Extension Study of Zemaira® i.v. Administration in Subjects With Emphysema Due to alpha1-proteinase Inhibitor Deficiency.

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Alpha 1-proteinase Inhibitor Deficiency
Emphysema
Interventions
Biological: Alpha1- proteinase inhibitor [human]
Registration Number
NCT00670007
Lead Sponsor
CSL Behring
Brief Summary

This study is a continuation of the placebo-controlled study CE1226_4001 (NCT00261833) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Zemaira® intravenous (i.v). administration in subjects with emphysema due to alpha1-proteinase inhibitor deficiency. The long-term verification of a disease-modifying benefit of Zemaira® on the progression of emphysema will be assessed by volume-adjusted lung density, measured yearly by computed tomography (CT).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of Change of Adjusted Lung DensityUp to 2 years

As measured by centralized, standardized computer tomographic (CT) lung densitometry. CT scans were acquired at 2 inspiration states: TLC (Total Lung Capacity; ie, full inspiration) and FRC (Functional Residual Capacity; ie, full expiration). Results were adjusted for total lung volume and are presented as point estimates for the average rate of decline in the early start and delayed start subgroups from a linear random regression model with country, inspiration state (only for 'TLC and FRC state'), time (time elapsed since Day 1 \[CE1226_4001\]), treatment and treatment by time interaction as fixed effects and subject and subject by time interaction as random coefficients.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time to First Pulmonary ExacerbationUp to 2 years
Percent Change in Adjusted Lung DensityFrom baseline to 2 years

Percent change from baseline to 2 years as measured by centralized, standardized CT lung densitometry. CT scans were acquired at 2 inspiration states: TLC (ie, full inspiration) and FRC (ie, full expiration). Results were adjusted for total lung volume and are presented as point estimates for the average percent change in the early start and delayed start subgroups from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with country, treatment, and baseline lung density as fixed effects and inspiration state as a repeated random effect. The baseline is the last assessment from the preceding study CE1226_4001.

Change in Subject-reported SymptomsFrom baseline to 2 years

Patient-reported symptoms were measured using the St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ). SGRQ total, symptoms, activity and impact scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more limitations, and change from baseline below zero (0) is favorable, indicating improvement.

Absolute Change in Adjusted Lung DensityFrom baseline to 2 years

Absolute change from baseline to 2 years as measured by centralized, standardized CT lung densitometry. CT scans were acquired at 2 inspiration states: TLC (ie, full inspiration) and FRC (ie, full expiration). Results were adjusted for total lung volume and are presented as point estimates for the average absolute change in the early start and delayed start subgroups from an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with country, treatment, and baseline lung density as fixed effects and inspiration state as a repeated random effect. The baseline is the last assessment from the preceding study CE1226_4001.

Percent Change in Lung Function as Measured by Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1)From baseline up to 2 years
Number of Subjects With Pulmonary ExacerbationsUp to 2 years
Percentage of Subjects With Treatment Emergent Adverse EventsFrom baseline up to 2.5 years

Percentage of subjects with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs): overall, by severity, by relatedness, by seriousness, and which occurred within 24 hours of Zemaira administration.

Percent Change in Lung Function as Measured by Ratio of FEV1/FVC (Forced Vital Capacity)From baseline up to 2 years
Percent Change in Lung Function as Measured by Percent Predicted FEV1From baseline up to 2 years
Annual Rate in Subject Years of Pulmonary ExacerbationsUp to 2 years

Annual exposure-adjusted incidence rate of pulmonary exacerbations.
