Evaluation of a Single Dose of Inhaled Sargramostim in Patients With Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis

United States10 participantsStarted 2017-07-13

Plain-language summary

Autoimmune PAP is a rare lung disease affecting less than 5,000 individuals in US with no FDA-approved pharmacologic therapy. Results from "off-label" use in case reports and clinical studies completed outside of the US indicate that inhaled rhGM-CSF may be a safe and effective thera-py for autoimmune PAP. Preliminary clinical trials of inhaled rhGM-CSF in autoimmune PAP patients show promising results, 62%-96% therapeutic response rate without any identifiable drug-related adverse effects in at least 73 autoimmune PAP patients. However, the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), optimal dose, and treatment duration to maximize efficacy are unknown. The goal is to begin to address these knowledge gaps for inhaled sargramostim for autoimmune PAP patients with a pilot safety and PK/PD study (TPSC-110). TPSC-110, PharmPAP, which is a self-controlled open-label, phase I study to evaluate the safety, PK, and PD of inhaled sargra-mostim in autoimmune PAP patients. These results will impact the field by 1) confirming existing published data, 2) monitoring the local effects of inhaled sargramostim in autoimmune PAP patients, 3) potentially demonstrating a safe starting dose for a later trial to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of inhaled sargramostim for autoimmune PAP.
