Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This Phase 1/2a study is a double-blinded (subject and Investigator), randomized, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple nebulized doses of IONIS-ENaCRx.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will be conducted in 3 parts: a single ascending dose (SAD) leading to a multiple ascending dose (MAD) in healthy volunteers, followed by a MAD in patients with cystic fibrosis. The study will enroll up to 88 participants.

The study will consist of 4 single-dose randomized cohorts. Participants enrolled will receive a single inhaled dose of the Study Drug (IONIS-ENaCRx or placebo) on Day 1.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Clinically-significant (CS) abnormalities in medical history, screening laboratory results, physical or physical examination that would render a subject unsuitable for inclusion, including but not limited to:

3. Respiratory infection within 4 weeks of Study Day 1
4. Presence or past history of CS chronic respiratory disease, including any current history (or within 2 years) of asthma. History of allergic rhinitis is acceptable
5. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) \< 80% of predicted at Screening or an FEV1/FVC ratio of \< 0.7
6. Smoking of a tobacco or nicotine-containing product within the previous 6 months (use of a nicotine patch is permitted) or a smoking history of ≥ 10 pack years
7. Any CS finding on chest radiograph

12. Blood donation of 50 to 499 mL within 30 days of screening or of \> 499 mL within 60 days of screening


1. Clinically-significant (CS) abnormalities in medical history, screening laboratory results, physical or physical examination that would render a subject unsuitable for inclusion, including but not limited to:

1. Abnormal liver function defined as \> 2 times upper limit of normal (ULN) for bilirubin, or 3 time ULN for ALT, AST, or alkaline phosphatase
2. Platelet count \< LLN
