Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- 18 to 75 years, inclusive, at the time of consent.

- Documented diagnosis of PiZZ-type alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, confirmed by
genotyping. Historical genotyping data may be used, if available.

- AATD-associated liver disease documented by liver biopsy at Screening.

- Consent to undergo paired liver biopsies.

- Lung, renal and liver function within acceptable limits

- Capable of giving signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the
requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

- History of chronic liver disease other than non-alcoholic fatty liver disease from
any cause other than PiZZ-type alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency.

- Child-Pugh Score B or C.

- History of one single severe exacerbation of underlying lung disease in the year
prior to randomization.

- History of clinically significant respiratory infections (including pneumonia and
lower respiratory tract infections), as determined by the Investigator, in the 3
months prior to screening

- Use of an RNAi drug at any time.
