  Purpose

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