Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The Change in Sputum Density of BCC in Colony Forming Units (CFUs)/ml From Day 0 to Day 28 of TIP Treatment.

    The change in sputum density of BCC in colony forming units (CFUs)/ml from day 0 to day 28 of TIP treatment. Sputum density was calculated by doing serial dilutions of sputum on agar plates and counting colony forming units expressed per ml.

    0 to 28 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • The Change in Pulmonary Function Tests, Including Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1), Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and Maximal Mid-expiratory Flow Rate (FEF25-75), Measured at Day 0 and Day 28 of TIP Treatment.

    0 to 28 days

Other Outcomes (5)

  • The Change in the Measurement of Markers of Pulmonary Inflammation (Neutrophil Counts, Neutrophil Elastase and IL-8 Levels in Sputum) Measured at Day 0 and Day 28 of TIP Treatment.

    0 to 28 days

  • Trough and Peak Sputum Tobramycin Concentration Measured on Day 28 of TIP Treatment.

    Day 28

  • The Change in BCC Planktonic and Biofilm MICs to Tobramycin Measured on Day 0 and on Day 28 of TIP Treatment.

    0 to 28 days

  • +2 more other outcomes

Study Arms (1)

TOBI Podhaler

EXPERIMENTAL
Drug: TOBI

Interventions

TOBIDRUG

New inhalation devices such as the podhaler can administer tobramycin inhalation powder TIP/TOBI and achieve very high sputum drug levels. TOBI will be administered using the Podhaler

TOBI Podhaler

Eligibility Criteria

Age6 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 6 years or older
  • Diagnosis of CF based on the following: sweat chloride\>60 mEq/L or genotype with 2 identifiable mutations consistent with CF; and one or more clinical features consistent with CF.
  • Chronically infected with a Burkholderia cepacia complex species (\>50% of respiratory specimens positive in the 24 months prior to screening).
  • Able to produce sputum (expectorated or induced).
  • Able to reproducibly perform pulmonary function testing.
  • Written informed consent provided.

You may not qualify if:

  • Post lung transplantation.
  • Pregnancy.
  • Acute exacerbation requiring IV or oral antibiotics within 14 days
  • Patients currently receiving inhaled tobramycin/TOBI
  • A septic or clinically unstable patient, as determined by the investigator.
