Safety and Efficacy of Inhaled BMD003 (CFTR mRNA) in Chinese Cystic Fibrosis Patients Aged ≥12 Years

Официальное название

A Prospective, Single-center, Open-label Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Inhaled BMD003(CFTR mRNA) in Chinese Patients Aged 12 Years and Above With Cystic Fibrosis

Обзор

This is a prospective, single-center, open-label clinical study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of inhaled BMD003 (CFTR mRNA) in Chinese patients aged 12 years and above with cystic fibrosis (CF) following multiple administrations. Additionally, the study aims to explore the pharmacokinetic characteristics, immunogenicity, and relevant biomarkers of the drug. The study adopts a multiple-dose escalation design. Eligible patients will be sequentially enrolled into different cohorts, and the next cohort may receive a higher dose only after the safety data review of the previous dose cohort is completed. The entire study consists of four phases: screening period, safety observation period, continuous treatment period, and long-term follow-up period. Participants will receive nebulized inhalation of the study drug at the specified frequency. During the study, blood, sputum samples, and nasal swabs will be collected at designated time points for pharmacokinetic, immunogenicity, cytokine, and other related detections. Moreover, lung function tests, chest imaging, electrocardiograms, sweat chloride concentration tests, and other examinations will be performed at each visit. Meanwhile, the Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) will be used to assess the patients' health-related quality of life, so as to comprehensively evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study drug. Adverse events will be closely monitored and recorded throughout the study. The safety of the study drug will be comprehensively evaluated by summarizing various safety indicators such as adverse events and laboratory tests. All statistical analyses will be performed using professional statistical software, and descriptive statistical methods will be employed to analyze the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetic, and other related data of the study drug. The total duration of this study is 1 year, which is intended to provide a basis for the selection of the recommended dose for Phase Ⅱ clinical trials.

Подробное описание

This is a prospective, single-center, open-label, multiple-dose clinical study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of inhaled BMD003 (CFTR mRNA) administered repeatedly in Chinese patients with cystic fibrosis aged 12 years and older.

BMD003 is an investigational nebulized mRNA therapy that expresses functional human CFTR protein in airway epithelial cells to address the underlying genetic defect of cystic fibrosis. Eligible patients will receive once-weekly inhaled BMD003 for 12 consecutive weeks, followed by a long-term follow-up period to monitor safety, durability of effect, and clinical outcomes.

The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of repeated inhaled BMD003 by assessing adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, physical examinations, 12-lead ECG, pulmonary function, and other safety parameters throughout the study.

The secondary objective is to assess preliminary efficacy by measuring changes from baseline in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (ppFEV1) and in the score of the Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R).

Exploratory objectives include characterization of pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles in blood and sputum, evaluation of immunogenicity, assessment of sputum properties, sweat chloride concentration, nasal epithelial cell biomarkers, daily sputum volume, and other exploratory endpoints related to disease status and treatment response.

Вмешательства

• Препарат BMD003 (CFTR mRNA)
  Nebulized inhalation of BMD003 (CFTR mRNA) lyophilized preparation. The drug is reconstituted with sterile water for injection to the required concentration before use. Participants receive weekly administration for 12 consecutive weeks. Prior to each administration, airway clearance therapy (e.g., active cycle of breathing technique) is performed as standard care, with short-acting bronchodilators permitted if clinically indicated.

Первичные конечные точки

• Incidence of adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE) assessed by CTCAE 6.0 [Срок оценки: From first dose up to approximately 12 months]

Вторичные конечные точки (2)

• Change in percent predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (ppFEV1) measured by spirometry [Срок оценки: Baseline, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12]
• Change in Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) score [Срок оценки: Baseline, Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12]
