Detailed Description

Participants will be enrolled to receive multiple subcutaneous injections of Fazirsiran Injection (also referred to as TAK-999 Injection or ARO-AAT Injection) or placebo. Eligible participants will require a pre-dose biopsy completed as part of the study within the screening window. However, any participant with a biopsy result within 1 year of screening showing no fibrosis does not require a pre-dose biopsy. Only participants who have liver fibrosis will undergo a post-dose biopsy and may continue treatment in an open-label phase.
