Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacoscintigraphic Comparison of TobrAir® 6.0 With TOBI® and TOBI® Podhaler™
- Registration Number
- NCT02207426
- Lead Sponsor
- Pharmaero ApS
- Brief Summary
This study compares pharmacokinetic profiles of tobramycin delivered by TobrAir® 6.0 device with TOBI® nebulizer system and the TOBI® Podhaler™ device. In addition, lung deposition of tobramycin delivered by TobrAir® 6.0 device and by TOBI® nebulizer system will be determined.
- Detailed Description
This is an open-label, randomized, single dose, cross-over study in healthy subjects. Each subject receives tobramycin with 3 different inhalation devices:
* 75 mg tobramycin delivered to the airways via TobrAir® 6.0.
* 300 mg tobramycin (TOBI®) delivered to the airways via the PARI LC® PLUS/PARI TurboBoy® SX.
* 112 mg tobramycin (4x28mg dry powder capsules) delivered to the airways via the TOBI® Podhaler™.
Each dose is separated by a minimum washout of at least 68 h.
Blood samples for PK analysis of tobramycin will be collected at regular time intervals until 24 h post-dose. For TobrAir 6.0 and TOBI/PARI only, all dosed subjects will undergo scintigraphic assessments.
