Cyclosporine Inhalation Solution (CIS) in Lung Transplant Recipients
A study testing Cyclosporine Inhalation Solution in people with Lung Transplant, run by APT Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 8 sites in United States.
Trial summary
Currently there are no approved therapies for lung transplant recipients in the United States (US). Treatment with CIS following lung transplantation has previously been demonstrated to result in a clinically meaningful improvement in survival and chronic rejection-free survival compared to placebo, but additional… Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: An Open-label Treatment Use Protocol of Cyclosporine Inhalation Solution (CIS) in Lung Transplant Recipients
Currently there are no approved therapies for lung transplant recipients in the United States (US). Treatment with CIS following lung transplantation has previously been demonstrated to result in a clinically meaningful improvement in survival and chronic rejection-free survival compared to placebo, but additional data supporting its use is needed prior to Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval. This treatment use protocol is a mechanism for providing eligible lung transplant recipients early access to CIS in advance of FDA approval.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Cyclosporine Inhalation SolutionDrug
Cyclosporine USP Inhalation Solution (CIS) 300mg/4.8 mL delivered via a disposable nebulizer. A titration phase of 10 days is recommended starting with 100 mg and then increasing over the 10 days to a maximum of 300 mg or the highest tolerated dose.
