About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Open Labeled, Multi-Center, Evaluation of the Efficacy Safety and Tolerability of Nitric Oxide Given Intermittently Via Inhalation to Subjects With NTM (Specifically MABSC)

A Prospective, Open labeled, multi-Center, Evaluation of the Efficacy Safety and Tolerability of Nitric Oxide Given Intermittently via Inhalation to Subjects with NTM (specifically MABSC)

Nitric Oxide (NO) has been shown to play a critical role in various biological functions. In the airways, NO is considered to play a key role in the innate immune system in which the first-line of host defense against microbes is built.

In vitro studies suggested that NO, in part per million (ppm) concentrations, possesses anti-microbial activity against a wide variety of phyla including fungi, and antibiotic-resistance bacteria.

In this study the investigators wish to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of 160 ppm Nitric Oxide intermittently delivered via inhalation to subjects infected with Non-tuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM), specifically with MABSC.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety measured by NO-related Serious Adverse Events

    Measured: 21 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Six minute walk test

  2. Mycobacterium Abscesuss load in sputum

    Measured: 81 days

  3. NO-related AE's such as elevation of methemoglobin and elevation of NO2 during treatment

    Measured: 21 days

  4. Type and frequency of occurrence of NO-related Adverse Events (AE's) and Serious AE's (SAE's)

    Measured: 51 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Nitric Oxide in people with Mycobacterium Abscessus Infection, run by Beyond Air Inc. at 1 site in Israel.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety measured by NO-related Serious Adverse Events (time frame: 21 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jul 2019.
