A Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Inhaler Comparison Study in Healthy Volunteers

Asthma Clinical Trial

Official title: A Randomised, Open-label, 2-group PK (3-period) and PD (5-period) Crossover Study to Compare Systemic Exposure and Pharmacodynamic Effects of Fluticasone/Formoterol BAI and pMDI in Healthy Volunteers

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

A 2-group healthy volunteer study to compare a breath actuated inhaler (BAI) and a pressurised metered dose inhaler (pMDI) with and without spacer.

Clinical Trial Description

Group 1 will assess pharmacokinetics, Group 2 will assess pharmacodynamics. PK interim analysis to determine requirement for PK extension.

Group 1 (PK) blood sampling and safety assessments up to 36 hours post-dose for 3 study periods. Results from PK stage will determine if Group 2 (PD) is required. Group 2 (PD) will assess LABA only effects (as confirmed in interim analysis).

Group 2 (PD) to include 2 overnight stays for 5 study periods. Volunteers will receive a single dose of study medication, with discharge on Day 2.

Study treatments are fluticasone/formoterol BAI, fluticasone/formoterol pMDI with/without spacer, formoterol alone without spacer, and low dose fluticasone/formoterol without spacer.

Volunteers will undergo blood sampling, and safety assessments up to the morning of discharge. An inspiratory flow recorder (IPR) will be used for training and to monitor inspiratory flow rate, inhaled volume and inhalation technique. ;
