A Phase 1 Study to Characterize the Effect of GS-5737 Enhancement of Mucociliary Clearance (MCC) in Healthy Subjects

A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Cross-Over, Vehicle-Controlled, Single-Dose Study To Characterize The Effect of GS-5737 Enhancement of Mucociliary Clearance (MCC) In Healthy Subjects

This is a randomized, double-blind, cross-over, vehicle-controlled study to determine whether GS-5737 in 2.8% saline accelerates mucociliary clearance (MCC) in healthy subjects, compared to vehicle of 2.8% saline alone.
