Overview

Brief Summary

Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) suffer from chronic infections of the lower respiratory tract that can be caused by one or multiple bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which has been particularly problematic to eradicate and been implicated as the major cause of morbidity and mortality in CF patients. Aerosol delivery of antibiotics directly to the lung increases the local concentrations of antibiotic at the site of infection resulting in improved antimicrobial effects compared to systemic administration. Bacterial resistance to current aerosol antibiotic treatments indicate a need for improved therapies to treat CF patients with pulmonary infections caused by multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other bacteria. High concentrations of MP-376 delivered directly to the lung are projected to have antimicrobial effects on even the most resistant organisms.

Detailed Description

This trial will be a double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of levofloxacin administered as MP-376 of three dosage regimens given for 28 days by the aerosol route to CF patients. Study with completed results acquired from Horizon in 2024.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change in P. Aeruginosa Density

Time Frame: from baseline to end of treatment (28 days)

Patients were required to cough deeply and then spit sputum into a sterile container. The bacteria contained in the sputum sample was incubated in a laboratory and the number of P. aeruginosa colony forming units per gram of sputum (CFU/g) was determined. The difference in CFUs/g were then compared from baseline to the conclusion of the 28 day treatment period

Secondary Outcomes

  • Percent Change in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1)(from baseline to end of the 28-day treatment period (28 days))
  • Time to Administration of Other Anti-pseudomonal Antimicrobials(from baseline until final study visit (up to 56 days))
  • Change in FEV1 Percent Predicted(from baseline to the end of the treatment 28-day treatment period (28 days))
  • Changes in Respiratory Domain Scores of Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire - Revised (CFQ-R)(from baseline to the end of the 28-day treatment period (28 days))
  • Changes in Susceptability Patterns of Isolated Organisms(from baseline until the end of the 28-day treatment period (28 days))
