GLASSIA Safety, Immunogenicity, and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Study (NCT02525861) | Clinical Trial Compass
CompletedPhase 3
GLASSIA Safety, Immunogenicity, and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Study
United States, Canada34 participantsStarted 2016-03-08
Plain-language summary
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.

Inclusion criteria
. Male or female participants meeting the following age criteria:
. For participants who will undergo bronchoscopy/ bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) procedures: 18 to 75 years of age at the time of screening.
. For participants who will be waived from undergoing bronchoscopy/BAL procedures: 18 years of age or older at the time of screening.
. Documented Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor (A1PI) genotype of Pi\*Z/Z, Pi\*Z/Null, Pi\*Malton/Z, Pi\*Null/Null, or other "at-risk" allelic combinations such as SZ (excluding MS and MZ without the presence of another allowable at-risk genotype) and an endogenous A1PI plasma levels of less than or equal to (\< or =)11 micrometer (μM) (\< or = 0.572 milligrams per milliliter \[mg/mL\]).
. 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.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

Change From Baseline in Antigenic Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor (A1PI) Levels in Epithelial Lining Fluid (ELF)
. 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.
. 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.
. 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.
Exclusion criteria
. 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).
. The participant is experiencing or has a history of chronic severe cor pulmonale (resting mean pulmonary artery pressure \> or =40 millimeters) of mercury \[mm Hg\]).
. The participant routinely produces more than 1 tablespoon of sputum per day.
. The participant has a history of frequent pulmonary exacerbations (greater than 2 moderate or severe exacerbations within 52 weeks prior to screening.
. The participant is experiencing a pulmonary exacerbation at the time of screening (participant may be rescreened 4 weeks after the clinical resolution of an exacerbation).
. The participant has clinically significant abnormalities (other than emphysema, chronic bronchitis, or mild bronchiectasis) detected on chest X-ray or CT scan at the time of screening (past records obtained within 52 weeks prior to screening may be used, if available).
. The participant has clinically significant abnormalities detected on a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) performed at the time of screening (past records obtained within 26 weeks prior to screening may be used, if available).
. The participant has clinically significant congestive heart failure with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III/IV symptoms.
Timeframe: Baseline up to Week 14
