A Phase 3, Open-Label Extension Study to Evaluate the Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Fazirsiran in Participants With Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency-Associated Liver Disease

Alpha-1 Liver Disease recruiting ID: NCT05899673

The main aim of this study is to learn if fazirsiran is safe during long-term use in people with liver disease caused by the abnormal Z-alpha-1 antitrypsin (Z-AAT) protein. People who are currently taking part in or have completed previous fazirsiran studies (AROAAT2001 [NCT03945292] or AROAAT2002 [NCT03946449]) can continue to receive fazirsiran in this study. Participants will receive fazirsiran every 3 months for almost 2 years and will then be followed for an additional 6 months. The study may also provide information on whether fazirsiran has a long-term effect in reducing liver fibrosis or slowing down the progression of liver fibrosis in people with liver disease due to the abnormal Z-AAT protein.

Inclusion Criteria

  • The participant enrolling in this open-label extension (OLE) study will have participated in a previously qualifying study, and will be considered for eligibility based on the study-specific criteria found on clincialtrials.gov

A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Fazirsiran in the Treatment of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency-Associated Liver Disease With METAVIR Stage F2 to F4 Fibrosis

Alpha-1 Liver Disease recruiting ID: NCT05677971

The main aim of this study is to learn if fazirsiran reduces liver scarring (fibrosis) compared to placebo. Other aims are to learn if fazirsiran slows down the disease worsening in the liver, to get information on how fazirsiran affects the body (called pharmacodynamics), to learn if fazirsiran reduces other liver injury (inflammation) and the abnormal Z-AAT protein in the liver, to get information on how the body processes fazirsiran (called pharmacokinetics), to test how well fazirsiran works compared with a placebo in improving measures of liver scarring including imaging and liver biomarkers (substances in the blood that the body normally makes and help show if liver function is improving, staying the same, or getting worse) as well as to check for side effects in participants treated with fazirsiran compared with those who received placebo.

Participants will either receive fazirsiran or placebo. Liver biopsies, a way of collecting a small tissue sample from the liver, will be taken twice during this study.

Inclusion Criteria

  • The participant must have a diagnosis of the Z allele homozygotes (PiZZ) genotype AATD. PiZZ diagnosis from source verifiable medical records is permitted. Otherwise, participants must undergo PiZZ confirmatory testing (genotyping for PiS and PiZ alleles) at screening. PiMZ or PiSZ genotypes are not permitted
  • The participant's liver biopsy core sample collected should meet the requirements of the protocol
  • The participant has evidence of METAVIR stage F2, F3, or F4 liver fibrosis, evaluated by a centrally read baseline liver biopsy during the screening period; or confirmed as meeting all the entry criteria by central reading of a previous biopsy conducted within 6 months before the estimated enrollment date using an adequate liver biopsy and slides as defined in the study laboratory manual
  • It must be confirmed that the participant does not have HCC. Participants will be screened for HCC with alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and abdominal ultrasound. If the participant has any of the following, they will be required to have contrast-enhanced CT or MRI imaging to exclude HCC before randomization
  • n adult participant must have a body mass index (BMI) between 18.0 and 39.0 kilograms per meter square (kg^m2), inclusive
  • The participant is a nonsmoker for at least 12 months before screening

Alpha-1 Liver Disease planned ID: NCT06165341

In some people, the liver makes an abnormal version of the alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) protein, called Z-AAT. Making an abnormal version of the AAT protein can result in liver disease as Z-AAT builds up in liver cells, which leads to liver problems such as liver scarring (fibrosis), continuing liver damage (cirrhosis), and eventually endstage liver disease. Fazirsiran is a medicine that reduces the creation of the Z-AAT protein and thus the build-up of this abnormal protein in the liver. People with this type of liver disease who already have mild liver scarring will take part in the study. They will be treated with fazirsiran or a placebo for about 2 years. This study will check the long-term safety of fazirsiran and if participants tolerate the treatment. A liver biopsy, a way of collecting a small tissue sample from the liver, will be taken twice during the study.
