Study to Evaluate Itraconazole Administered as Inhaled Dry Powder in Adults With Asthma and ABPA

Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about PUR1900 as an inhaled, antifungal therapeutic for the treatment of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) in patients with asthma. The main questions it aims to answer are:
1. Is PUR1900 safe and well tolerated in adults with asthma and ABPA?
2. Is there an effect of daily administration of PUR1900 on potential outcome measures in adults with asthma and ABPA?
3. Is there fungal resistance to A. fumigatus?
This study includes a 28-day screening period, a 112-day (16-week) treatment period, and a 56-day (8 week) observation period.
Participants will take either 40mg of PUR1900, 20 mg of PUR1900 or Placebo for 112 days and complete an eDairy, answer questions about their asthma and complete peak respiratory flow measurements at home. They will come to the clinic approximate once a month during the treatment period and complete study assessments. At the end of the observation period participants will complete one more clinic visit. Participants who complete this study may be given the opportunity to continue on study drug in an open label extension study.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Is a male or female, ≥18 years old at the time of signing the informed consent.
* BMI of ≥18.0 and \<40.0 kg/m2 at screening.
* Has a diagnosis of asthma, as per the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) 2018 update
* Has a confirmed diagnosis of ABPA, based on the modified International Society for human and Animal Mycology (ISHAM) ABPA working group 2013 and 2021 criteria including a history of or documentation at screening of serum IgE ≥ 500 IU/mL and A. fumigatus-specific IgE\>0.35KUA/L, or above normal IgE antibody to A. fumigatus, or a positive immediate skin test and at least 2 of the 3 following supportive criteria: eosinophil count \>500 cells/µL; A. fumigatus-specific IgG \>27 mgA/L or presence of precipitating (or above normal immunoglobulin G \[IgG\]) antibody to A. fumigatus; consistent radiographic opacities or bronchiectasis on chest CT.
* Is currently considered to be in one of the following stages of ABPA: Stage 2 (Response), Stage 4 (Remission), Stage 5a (Treatment-dependent ABPA), or Stage 5b (Glucocorticoid-dependent asthma).
* At least 1 exacerbation requiring a systemic glucocorticosteroid(s) in the 12 months prior to Screening. For patients on a biologic agent, at least one exacerbation requiring a systemic glucocorticosteroid(s) must have occurred at least 3 months after the initiation of the biologic agent.
* Has a serum IgE ≥500 IU/mL at screening.
* Has a documented stable asthma medication regimen during the 28 days prior to th…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
