Phase 1 Study Assessing the Safety and Tolerability of CTX-4430 in Cystic Fibrosis Patients

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2014-11-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of CTX-4430 when administered to cystic fibrosis (CF) patients once-daily (QD) for 15 days.This study will include two dose levels. For each dose level, blood samples will be collected for exploratory PK and PD assay validation. In addition, sputum will be collected for exploratory biomarker analysis. Following multiple dose administration, pulmonary function and exploratory lung clearance index (LCI) measurements will be taken.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Adult male or female, 18 to 55 years of age (inclusive) at the time of screening.

2. Confirmed diagnosis of CF based on the following: positive sweat chloride or sodium value ≥ 60 mEq/L, and/or genotype with two identifiable mutations consistent with CF, accompanied by one or more clinical features consistent with the CF phenotype or a diagnosis of CF made by a specialist in this condition.

3. In the judgment of the Principal Investigator (PI), the patient is medically stable with no change in symptoms, medication, or with clinical laboratory results that in PI opinion are compatible with the diagnosis of either CF or a complication thereof and are judged acceptable for inclusion.

4. Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 17.0 (kg/m2).

5. Non-tobacco/nicotine-containing product user for a minimum of 6 months prior to the first study drug administration.

6. Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1) of >50% and <90% of predicted at screening.

7. Must agree to use adequate method of contraception.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patient has displayed any significant clinical/laboratory/radiological/spirometric sign of unstable or unexpectedly deteriorating respiratory disease within 30 days prior to the first study drug administration.

2. History or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, immunologic, dermatologic, neurological, or psychiatric disease that depart from the patient's usual baseline level of health as a patient with CF.

3. Has a history of lung transplantation.

4. History or presence of alcoholism or drug abuse within 2 years prior to the first study drug administration.

5. Personal or family history of prolonged QT syndrome; or a QTc interval >430 msec (males) or >450 msec (females) using Bazett's formula (QTcB) or deemed clinically significant by the PI.

6. Sitting blood pressure is less than 90/40 mmHg or greater than 140/90 mmHg, unless deemed clinically insignificant by the PI.

7. Pulse is higher than 100 b.p.m or lower than 50 b.p.m. unless deemed clinically insignificant by the PI.

8. Failure to satisfy the PI of fitness to participate for any other reason.

9. In the judgment of the PI, clinically significant hemoptysis (>30 cc per episode) within the last 180 days.
