Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (A1ATD) Liver Disease: Overview
Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (A1ATD) Liver Disease is a common genetic cause of liver disease, with the most severe mutation found in 1:3500 live births. A1AT is a large, 52‐kDa serum glycoprotein abundantly produced by the liver. The deficiency is caused by mutation in the A1AT protein encoding gene SERPINA1 and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Mutations in SERPINA1 leads to the formation of harmful aggregates of mutant A1AT protein in the ER of hepatocytes leading to inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in adults. Risk factors for progression of A1ATD liver disease included male sex, age older than 50 years, viral hepatitis, and diabetes.
The symptoms of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (A1ATD) Liver Disease depends on the condition and the age at which they appear vary among individuals. The earliest symptoms are shortness of breath following mild activity, reduced ability to exercise, and wheezing, unintentional weight loss, recurring respiratory infections, fatigue, and rapid heartbeat upon standing. Affected individuals often develop emphysema, which is a lung disease caused by damage to the small air sacs in the lungs (alveoli). Symptoms of A1ATD include jaundice, dark urine, itchy skin and bleeding. The liver is gradually scarred and liver function can decline over time. About 10 percent of infants with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency develop liver disease, which often causes yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes (jaundice). In rare cases, people with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency develop a skin condition called panniculitis, which is characterized by hardened skin with painful lumps or patches.
Diagnosis of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (A1ATD) Liver Disease is underreported and underdiagnosed, often with a diagnostic delay of 5 to 10 years.
The diagnosis of A1ATD may require biopsies, blood tests, CAT scans and ultrasound. Following diagnosis, patients found to have A1ATD are largely managed supportively with close monitoring for progression of liver disease like fibrosis or HCC. Phenotyping by isoelectric focusing is the gold standard of diagnosis. Anti-human A1AT antibody can also confirm the presence of ATZ globules. Electron microscopy studies can identify multiple globular inclusions within dilated, congested rough ER cisterns, adjacent to secondary lysosomes.
Treatment options for the A1ATD lung disease are based on the severity of the liver affected and the stage of diagnosis. The treatment regimen may include Chaperones Autophagy-Enhancing agents, Bile acids as small molecule therapy, agents inhibiting ATZ polymerization, Gene therapy and editing, and Cell therapy. Sometimes a liver transplant may be needed if significant liver damage has been caused. It is important to avoid all contact with smoking because lung disease (emphysema) develops over the second decade of life.
This segment of the Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (A1ATD) Liver Disease report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase III, II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.
DCR-A1AT is a ribonucleic acid interference (RNAi) therapeutic, investigated for the treatment of liver disease in patients with alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) deficiency. DCR-A1AT utilizes Dicerna’s GalXCTM technology, which enables subcutaneous delivery and optimizes the activity of the RNAi pathway so that it operates in the most specific and potent fashion.
APB-101 is a “liver-sparing” gene therapy designed as a one-time treatment for Alpha-1 patients. APB-101, targets the liver via an AAV delivered Dual Function Vector (df-AAV) whereby the Z-AAT protein is silenced and M-AAT protein is augmented. In pre-clinical studies the molecule has demonstrated the ability to reduce levels of the mutant Alpha-1 protein (Z-AAT) and at the same time program liver cells to produce the correct Alpha-1 protein (M-AAT).
