PHASE2

Amikacin Liposome Inhalation Suspension for Treatment of Mycobacterium Xenopi Pulmonary Infection

Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Treatment of Mycobacterium xenopi (MX) lung disease is not-well- tolerated and concerned a growing number of patients, especially with chronic pulmonary diseases or immunosuppression. The outcome of these patients is poor, and treatment is very long. Indeed, this duration is based on the date of sputum conversion. Treatment should be continued until 12 months after sputum conversion. In the vast majority patients have converted after 6 months of treatment, so a 18 months duration in total. Unfortunately, few data are available for MX, as it is rare in USA, but it is the second NTM isolated in France and concerns an increasing number of patients. As it is uncommon in USA, no clinical studies conducted by the pharmaceutical laboratory will be planned. In a murine model of MX infection, the only drug which decreased the number colony formant units in mice lungs, was amikacin. Until now, amikacin was only available intravenously and used only for patients with very severe disease, because of renal and auditory toxicity. Amikacin liposome inhalation suspension (ARIKAYCE®) is amikacin sulfate encapsulated in liposomes for inhalational delivery. ARIKAYCE® increases amikacin uptake into alveolar macrophages, a refuge for NTM organisms; allows biofilm penetration; and limits systemic amikacin exposure ARIKAYCE® has already be tested in a randomized study on M. avium complex (MAC) refractory pulmonary infections. In this study, the culture conversion rate in the ARIKAYCE® group was higher than standard regimen group.

Interventions

DRUG

Arikayce

Treatment regimens containing three molecules, rifampicin, ethambutol, and clarithromycin with ARIKAYCE® during the 6 first months of treatment. After having confirmed the presence of all inclusion criteria and the absence of all exclusion criteria, and after having obtained the patient's free and informed consent, the patient will be included and randomized to one of the treatment regimens.

DRUG

After having confirmed the presence of all inclusion criteria and the absence of all exclusion criteria, and after having obtained the patient's free and informed consent, the patient will be included and randomized to one of the treatment regimens.
