The goal of this Phase 2b clinical trial is to see if nebulized phage (BX004) can treat chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PsA) lung infection in CF subjects. The primary goal is to see if 8 weeks of twice daily BX004 can reduce the amount of PsA in the sputum compared to placebo (on top of background CF therapy).
A Phase 2b, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Study to Evaluate Nebulized Bacteriophage Treatment in Outpatient Adult Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Subjects With Chronic Pseudomonas Aeruginosa (PsA) Pulmonary Infection
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate BX004 in CF subjects with chronic PsA pulmonary infection. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate whether BX004 reduces the PsA burden in the sputum of CF subjects with chronic PsA pulmonary infection. Secondary endpoints are to see how well BX004 works in improving lung function and quality of life, reducing the amount of PsA in the sputum, getting negative sputum cultures for PsA, and safety and tolerability. Clinically stable CF subjects with a confirmed diagnosis of CF and chronic PsA pulmonary infection will be enrolled. Subjects will be included in a 6-month post-dose safety follow-up. A Data Safety Monitoring Board of the CF Foundation will monitor safety.
