory symptoms (dyspnea, increased cough, and/or production of sputum) over baseline that usually requires medical intervention.

Number of Participants With Any Adverse Events Associated With Abnormalities in Vital Signs (Heart Rate, Blood Pressure, Respiratory Rate, and Temperature)
Up to 668 days

Clinically significant vital sign abnormalities were presented as adverse events, with clinical relevance based on the Investigator's judgment.

Change From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1)
Single-Dose Week 5/Intravenous Week 1, and Repeat-Dose Weeks 1, 4, and 9

FEV1 was performed according to ATS/ERS guidelines. At each visit, testing was performed both pre- and post-bronchodilator (BD) administration.

Change From Baseline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)
Single-Dose Week 5/Intravenous Week 1, and Repeat-Dose Weeks 1, 4, and 9

FVC was performed according to ATS/ERS guidelines. At each visit, testing was performed both pre- and post-bronchodilator (BD) administration.

Number of Participants With Any Adverse Events Associated With Abnormalities in Laboratory Parameters (Chemistry, Hematology, Urinalysis)
Up to 668 days

Out of the normal range laboratory results judged by the Investigator as clinically significant in the context of the participant's medical history were considered adverse events.

Immunogenicity: Number of Participants With Alpha1-PI Antibodies
Treatment Period 1- Single-Dose Week 1; Treatment Period 2- Repeat-Dose Weeks 1 and 9

Immunogenicity testing was performed using validated assays in a multi-tiered approach.

Secondary Endpoints

The average value of the steady-state trough alpha1-PI measurements obtained at Weeks 6, 7, 8, and 9 (Period 1)
Weeks 6, 7, 8 and 9

Frequently asked questions about Alpha-1 15%

What is Alpha-1 15% used for?

Alpha-1 15% is an investigational therapy being developed for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, also known as Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency. It is a small molecule product intended to address this condition, which is characterized by low levels of the SERPINA1 protein. The drug is currently in clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What does Alpha-1 15% target?

Alpha-1 15% targets SERPINA1, which is the gene that encodes alpha-1 antitrypsin, a protein that protects tissues from enzymes released by immune cells. In Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, mutations in SERPINA1 lead to reduced or dysfunctional alpha-1 antitrypsin, contributing to lung and liver damage. Alpha-1 15% is designed to address this deficiency.

Who makes Alpha-1 15%?

Alpha-1 15% is being developed by Grifols, S.A., a biopharmaceutical company. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of this investigational therapy for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.

What phase is Alpha-1 15% in?

Alpha-1 15% is in Phase 3 clinical development. A Phase 3 study is currently recruiting participants to evaluate the non-inferiority of two different doses of weekly subcutaneous Alpha1-PI 15% compared with standard intravenous Alpha1-PI in individuals with Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency. The drug remains investigational and is not yet approved.

What clinical trials is Alpha-1 15% in?

Alpha-1 15% is being studied in two clinical trials. NCT07555483 is a Phase 3, randomized, controlled, non-inferiority study with 40 participants, currently recruiting in the United States, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, and Sweden. NCT04722887 is a completed Phase 1 study that evaluated safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in 17 participants in the United States.

Is Alpha-1 15% the same as Alpha1-PI 15%?

Yes, Alpha-1 15% is also referred to as Alpha1-PI 15%, which stands for Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor Subcutaneous (Human) 15%. This name is used in clinical trial documentation to describe the same investigational product being developed by Grifols for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.
