Foster With or Without Charcoal Block or Aerochamber Plus

July 30, 2020 updated by: Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A.

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
