About this trial

This study will evaluate safety and tolerability of ascending doses of nebulized KB407 in adults with cystic fibrosis.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

The subject must have read, understood, and signed an Institutional Review Board/Ethics Committee (IRB/IEC) approved Informed Consent Form and must be able to and willing to follow study procedures and instructions

Subjects aged 18 years or older at the time of Informed Consent

A historical sweat chloride value >60 mmol/L

Two copies of a disease causing mutation in the CFTR gene

Disqualifiers

Initiation of any new chronic therapy (eg, CFTR modulator, hypertonic saline, inhaled antibiotic) or any change in chronic therapy (excluding pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy) within 28 days prior to the first dose

Hospitalization, sinopulmonary infection, CF exacerbation, or other clinically significant infection or illness 14 days prior to the first dose that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may confound study results

Treatment for Mycobacterium abscessus within 3 months prior to the first dose or more than two pulmonary exacerbations with a history of Burkholderia cenocepacia infection within 6 months prior to the first dose

Participation in another clinical study or treatment with an investigational agent 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to the first dose

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

To evaluate safety and tolerability of KB407 based upon assessment of adverse events (frequency, severity, relatedness), and changes from baseline in physical examinations, vital signs, ECG, and clinical laboratory test results

Number of adult subjects with treatment related adverse events as assessed by NCI-CTCAE v5

Time frame
6 months

Secondary outcomes

1

To evaluate the effects of KB407 on pulmonary function, as measured by change from baseline in absolute and percent predicted FEV1

Assessment of forced expiratory volume, in one second (FEV1,) will be assessed by spirometry as compared to baseline

Time frame
6 months
