Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) Emphysema
Current approved medicines that treat AATD which contain AAT (called as Alpha-1 Proteinase Inhibitor, A1PI) replaces the AAT protein when the body does not produce it enough. They are injected slowly (infused) into the patient’s vein approximately every week.
INBRX 101 is an artificial form of AAT that has been changed to last longer in the body. This means that INBRX-101 could be given less frequently than the currently approved Alpha-1 Proteinase Inhibitor (A1PI) augmentation therapies because it works for longer in the body.
