Trial Outcomes & Findings for Phase II, Safety and Efficacy Study of Kamada-alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT) for Inhalation" (NCT NCT02001688)

NCT ID: NCT02001688

Last Updated: 2020-01-18

Results Overview

Patients underwent bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) prior to initiation of drug and then again after 3 months. Concentration of AAT in the BAL was measured by an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) specific for the normal form of AAT (piM). Urea was also measured in order to determine the dilution factor of the BAL fluid and calculate the concentration of AAT in the ELF.

Participant Flow

There were 2 clinical sites. At each site, 18 subjects were recruited and randomized 2:1 to receive either "Kamada-AAT for Inhalation" 80 mg/day (site 1) or 160 mg/day (site 2) or placebo. This gave a total of 12 patients randomized to receive 80 mg/day active drug, 12 patients randomized to receive 160 mg/day active drug, and 12 patients placebo

There were no pre-assignment changes

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks from initiation of study drug

Population: Intention to treat (ITT) population with values available in BAL at baseline and 12 weeks

Patients underwent bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) prior to initiation of drug and then again after 3 months. Concentration of AAT in the BAL was measured by an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) specific for the normal form of AAT (piM). Urea was also measured in order to determine the dilution factor of the BAL fluid and calculate the concentration of AAT in the ELF.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks from initiation of study drug

ITT population with baseline and 12 week values. Patients underwent bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) prior to initiation of drug and then again after 3 months. Concentration of AAT in the BAL was measured by an antineutrophil elastase capacity (ANEC) assay. Urea was also measured in order to determine the dilution factor of the BAL fluid and calculate the concentration of AAT in the ELF.
