Study of Aztreonam for Inhalation in Children With Cystic Fibrosis and New Infection of the Airways by Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Bacteria
ALPINE 2
Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 3B Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of 2 Treatment Regimens of Aztreonam 75 mg Powder and Solvent for Nebulizer Solution / Aztreonam for Inhalation Solution (AZLI) in Pediatric Subjects With Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and New Onset Respiratory Tract Pseudomonas Aeruginosa (PA) Infection/Colonization

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of Participants With Pseudomonas Aeruginosa (PA)-Negative Cultures Through 28 Days Post-Treatment in the 14-Day Treatment Group vs 28-Day Treatment Group
28 days post treatment (Weeks 4 to 6 for the 14 Day treatment group and Weeks 4 to 8 for the 28 Day treatment group)
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Time From Primary Eradication to PA Recurrence Over a 108-Week Post-Treatment Follow-up Period
Last dose date of AZLI up to Week 112
Percentage of Participants With PA-negative Cultures Through 28 Days Post-Treatment in the 14-Day Treatment Group vs Historical Pooled Data for PA Eradication at 28 Days Post-Treatment in Participants Treated With Tobramycin Nebulizer Solution (TNS)
28 days post treatment (Weeks 4 to 6 for the 14 Day treatment group)
Time to PA Recurrence for a Sub-Group of Participants Matching the Population in the TNS ELITE Study Over a 108-Week Post-Treatment Follow-up Period
Last dose date of AZLI up to Week 112
Study Arms (2)
AZLI + Placebo
EXPERIMENTAL75 mg/ml of aztreonam will be administered thrice daily (TID) for 14 days followed by placebo to match (PTM) aztreonam TID for 14 days.
AZLI
EXPERIMENTAL75 mg/ml of aztreonam will be administered TID for 28 days.
Interventions

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) as determined by the 2008 CF Consensus Conference criteria: Sweat chloride level ≥ 60 milliequivalents per liter (mEq/L) by quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis; or a genotype with 2 identifiable mutations consistent with CF; or an abnormal nasal transepithelial potential difference (NPD), and 1 or more clinical features consistent with CF
- Documented new onset of positive respiratory tract culture for PA within 30 days of screening defined as either first lifetime documented PA-positive culture, or PA recovered after at least a 2-year history of PA-negative respiratory cultures (at least 2 cultures per year)
- Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) ≥ 80% predicted (for subjects ≥ 6 years of age who can reliably perform spirometry assessments)
- Clinically stable with no evidence of acute significant respiratory symptoms that would require administration of intravenous (IV) antipseudomonal antibiotics, oxygen supplementation, or hospitalization
You may not qualify if:
- Use of IV or inhaled antipseudomonal antibiotics within 2 years of screening
- Use of oral antipseudomonal antibiotics for a respiratory event within 30 days of study entry (screening visit)
- History of intolerance to inhaled short acting β2 agonists
- History of lung transplantation
- Current requirement for daily continuous oxygen supplementation or requirement of more than 2 L/minute at night
- Hospitalization for a respiratory event within 30 days prior to screening
- Changes in bronchodilator, corticosteroid, dornase alfa, or hypertonic saline medications within 7 days prior to screening.
- Significant changes (per investigators discretion) in physiotherapy technique or schedule within 7 days prior to screening
- Abnormal renal or hepatic function results at most recent test within the previous 12 months, defined as Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \> 5 times upper limit of normal (ULN), or Serum creatinine \> 2 times ULN for age
- Presence of a condition or abnormality that would compromise the subject's safety or the quality of the study data, in the opinion of the Investigator
- Known hypersensitivity to aztreonam, its metabolites, or formulation excipients in AZLI
- Respiratory cultures performed within 24 months prior to screening that are positive for ANY Burkholderia spp. or Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM)
