Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is 2-fold: (1) to evaluate the safety and potential immunogenicity of GLASSIA following intravenous (IV) administration via in-line filtration; and (2) to assess the effects of GLASSIA augmentation therapy on the levels of A1PI and various biomarkers in the epithelial lining fluid (ELF) following intravenous (IV) administration at a dosage of 60 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) Body weight (BW)/week active alpha1-proteinase inhibitor (A1PI) protein for 25 weeks in participants with emphysema due to congenital A1PI deficiency.

3. Screening levels of endogenous plasma (antigenic) A1PI of \< or =11 μM may be collected at any time during the screening period for treatment-naive participants, or following a 4 week minimum wash-out from previous augmentation therapy in treatment-experienced participants.
4. Participants must have at least one of the following: clinical diagnosis of emphysema, evidence of emphysema on computerized tomography (CT) scan of the chest, and/or evidence of airway obstruction which is not completely reversed with bronchodilator treatment at the time of screening.
5. If the participant is being treated with any respiratory medications including inhaled bronchodilators, inhaled anticholinergics, inhaled corticosteroids, or low-dose systemic corticosteroids (prednisone \< or =10 milligram per day (mg/day) or its equivalent), the doses of the participant's medications have remained unchanged for at least 14 days prior to screening.
6. The participant is a nonsmoker or has ceased smoking for a minimum of 13 weeks prior to screening (serum cotinine level at screening within normal range of a nonsmoker) and agrees to refrain from smoking throughout the course of the study. Participants with a positive cotinine test due to nicotine replacement therapy (example \[eg\], patches, chewing gum), vapor cigarettes, or snuff are eligible.
7. If female of childbearing potential, the participant presents with a negative pregnancy test at screening and agrees to employ adequate birth control measures for the duration of the study.
8. The participant is willing and able to comply with the requirements of the protocol.
9. The participant must have pulmonary function at the time of screening meeting both of the following:

1. Post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) greater than or equal to (\> or =) 50 percentage (%) of predicted.
2. If FEV1 is \>80% predicted, then FEV1/forced vital capacity (FVC) must be \<0.7. \*Note: Inclusion criterion #1a, #9a and #9b are not applicable to participants who are not required to undergo the bronchoscopy/BAL procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

1. The participant is experiencing or has a history of clinically significant pulmonary disease (other than chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, chronic bronchitis, mild bronchiectasis, and stable asthma).

23. The participant is receiving or requires long-term (\>4 weeks) immunosuppressive therapy, such as systemic corticosteroids at doses greater than 10 mg/day of prednisone (or its equivalent), mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab.
