New treatment option for Chronic Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Infection
Official title Study With Phage for CF Subjects With Pseudomonas Lung Infection
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06998043
What this study is testing
What is BX004?
BX004 is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily inhaled treatment, being studied as a potential treatment for chronic pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.
Also referred to as Combination of nebulized bacteriophages targeting Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- 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).
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
