Other Respiratory Disorders: known active tuberculosis, lung cancer, cystic fibrosis, significant bronchiectasis (high resolution computerised tomography [CT] evidence of bronchiectasis that causes repeated acute exacerbations), immune deficiency disorders, severe neurological disorders affecting control of the upper airway, sarcoidosis, idiopathic interstitial pulmonary fibrosis, primary pulmonary hypertension, or pulmonary thromboembolic disease. Note: allergic rhinitis is not exclusionary.

A moderate or severe exacerbation of COPD ending within 6 weeks prior to dosing (Day 1). The end date of an exacerbation is the last day of treatment with systemic corticosteroids or antibiotics.

Prior pulmonary resection or Lung Volume Reduction Surgery [i.e., lobectomy, bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (endobronchial blockers, airway bypass, endobronchial valves, thermal vapor ablation, biological sealants, and airway implants)].

About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Single-Dose, Gamma Scintigraphy Study to Assess the Pulmonary Deposition of Technetium-99m Radiolabelled Budesonide, Glycopyrronium and Formoterol Fumarate MDI in Patients With Moderate to Severe/Very Severe COPD.

This study is a single treatment period, single dose gamma scintigraphy study investigating the deposition in the lungs of a Budesonide, Glycopyrronium and Formoterol Fumarate Metered Dose Inhaler (BGF-MDI). This study will be investigating how the drug (known as PT010) is distributed in the lungs of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients (with moderate to very severe COPD) following a maximal 10 second breath hold. This inhaler is intended to be used in the treatment of COPD, which is a group of diseases which cause lung problems and difficulty breathing. PT010 is a new combination product of 3 marketed drugs called Glycopyrronium, Formoterol Fumarate and Budesonide.

Read the detailed description

This will be a single-dose study to assess the pulmonary deposition of Radiolabelled BGF MDI following administration in male and female patients with moderate to severe/very severe COPD. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) will be recorded from the time of signing of informed consent form to Post-study Follow-up phone call. Non-serious Adverse Events (AEs) will be collected from the first dose on Day 1 to Post-study Follow-up phone call. Study drug will be administered by inhalation.

The study will comprise of a Screening Visit, followed by a single Treatment Period and a Post-study Follow-up phone call. The Treatment Period will be from the afternoon before (Day 1) until 4 hours (h) post dose (Day 1). Patients will arrive at the Clinical Unit on Day 1. Patients will withhold their regular COPD medication in the morning of Day 1 and instead be given short-acting Ventolin Hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) and Atrovent HFA which may be used up to (but not within) 6 h prior to dosing. Investigational Product (IP) will be administered on the afternoon of Day 1 fasted (after a fast of at least 2 h) and patients will be discharged 4 h post dose (Day 1), provided there are no ongoing safety concerns. During the treatment period, patients will also undergo a Krypton-81m (81mKr) gas ventilation imaging scan and a Cobalt-57 (57Co) transmission scan. SAEs will be evaluated from the time of signing the informed consent form and up to the Post-study Follow-up phone call, non-serious AEs will be evaluated from Day 1 following IP dose and up to the Post-study Follow-up phone call. Approximately 20 patients (10 per cohort) will be enrolled for at least 16 to complete the study:

  • Approximately 10 patients with moderate COPD (Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) ≥50-<80% of predicted normal), for at least 8 completed patients.
  • Approximately 10 patients with severe/very severe COPD (FEV1 <50% of predicted normal), for at least 8 completed patients.

At the time of dosing, patients will be required to perform 2 inhalations (after priming) under the supervision of an Investigator. Immediately following each inhalation, patients will perform a maximal breath-hold, up to 10 s, prior to exhaling into an exhalation filter. Once the second breath hold and exhalation has been performed, patients will rinse their mouth with water and expel the washings for collection. Patients will then swallow bread and water.

Thereafter, posterior and anterior views of the lungs and stomach, and a lateral head and neck view will be recorded using a gamma camera. All images will be of a maximum of 200 s in duration. Images will also be acquired of the exhalation filter and collected mouth washings. Mass balance calculations will be undertaken to determine the fraction of the emitted dose delivered to the lungs of the patients. The distribution pattern of radiolabel within the lungs will be described in terms of a ratio of radioactive counts in different lung regions, after accounting for differences in regional lung volumes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BGF-MDI in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by AstraZeneca at 2 sites in United Kingdom.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 12 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United Kingdom. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The percentage (%) emitted dose of radiolabelled BGF MDI deposited in the lungs following a maximal breath-hold of up to 10 s. (time frame: Day 1). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03906045, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Feb 2021.
