About this study

Official title: Phase I Safety Investigation of an Aerosolized, Recombinant Alpha 1-Antitrypsin in Subjects With Alpha 1-Antitrypsin Deficiency

The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to evaluate the short-term safety of inhaled recombinant alpha 1-antitrypsin (rAAT) in subjects with alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency. The subjects are randomized to receive placebo or one of 4 doses of rAAT. The 4 doses are tested in a consecutive manner from lowest to highest.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of participants who develop antibodies to Recombinant Alpha 1-Antitrypsin (rAAT)

    Measured: 6 weeks after the first inhalation of study drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Aerosolized, Recombinant Alpha 1-Antitrypsin in people with Alpha1-antitrypsin Deficiency, run by Baxalta now part of Shire at 4 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 16 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants who develop antibodies to Recombinant Alpha 1-Antitrypsin (rAAT) (time frame: 6 weeks after the first inhalation of study drug). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 May 2021.
