Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

CHF 6333 is a medicinal product on development for the treatment of cystic fibrosis and non-CF bronchiectasis and undergoing clinical testing. It has not yet been approved by the authorities for the treatment of these diseases. CHF6333 is an inhaled anti-inflammatory which mechanism of action is based on the inhibition of Human Neutrofil Elastase. The safety and tolerability of single and repeated ascending doses of inhaled CHF 6333 was previously investigated in healthy subjects: information was gathered on the uptake, distribution and excretion of the medicinal product being tested (pharmacokinetics). In this current clinical trial CHF 6333 will be tested in patients(CF and NCFB) for the first time. Three dose level will be tested during the first part of the study, as single administration. One repeated dose will be administered in the second part of the study.

Protocol

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.
Design Details

68 patients to be enrolled

Total number of participants that the clinical trial aims to recruit.

Treatment Study

These studies test new ways to treat a disease, condition, or health issue. The goal is to see if a new drug, therapy, or approach works better or has fewer side effects than existing options.



Eligibility

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria: person's general health condition or prior treatments.
