Brief Summary

A phase 2, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, phage kinetics, and efficacy of inhaled AP-PA02 administered in subjects with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis and chronic pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.

Detailed Description

This study will be conducted in two cohorts running in parallel: Cohort A will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inhaled AP-PA02 in subjects who have not received an antipseudomonal inhaled antibiotic for a minimum of 3 months prior. Cohort B will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of inhaled AP-PA02 in subjects who have received an antipseudomonal inhaled antibiotic for a minimum of 3 months prior. Subjects in both Cohorts A and B will be followed for approximately 4 weeks after last dose of study drug and evaluated for safety, tolerability, and efficacy.
