About this study
Official title: A Phase I, Open-label Study to Assess Lung Pharmacokinetics and Safety of a Single Dose of Apramycin Administered Intravenously in Healthy Adult Subjects
A Phase I, open label study of a single dose of 30 mg/kg of apramycin administered intravenously (IV) over 30 (+/- 5) minutes. Twenty subjects will be enrolled in the study to one of 5 cohorts, T1-T5, each corresponding to a timepoint after initiation of infusion at which a single fiberoptic bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is performed. There will be 4 subjects per cohort. Cohort T5 will be enrolled after plasma and lung apramycin concentrations and preliminary PK data analysis are completed in cohorts T1-T4. Enrollment and dosing will be determined by bronchoscopy schedule. For each cohort, if 2 subjects are scheduled to receive study drug on the same day, the dose will be administered sequentially at least 2 hours apart. The primary objective is to assess plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of apramycin and lung penetration of apramycin in epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and alveolar macrophages (AM) after single intravenous (IV) apramycin dose of 30 mg/kg in healthy subjects.

All PK parameters were estimated using Phoenix WinNonlin Non-compartmental analysis. Each participant only contributed one ELF and AM concentration at one time point, so the PK parameters for ELF and AM were calculated using the GM concentration at each BAL sampling time point, resulting in a single parameter estimate of ELF and AM across all participants. The PK parameters for total apramycin in plasma were calculated using the GM result of the total apramycin in plasma concentrations at the corresponding BAL time point.
Measured: 0 h through 8 h post dose
Secondary outcomes (10)
Frequency of Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Number of participants that experience any SAEs from Day 1 to Day 30. An AE is considered serious if, in the view of either the site principal investigator or sponsor, it results in: death, a life-threatening AE, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect.
Measured: Day 1 through Day 30
Frequency of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
The number of participants who experienced at least one unsolicited TEAE of any severity and relatedness. Any medical condition that was present at screening was considered a baseline finding and not reported as an AE. However, if the grade increased at any time during the trial such that it met the AE definition, it was recorded as an AE.
Measured: Day 1 through Day 30
Frequency of Abnormal Physical Exam Findings
Abnormal physical exam findings through Day 14. Physical exams included assessment of head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat; heart, lungs, abdomen, skin, musculoskeletal system, and lymph nodes.
Measured: Day 1 through Day 14
Frequency of Abnormal Vital Sign Findings
Abnormal vital sign findings through Day 14. Vital sign measurements include systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and oral temperature. If a vital sign finding met the threshold for an AE at baseline, subsequent vital sign results were only considered to be an AE if the grading worsened in severity.
Measured: Day 1 through Day 14
Frequency of Abnormal Chemistry Lab Measurements
Abnormal chemistry laboratory findings through Day 14. Graded chemistry laboratory measurements include sodium, potassium, glucose (fasting), blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, calcium, magnesium, carbon dioxide, albumin, total protein, alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, and direct bilirubin. If a clinical chemistry laboratory value met the threshold for an AE at baseline, subsequent safety laboratory results were only considered to be an AE if the grading worsened in severity.
Measured: Day 1 through Day 14
Frequency of Abnormal Hematology Lab Measurements
Abnormal hematology laboratory findings through Day 14. Graded hematology laboratory measurements include hemoglobin, platelet count, white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes, eosinophils, basophils, and monocytes. If a clinical hematology laboratory value met the threshold for an AE at baseline, subsequent safety laboratory results were only considered to be an AE if the grading worsened in severity.
Measured: Day 1 through Day 14
Frequency of Abnormal Coagulation Lab Measurements
Abnormal coagulation laboratory findings through Day 14. Graded coagulation laboratory measurements include activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, and prothrombin international normalized ratio.

Measured: Day 1 through Day 14
Frequency of Abnormal Urinalysis Lab Measurements
Abnormal urinalysis laboratory findings through Day 14. Urinalysis laboratory measurements include routine dipstick testing of clean-catch urine for blood, protein, and glucose. If urine dipstick was abnormal, urine microscopy was performed. If a clinical urinalysis laboratory value met the threshold for an AE at baseline, subsequent safety laboratory results were only considered to be an AE if the grading worsened in severity.
Measured: Day 1 through Day 14
Frequency of Abnormal Changes in Electrocardiographic (ECG) Results
Changes in ECG intervals and morphological changes from baseline up to 24 hours after dosing. The graded ECG measurements include PR interval and QTcF interval.
Measured: 0 h through 24 h post dose
Frequency of Audiology TEAEs

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
A Phase I, open label study of a single dose of 30 mg/kg of apramycin administered intravenously (IV) over 30 (+/- 5) minutes. Twenty subjects will be enrolled in the study to one of 5 cohorts, T1-T5, each corresponding to a timepoint after initiation of infusion at which a single fiberoptic bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is performed. There will be 4 subjects per cohort. Cohort T5 will be enrolled after plasma and lung apramycin concentrations and preliminary PK data analysis are completed in cohorts T1-T4. Enrollment and dosing will be determined by bronchoscopy schedule. For each cohort, if 2 subjects are scheduled to receive study drug on the same day, the dose will be administered sequentially at least 2 hours apart. The primary objective is to assess plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of apramycin and lung penetration of apramycin in epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and alveolar macrophages (AM) after single intravenous (IV) apramycin dose of 30 mg/kg in healthy subjects.

For each cohort, if 2 subjects are scheduled to receive study drug on the same day, the dose will be administered sequentially at least 2 hours apart. The primary objective is to assess plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of apramycin and lung penetration of apramycin in epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and alveolar macrophages (AM) after single intravenous (IV) apramycin dose of 30 mg/kg in healthy subjects. The secondary objectives are to 1) assess the safety of single IV administration of 30 mg/kg apramycin in healthy subject and 2) to assess changes in otoacoustic testing.

The ratios for Cmax (ug/mL), AUC 0-8 (ug*h/mL), and AUC 0-inf (ug*h/mL) of ELF to plasma and AM to plasma were calculated by dividing the Cmax (ug/mL), AUC 0-8 (ug*h/mL), and AUC 0-inf (ug*h/mL) of ELF and AM by the Cmax (ug/mL), AUC 0-8 (ug*h/mL), and AUC 0-inf (ug*h/mL) of total apramycin in plasma, respectively. All PK parameters were estimated using Phoenix WinNonlin Non-compartmental analysis. Each participant only contributed one ELF and AM concentration at one time point, so the PK parameters for ELF and AM were calculated using the GM concentration at each BAL sampling time point, resulting in a single parameter estimate of ELF and AM across all participants. The PK parameters for total apramycin in plasma were calculated using the GM result of the total apramycin in plasma concentrations at the corresponding BAL time point.

A Phase 1 study testing Apramycin (EBL-1003) in people with Bacterial Infection, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 1 site in United States.
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 26 inclusion and 35 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 6 Mar 2025. 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 United States. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Dec 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 8 h (AUC 0-8) of Total Apramycin in Epithelial Lining Fluid (ELF) and Alveolar Macrophage (AM) (time frame: 0 h through 8 h post dose). The study lists 15 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Mar 2025.
