Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency
According to the Respreeza® Summary of Product Characteristics, the initial infusions must be administered under the supervision of a health professional experienced in the treatment of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, although subsequent infusions may be administered at home by the person responsible for care or by the patient. Clinical data on self-administration of Respreeza® are however limited and the grounds for self-administration are left to the assessment of the attending physician, who needs to ensure that appropriate training is delivered. In this context, CSL Behring would like to run a clinical study in order to assess the effectiveness of a home self-administration learning program in terms of switching to self-administration, and the long term maintenance of this administration.
