About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Randomized, Double-blind, Single-dose, Partial Replicate, 3-way Cross-over Study to Assess the Total Systemic Exposure Bioequivalence of Budesonide, Glycopyrronium, and Formoterol Delivered by BGF MDI HFO Compared With BGF MDI HFA in Healthy Adult Participants

This study aims to assess the bioequivalence of the total systemic exposure and safety of budesonide, glycopyrronium, and formoterol (160/14.4/4.8 µg/actuation) when administered as BGF MDI HFO compared with BGF MDI HFA in healthy participants.

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase I, randomized, double-blind, single-dose, single-site, three way cross-over study to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety of BGF MDI with HFO propellant compared with BGF MDI with HFA propellant in healthy participants (male or female).

The study will comprise of:

  • A Screening period of up to 27 days;
  • Three Treatment periods: Participants will receive a single dose of the study intervention on three separate occasions (Period 1, Period 2 and Period 3), with the final dose on Day 2 of Treatment Period 3, and a washout period of 5 to 7 days between administration of each dose;
  • A final Safety Follow-up within 5 to 7 days after the last administration of the study intervention in Treatment Period 3.

Participants will receive all the treatments as a single dose (2 inhalations) (Treatment A [BGF MDI HFO - test formulation], and Treatment B [BGF MDI HFA - reference formulation]) in one of the 3 possible treatment sequences: ABB, BAB, or BBA. Each participant will be involved in the study for up to 52 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Treatment A: BGF MDI HFO and Treatment B: BGF MDI HFA in people with Healthy Participants, run by AstraZeneca 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 7 inclusion and 12 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 5 Jun 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?

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?

Area under concentration curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration (AUClast) (time frame: Pre-dose and 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 45 minutes post-dose, and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours post-dose). The study lists 2 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 5 Jun 2025.
