Study Summary

This is a study of gene therapy to treat alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency. This study aims to treat AAT deficiency with a single administration of AAV8hAAT(AVL), a gene therapy that codes for an oxidation resistant form of the AAT protein, which if safe and if efficacious, will protect the lung on a persistent basis. We hope to learn the safety/toxicity and initial evidence of efficacy of intravenous delivery of this gene therapy to alpha 1-antitrypsin deficient individuals.

Primary Outcome

Serious adverse events will only be included if assessed as related to the gene therapy.
