简要总结
The purpose of this study was to assess the comparative safety and effectiveness of aztreonam for inhalation solution versus tobramycin inhalation solution in adult and pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection.
详细描述
Number of Subjects Planned: Approximately 240 randomized patients
Target Population: CF patients >= 6 years of age with stable pulmonary disease, who at study entry had a recent positive sputum culture for PA and had been previously treated with aerosolized antibiotics without demonstration of drug intolerance.
The randomized phase of this study, used for hypotheses testing, enrolled participants from both the United States (US) and EU. An open-label, single-arm extension was available for participants in the EU who completed at least one course of AZLI or TIS during the randomized portion of the study. These participants were eligible to receive 3 additional cycles of AZLI in a 28-day, intermittent, repeating treatment regimen. Results of the extension phase will be available the first quarter (Q1) of 2012.
Randomized Phase Study Design (US and EU): This was an open-label, multicenter, randomized, parallel group study. The study design consisted of 2 treatment arms of 28-day, intermittent, repeating treatment regimens: aztreonam for inhalation solution (AZLI) or tobramycin inhalation solution (TIS). The total study period was 26 weeks. The study schedule included 9 visits - Screening, Baseline, Day 14, Day 28, followed by visits every 28 days through the end of the study.

- •FEV1 <= 75% predicted at Visit 1
- •Ability to perform reproducible pulmonary function tests
- •Chest radiograph at Visit 1 without significant acute findings (eg, infiltrates [lobar or diffuse interstitial], pleural effusion, pneumothorax); or chest radiograph or magnetic resonance image (MRI) obtained within the 180 days prior to Visit 1 without acute findings and no significant intercurrent illness; chronic, stable findings (eg, chronic scarring or atelectasis) are allowed
排除标准

- •Known local or systemic hypersensitivity to monobactam antibiotics
- •Known allergies/intolerance to tobramycin
- •Inability to tolerate inhalation of a short acting beta agonist

结局指标
主要结局
Relative Change From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Percent Predicted at Day 28
时间窗: Baseline and end of treatment Course 1 (Day 28)
Spirometry was performed according to American Thoracic Society (ATS) guidelines at each visit. FEV1 percent predicted is a normalized value of FEV1 calculated using the Knudson equation and based upon participant age, gender, and height. Treatment effect on the relative change from baseline in FEV1 percent predicted at Day 28 (Visit 4) was tested using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model-based method.
Mean Actual Change From Baseline in FEV1 Percent Predicted Across 3 Treatment Courses
时间窗: Baseline, and end of treatment Courses 1 (Week 4), 2 (Week 12), and 3 (Week 20)
Spirometry was performed according to ATS guidelines at each visit. FEV1 percent predicted is a normalized value of FEV1 calculated using the Knudson equation and based upon participant age, gender, and height. Treatment effect on the average adjusted means for the actual change in FEV1 percent predicted at Visits 4, 6, and 8 (Weeks 4, 12, and 20) was tested by mixed-effect model repeated measures (MMRM) analysis using the ITT population analysis set.
次要结局
