Multicenter, Randomized, Parallel Group Study to Investigate the Optimal Deposition Site for Inhaled Prolastin® in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis (CF)
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Alpha1-Proteinase Inhibitor (Human) for Cystic Fibrosis. Completed, enrolled 72 participants.
Detailed Summary
The objective of this trial is to determine the optimal region of the lung for depositing Prolastin (alpha-1 antitrypsin; AAT) by inhalation in order to treat cystic fibrosis (CF). The AKITA® nebulizer has settings which can be varied to target the inhaled drug to either the deep lung or to the upper airways in a one to one randomization. The study will measure how much of the activity of the enzyme elastase is inhibited by AAT.
