Pharmacokinetics and Lung Bioavailability of BDP/Formoterol HFA Fixed Combination After Single Administration in 12 Healthy Volunteers Using the Standard Actuator With or Without Charcoal Block or the Aerochamber Spacer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the systemic exposure of BDP, its metabolite beclomethasone 17-monopropionate (B17MP) and formoterol after inhalation of BDP/Formoterol 100/6 µg pMDI combination (CHF1535) using the standard actuator and charcoal block technique or using a Spacer (AeroChamber Plus, Trudell) in comparison with inhalation using the standard actuator

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 45 years (ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Systemic exposure and lung bioavailability of BDP, B17MP and formoterol.
Time Frame: from pre-dose until 12 h post-dose
from pre-dose until 12 h post-dose

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
General tolerability and safety of the test product.
Time Frame: from pre-dose until 12 h post-dose
from pre-dose until 12 h post-dose
