Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the the safety and efficacy of the investigational product, fazirsiran (TAK-999, ARO-AAT), administered subcutaneously to patients with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Alpha 1-Antitrypsin Deficiency Drug: Fazirsiran Injection (TAK-999, ARO-AAT) Phase 2

Detailed Description:
Participants will be enrolled to receive multiple subcutaneous injections of fazirsiran (TAK-999, ARO-AAT). All eligible participants will require a pre-dose biopsy completed as part of the study within the screening window. All participants will undergo an End of Study (EOS) biopsy. Treated participants will be offered the opportunity to continue treatment in an open label extension during which they will undergo a final biopsy.

Outcome Measures

Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change From Baseline Over Time in Total, Soluble, and Insoluble Z-Alpha 1 Antitrypsin (Z-AAT) Liver Concentrations [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24 (Cohort 1 &1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Extension Week 44 ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change From Baseline Over Time in Circulating Levels of Z-AAT [ Time Frame: Baseline through Week 24 (Cohort 1 & 1b) or through Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Baseline through Extension Weeks 44 and 140 ]
  2. Change From Baseline Over Time in Alanine Transaminase (ALT) [ Time Frame: Baseline through Week 24 (Cohort 1 & 1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Baseline through Extension Weeks 44 and 140 ]
  3. Change From Baseline Over Time in Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT) [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24 (Cohort 1 & 1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Baseline and Extension Weeks 44 and 140 ]
  4. Change From Baseline Over Time in Fibrosis-4 Index (FIB4) [ Time Frame: Baseline through Week 24 (Cohort 1 & 1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Baseline through Extension Weeks 44 and 140 ]
  5. Change From Baseline Over Time in Aspartate Transaminase (AST) to Platelet Ratio Index (APRI) [ Time Frame: Baseline through Week 24 (Cohort 1 & 1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Baseline through Extension Weeks 44 and 140 ]
  6. Change From Baseline Over Time in Plasma Collagen Type 3 (PRO-C3) [ Time Frame: Baseline through Week 24 (Cohort 1 & 1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Baseline through Extension Weeks 44 and 140 ]
  7. Change From Baseline Over Time in Hepatic Stiffness based on FibroScan (when available) [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24 (Cohort 1 & 1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Extension Weeks 44 and 140 ]
  8. Change From Baseline Over Time in Histological Metrics of Liver Disease: Inflammation Score [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24 (Cohort 1 &1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Extension Week 44 ]
    Change in inflammation score, based on pathology slide reads. Inflammation was assessed on a scale of 0-3, with higher scores showing more severe inflammation.

  9. Change From Baseline Over Time in Histological Metrics of Liver Disease: Steatosis Score [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24 (Cohort 1 &1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Extension Week 44 ]
    Change in steatosis score, based on pathology slide reads. Steatosis was assessed on a scale of 0-3, with higher scores showing more severe steatosis.

  10. Change From Baseline Over Time in Histological Metrics of Liver Disease: Hepatocyte Cell Death Score [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24 (Cohort 1 &1b) or Week 48 (Cohort 2); Extension Cohort: Extension Week 44 ]
    Change in hepatocyte cell death score, based on pathology slide reads. Hepatocyte cell death was assessed on a scale of 0-2, with higher scores showing more severe hepatocyte cell death.
