Product Name: IDPM: Inhaled Dry Powder Mannitol
Product Code: IDPM
Pharmaceutical Form: Inhalation powder, hard capsule
INN or Proposed INN: MANNITOL
CAS Number: 69658
Concentration unit: mg milligram(s)
Concentration type: equal
Concentration number: 40-

Primary Outcome(s)

Primary end point(s): Change in absolute FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in 1 second)

Main Objective: To determine the effects of 400 mg twice-daily administration of IDPM on FEV1 in all patients with CF compared to control.

Secondary Objective: • To determine the effects of 400 mg twice-daily administration of IDPM on FEV1 in patients with CF on existing RhDNase treatment compared to control. (key objective)
To assess whether IDPM treatment:
• Reduces pulmonary exacerbations in those taking RhDNase as a sub-group and in the total cohort (key objective)
• Improves quality of life (key objective)
• Reduces days on IV antibiotics, rescue oral or inhaled antibiotics
• Reduces days in hospital due to pulmonary exacerbations
• Improves other measures of lung function
• Demonstrates an appropriate safety profile (adverse events, haematology, biochemistry, change in bronchodilator response, sputum microbiology, physical examination)
• Reduces hospital and community care costs
