Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum observed plasma drug concentration (Cmax)within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose
Time to maximum observed plasma drug concentration (tmax)within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose
Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC)within 30 min prior to CVT-301 dose administration and specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of subjects with Adverse Events (AEs) including Serious AEsup to 3 days
Change in pulmonary functionwithin 90 min prior to CVT-301 dose and at specified time points up to 24 hours post-dose

Pulmonary function will be measured by spirometry using the guideline specified by the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III)
