• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1
• Total Enrollment: 47 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2020-10-19

Brief Summary

The study will evaluate bioavailability, pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of budesonide, glycopyrronium and formoterol (BGF) metered dose inhaler (MDI) formulated with 3 different propellants: Propellant 1 (Treatment A [test]), Propellant 2 (Treatment B [test]) and Hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) (Treatment C [reference]).

Detailed Description

The study will comprise:

• Screening period: up to 28 days prior to first dosing;
• Three treatment periods of maximum 3 days each: participants will be resident from the morning of the day before the first dosing with BGF MDI (Day -1) in Treatment Period 1, throughout all treatment and washout periods up to discharge on Day 2 of Treatment Period 3;
• Follow-up: within 3 to 7 days after the last administration of BGF MDI. There will be a washout period of 3 to 7 days between each dose.

Each participant will receive 3 single-dose treatments of BGF MDI (1 dose Propellant 1 [Treatment A]; 1 dose Propellant 2 [Treatment B] and 1 dose HFA [Treatment C]), following an overnight fast of at least 8 hours. Each participant will be involved in the study for up to 53 days.
