NCT03460704

Brief Summary

The primary objective of the trial was to investigate the effect of the use of inhaled colistimethate sodium (CMS), administered twice a day (b.i.d.) via a specific nebulizer for 12 months, compared to placebo in subjects with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) chronically infected with P. aeruginosa on the annualised frequency of pulmonary exacerbations.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Mean Annual Non-cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis (NCFB) Pulmonary Exacerbation Rate

    The primary efficacy assessment for an individual subject was the frequency of pulmonary exacerbations (exacerbation rate). A pulmonary exacerbation was defined as the presence concurrently of at least three of the following eight symptoms/signs for at least 24 hours: * increased cough; * increased sputum volume and/or consistency; * increased sputum purulence; * new or increased haemoptysis; * increased wheezing; * increased dyspnoea; * increased fatigue/malaise and * episodes of fever (temperature ≥38°C). AND It was clinically determined that the subject required and was prescribed systemic antibiotic therapy. AND The episode of exacerbation lasted for at least 24 hours. The overall episode of exacerbation needs to last at least 24 hours, but individual symptoms/signs can last less than 24 hours (e.g, a temperature)

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

CMS (Colistimethate Sodium)

EXPERIMENTAL

Inhaled colistimethate sodium twice daily. The active pharmaceutical ingredient consisting of pure CMS one million international units (MIU) / 80 mg of CMS / 33 mg colistin base activity (CBA) was provided as a powder for nebuliser solution in 10R Internation Organization for Standardization (ISO) glass vials.

Drug: CMS

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Saline solution inhaled twice daily, provided and administered at the same way of the IMP.

Other: Placebo

Interventions

CMSDRUG

1 MIU equivalent to 80 mg colistimethate sodium diluted in 1 mL saline solution 0.45%. Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) glass vials were shrink wrapped in opaque white plastic and provided in boxes of 30 vials (two weeks of b.i.d. dosing). The 1 MIU/ml CMS/0.45% saline solution was transferred from the glass vial into a specific nebuliser system fitted with a 0.3 mL medication chamber, for administration by inhalation. This delivered a nominal dose of 0.3 MIU/24 mg CMS (11 mg CBA) from the device. The first dose of the IMP was administered at the site under the supervision of the site staff and subjects were instructed how to prepare and self-administer the IMP at home via a specific nebuliser system, b.i.d. (morning and evening) over aperiod of 12 month. At least 10 minutes (min) before each administration, an inhaled short-acting bronchodilator (e.g. salbutamol/albuterol), supplied by the Sponsor, could be taken to improve tolerability.

Also known as: Promixin
CMS (Colistimethate Sodium)
PlaceboOTHER

1 mL saline solution 0.45%. The placebo was made up of identical empty glass vials to which the same saline solution diluent was added in exactly the same way as the reconstitution of the active treatment by injecting the diluent through the rubber stopper. The glass vials were shrink wrapped with opaque white plastic to mantain the blind.

  • diagnosed with NCFB by computerised tomography (CT) or high-resolution CT(HRCT) as recorded in the subject's notes and this is their predominant condition being treated;
  • had at least 2 NCFB pulmonary exacerbations requiring oral or inhaled antibiotics or 1 NCFB pulmonary exacerbation requiring intravenous antibiotics in the 12 months preceding the Screening Visit (Visit 1) and had no pulmonary exacerbation with or without treatment during the period between Visit 1 and Visit 2;
  • have a documented history of P. aeruginosa infection;

  • known history of hypogammaglobulinaemia requiring treatment with immunoglobulin, unless fully replaced and considered immuno-competent by the Investigator;
  • myasthenia gravis or porphyria;
  • severe cardiovascular disease such as severe uncontrolled hypertension, ischaemic heart disease or cardiac arrhythmia and any other conditions that would confound the evaluation of safety, in the opinion of the Investigator;

  • current active malignancy, except for basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin without metastases;
  • taking immunosuppressive medications (such as azathioprine, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, sirolimus, mycophenolate, rituximab), and/or anti cytokine medications (such as anti-IL-6 and anti-tumour alpha necrosis factor products) in the preceding year before the Screening Visit (Visit 1);
  • known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV);
  • current treatment for non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease or tuberculosis;
  • known or suspected to be allergic or unable to tolerate colistimethate sodium (intravenous or inhaled) or other polymixins, including evidence of bronchial hyper-reactivity following inhaled colistimethate sodium;
  • treatment with long term (≥ 30 days) prednisone at a dose of greater than 15 mg a day (or equivalent dose of any other corticosteroid) started within six months of the Screening Visit (Visit 1);
  • new maintenance treatment with any oral macrolides ( (e.g. azithromycin/erythromycin/clarithromycin) within 30 days of the Screening Visit (Visit 1) or started between Visit 1 and Visit 2;
  • +4 more criteria
