NCT07555483 · Grifols Therapeutics LLC

A Non-inferiority Pharmacokinetic and Safety/Tolerability Study of Two Different Doses of Weekly SC Alpha1-PI 15% Compared With Corresponding Standard IV Alpha1-PI in Participants With Alpha1-Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD)

(SWIFT-SC)

What this study is about

This study is designed to compare two different weekly doses of a medicine called Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor given by injection under the skin with the standard doses of the same medicine given through a vein. Adults with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency will take part.

View original scientific description

This study is designed to compare two different weekly doses of a medicine called Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor given by injection under the skin with the standard doses of the same medicine given through a vein. Adults with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency will take part. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups, and both the study doctors and participants will know which treatment is being given. The main goals of the study are to understand how the body processes the medicine (pharmacokinetics) and to assess how safe and well tolerated the different weekly doses are.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Have a diagnosis of congenital AATD with an allelic combination of ZZ, SZ, Z(null), (null)(null), S(null), or "at-risk" alleles (patients with "at-risk" alleles must be individually evaluated for eligibility by the Medical Monitor). If the genotype has yet to be documented, a blood draw for genotyping (i.e., allelic discrimination) and phenotyping will be obtained at the Screening Visit.
  • Participants may be naïve to alpha1-PI augmentation therapy or may be currently receiving alpha1-PI augmentation therapy or received alpha1-PI augmentation therapy in the past. If the total alpha1-PI serum (alpha-1 antitrypsin \[AAT\]) level has yet to be documented as in a treatment-naïve patient, a blood draw for total alpha1-PI serum level will be obtained at the Screening Visit. For participants currently receiving alpha1-PI augmentation, a pre-alpha1-PI augmentation AAT level must be documented in the participant's medical history/records.
  • All participants must have a documented total alpha1-PI serum level \<11 μM (80mg/dL if measured by radial immunodiffusion or 50 mg/dL if measured by nephelometry) which is documented pre-alpha1-PI augmentation for participants receiving AAT augmentation.
  • At the Screening Visit, have post-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV₁) ≥25% and \<80% predicted of predicted FEV₁/Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) \<70% (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease \[GOLD\] stage II-III, and some individuals are GOLD stage IV).
  • If the participant has received alpha1-PI augmentation therapy of any kind, he/she must be willing to discontinue that treatment at the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit and remain off any kind of alpha1-PI treatment, other than the IPs of this study, while participating in the study.
  • Willing and able to provide written informed consent indicating that they understand the purpose of, and procedures required for the study and are willing to participate in it.

Exclusion criteria

  • Have had a moderate or severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation during the 4 weeks before the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit.
  • Have history of lung or liver transplant or on transplantation waiting list.
  • Have any lung surgery during the past 1 year (excluding lung biopsy).
  • At screening, have elevated liver enzymes (aspartate aminotransferase \[AST\], alanine aminotransferase \[ALT\], and alkaline phosphatase \[ALP\]) ≥ 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN).
  • Have severe concomitant disease (e.g., congestive heart failure, clinically significant pulmonary fibrosis, malignant disease \[except for skin cancers other than melanoma\], history of acute hypersensitivity pneumonitis reaction, or current chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis).
  • Females who are pregnant, breastfeeding or, if of child-bearing potential†, unwilling to practice a highly effective method of contraception (oral, injectable, or implanted hormonal methods of contraception, placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS), condom or occlusive cap with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository, male sterilization, or true abstinence\*) throughout the study. †Women of childbearing potential are defined as premenopausal and not surgically sterile, post tubal ligation, nor documented as infertile due to a concurrent medical condition. \*True abstinence: When this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. (Periodic abstinence \[e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods\], declaration of abstinence for the duration of a study, and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception.)
  • Have known previous infection with or clinical signs and symptoms consistent with current Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection.
  • Have smoked during the past 6 months (this includes electronic/vapor cigarettes) or a positive urine cotinine test at the Screening Visit that is due to smoking.
  • Received IP in another study within 30 days prior to the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit or received any recombinant human AAT-Fc fusion protein (e.g., INBRX-101) or other extended half-life AAT products within 5 half-lives of the product relative to the Screening Visit date.
  • Have history of anaphylaxis or severe systemic response to any plasma-derived alpha1- PI preparation or other blood product(s).
  • Use systemic steroids above a stable dose equivalent to 5 mg/day prednisone (i.e., 10 mg every 2 days) within the 4 weeks prior to the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit (Note: inhaled steroids are not considered systemic steroids). It is recommended to maintain the same dose throughout the study.
  • Use systemic or aerosolized antibiotics for a COPD exacerbation within the 4 weeks prior to the Week 1 (Baseline) Visit.
  • Have known selective or severe Immunoglobulin A (IgA) deficiency based on prior medical records.
  • In the opinion of the Investigator, the participant may have compliance problems or any medical condition that may place them at safety risk with the protocol and the procedures of the protocol, or because of unstable health be unable to come to the study site for in-person clinic visits required by the protocol.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
