Brief Summary

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Itraconazole Administered as a Dry Powder for Inhalation (PUR1900) in Adult Asthmatic Patients With Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo controlled, multiple-arm study.

Following screening and confirmation of eligibility, subjects will be randomly assigned (1:1:1:1) into 4 arms of 16 subjects each and will receive 10 mg, 20 mg, or 35 mg of PUR1900 or placebo, administered via dry powder inhalation daily for 28 days. The doses of PUR1900 are stated in this protocol as the respective nominal doses of itraconazole.

Subject eligibility for the study will be determined within 28 days before the first dose of study drug (Day 1) and will be confirmed between 9 and 6 days before dosing and again on Day 1.

Eligible subjects will begin daily dosing with study drug (PUR1900 or placebo) on Day 1.

Subjects will return to the study site for visits on Days 2, 7, 14, and 28 and will be dosed at the study site. The remaining daily doses of study drug will be self-administered at home.

A follow-up visit will occur 7 to 10 days after the last dose of study drug.

  • Has a serum immunoglobulin (Ig) E ≥1000 IU/mL during screening (Visit 1 or Visit 2).
  • Can perform a valid, reproducible spirometry test with demonstration of a prebronchodilator FEV1 ≥50% of predicted normal for age, sex, race, and height (Quanjer et al 2012) at a screening visit.
  • Has a documented stable asthma medication regimen during screening (Day 28 to Day 1), including SABA, LABA, and LTRA use and inhaled and/or oral GCS.

  • Can demonstrate the correct inhalation technique for the use of the delivery device at screening and before dosing.
Exclusion Criteria
  • Is a female of childbearing potential who is pregnant or lactating or who plans to become pregnant during the study. A woman is considered to be of childbearing potential unless she is either permanently sterile (hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral tubal occlusion/ligation) or postmenopausal (had no menses for 12 months without an alternative medical cause).
  • Has a history of life-threatening asthma within the last 5 years, defined as an asthma episode that required intubation and/or was associated with hypercapnia, respiratory arrest, and/or hypoxic seizures.
  • Had an occurrence of asthma or ABPA exacerbations within the 28 days before screening or during the 28-day period before Day 1.
  • Had an occurrence of clinically significant bacterial, viral, or fungal infection that required systemic (oral or intravenous) antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals within the 28 days before screening. Topical treatments, other than antifungals, are allowed.
  • Received any investigational medical product in a clinical research study within the previous 3 months before dosing in this study.
  • Has previously received PUR1900.
  • Has a history of any significant drug or alcohol abuse in the past 2 years before screening, as judged by the investigator.
  • Has current tobacco or inhaled marijuana use or history of smoking tobacco or marijuana within the last 6 months before screening.
  • Is a current user of e-cigarettes or has used these products within the last 6 months before screening.
  • Has a positive urine test result for drugs of abuse, alcohol, or cotinine at screening
