- Conditions
- Migraine
- Interventions
- Drug: CVT-427 (zolmitriptan inhalation powder)
- Registration Number
- NCT02905227
- Lead Sponsor
- Acorda Therapeutics
- Brief Summary
This study is an open-label, parallel group study to evaluate acute pulmonary safety and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of two doses, separated by 2 hours, of CVT-427 zolmitriptan inhalation powder in three groups of adults: those with asthma, those who smoke and healthy volunteers.
- Detailed Description
The purpose of this study is to evaluate acute pulmonary safety and PK of CVT-427 zolmitriptan inhalation powder in the study populations.

- eligible subjects will be men or women aged 18 to 65 years inclusive;
- body mass index (BMI) 18 to 30 kg/m2;

- subjects with asthma will be excluded for more than 2 hospitalizations or emergency room visits, or more than 3 courses of systemic steroids in the past 12 months or 1 course within the past 8 weeks for respiratory illness;
- asthma exacerbation within 8 weeks of before screening;
- unscheduled or urgent visit to any medical facility for asthma-related problems within 8 weeks before screening;
- history of intubation or intensive care unit admission for asthma in the past 5 years.
- Subjects who smoke will be excluded if they have intrinsic lung disease including asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with an FEV1 of <60% of predicted and a score of ≥2 on the Medical Research Council Dsypnea Scale (MRC);
- any cardiovascular risk factor or contraindication for the use of triptans
- use of nonselective monamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOI), serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), propranolol, or cimetidine within 4 weeks prior to the Screening Visit, or planned use during the study;
- positive serology test (hepatitis B virus surface antigen [HBsAg], hepatitis C virus [HCV] antibody, human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] 1 & 2 antibodies).
