Brief Summary

MKC-NI-001 is a Phase 1, first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of nintedanib inhalation powder (MNKD-201) in healthy adult volunteers. The trial consists of a Single Ascending Dose (SAD), followed by a Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) with a primary objective to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of MNKD-201 compared to placebo in healthy adult participants.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Is ≥40 and ≤65 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form.
  • Has a negative urine test for selected drugs of abuse and negative alcohol test at screening and upon admission to the CRU on Day -1. Note: Participants should not consume poppy seeds within 24 hours before urine drug screening because this can falsify the results of the opiate urine drug test.
  • Is willing to adhere to the restrictions and requirements specified in the protocol.
  • Has a negative severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) test (i.e., the virus that causes COVID-19) on Day -1.
  • Is capable of performing spirometry, as required by the study procedures.

Key

Exclusion Criteria
  • Has a history of significant lung disease (e.g., pulmonary fibrosis, cystic fibrosis, COPD, emphysema, chronic pulmonary infection, recent upper or lower respiratory tract infection in the prior 8 weeks, history of lung surgery or procedure, etc.)
  • Has endocrine, thyroid, or respiratory disease, diabetes mellitus, coronary heart disease, GI disease, or history of any psychotic mental illness.
  • Has a history of hepatic disease or has abnormal liver function tests (i.e., aspartate aminotransferase [AST] > 1.5 × upper limit of normal [ULN] or alanine aminotransferase [ALT] > 1.5 × ULN) at screening.
  • Has renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2), as calculated by Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI), at screening.
  • Has any history of pulmonary malignancy.
  • Has a history of substance abuse or dependency or history of recreational drug use over the last 2 years (by self-declaration).

GroupInterventionDescription
PlaceboPlaceboAdministered as a single dose or BID using the same number of cartridges as MKND-201 participants in the same cohort
(Part B) MKND-201 MAD(Part B) MKND-201Part B involves a Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) study with two cohorts. In each cohort, participants will receive MKND-201 or placebo twice daily (BID) at either the Target Dose or High Dose. Allocation is randomized 3:1 (MKND-201:placebo) and double-blind. Participants will use a breath-powered inhaler, which aerosolizes the powder for lung delivery
(Part A) MKND-201 SAD(Part A) MKND-201Part A involves a Single Ascending Dose (SAD) study with three cohorts. In each cohort, participants will receive a single dose of MKND-201 or placebo for one day. The doses will be categorized as Target Dose, High Dose, and Very High Dose. Allocation is randomized and double-blind, maintaining a ratio of 3:1 (MKND-201:placebo). Participants will use a breath-powered inhaler, which aerosolizes the powder for lung delivery
