About this study

Official title: Randomized Phase 1 Study of Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Segmental Lung Deposition, and Digital Validation of a Breath-Actuated EDDIS Inhalation Delivery System Using 99mTc-DTPA in Healthy Volunteers

Device:

EDDIS-IDDS (Enhanced Digital Dose Inhalation Delivery System) - a portable, breath-actuated, digitally monitored system for precision delivery of inhaled agents with automated recording of inspiratory volume, flow, duration, and breath-hold parameters.

Drug:

99mTc-DTPA (technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) - administered in aqueous solution (0.9% NaCl), radiolabeled for gamma scintigraphic imaging.

Total dose: 500-800 µCi in 2 ml solution.

Administration:

Single-dose inhalation under supervision in a clinical setting.

Read the detailed description

This Phase 1, single-center, open-label clinical study is designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, inhalation dynamics, segmental lung deposition, and digital monitoring capabilities of the breath-actuated EDDIS-IDDS (Enhanced Digital Dose Inhalation Delivery System) when used to deliver a radiolabeled aqueous formulation containing 99mTc-DTPA and a microdose of perfluorocarbon emulsion.

The investigational aerosol is administered via a digitally controlled inhalation system that automatically triggers delivery based on the patient's inspiratory effort. The system continuously records real-time parameters including tidal volume, inspiratory flow rate, inhalation duration, and breath-hold time. These data are securely transmitted and stored for analysis, enabling high-resolution correlation between inhalation patterns and lung deposition outcomes.

The radiolabel (99mTc-DTPA) is confined to the aqueous phase of the aerosol. The perfluorocarbon emulsion is included to simulate the aerodynamic behavior of complex liquid formulations and to evaluate their interaction with the lung architecture under controlled inhalation conditions. Radiolabeling is not applied to the perfluorocarbon phase, ensuring imaging specificity and avoiding nonspecific signal interference.

Imaging will be performed using planar gamma scintigraphy at 0, 15, and 30 minutes post-inhalation. Anterior and posterior projections will be acquired to allow quantitative segmental lung analysis. Measurements will include total deposition, central vs. peripheral distribution, and temporal sedimentation characteristics.

In parallel, blood samples will be collected at 1, 2, and 4 hours post-dose to determine systemic pharmacokinetics of the radiolabeled tracer. Urine samples collected at 4 hours will be used to calculate cumulative renal excretion. Adverse events, vital signs, and laboratory parameters will be monitored for 24 hours post-inhalation to assess tolerability and safety.

This study aims to establish a validated digital platform for inhaled delivery research and serve as a reference model for future studies involving targeted pulmonary therapeutics and diagnostic aerosols.

The formulation includes a non-labeled microdose of perfluorocarbon emulsion to simulate clinical aerodynamic behavior.

  • EDDIS-IDDS (Enhanced Digital Dose Inhalation Delivery System)Device

    Also called EDDIS digital inhaler, breath-actuated inhalation device

    Portable, maintenance-free breath-actuated inhalation delivery system with integrated digital sensors. Records real-time data including inspiratory volume, flow rate, duration, and breath-hold time. Provides controlled aerosol delivery and secure transmission of inhalation parameters to the clinical monitoring platform.

What is being measured

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

  1. Segmental lung deposition of 99mTc-DTPA measured by planar gamma scintigraphy

    Quantitative analysis of 99mTc-DTPA distribution in lung segments using planar gamma scintigraphy imaging system with anterior/posterior views at 0, 15, and 30 minutes post-dose. Results expressed as percentage of total deposited dose per lung segment.

    Measured: Within 30 minutes post-inhalation

  2. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) assessed by clinical evaluation

    Number and severity of adverse events recorded after a single inhalation of 99mTc-DTPA via the EDDIS system, assessed through standardized clinical observation checklist, vital signs monitoring (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature), and structured subject symptom reports using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0.

    Measured: Within 24 hours post-inhalation

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Radioactivity concentration in venous blood samples measured using gamma counter to determine systemic absorption of inhaled 99mTc-DTPA over time. Results expressed as counts per minute per milliliter (cpm/mL)

    Radioactivity in venous blood samples to determine systemic absorption of inhaled 99mTc-DTPA over time

    Measured: Up to 4 hours post-dose (samples at 1, 2, and 4 hours)

  2. Cumulative urinary excretion of 99mTc-DTPA measured by gamma counter analysis

    Total radioactivity in collected urine samples measured using gamma counter to estimate renal elimination of 99mTc-DTPA. Results expressed as percentage of administered dose excreted

    Measured: up to 4 hours post-dose

  3. Digital accuracy of inspiratory parameter recording assessed by calibration comparison

    Comparison of EDDIS-recorded inspiratory volume (mL), flow rate (L/min), inhalation time (seconds), and breath-hold duration (seconds) with reference calibration measurements using validated spirometry equipment. Accuracy expressed as percentage deviation from reference values.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Technetium-99m Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic Acid and EDDIS-IDDS (Enhanced Digital Dose Inhalation Delivery System) in people with Healthy Volunteers, run by Andrey Petrov at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 14 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Nov 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 Switzerland. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Segmental lung deposition of 99mTc-DTPA measured by planar gamma scintigraphy (time frame: Within 30 minutes post-inhalation). 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 19 Nov 2025.
