ENCORE - A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Active Comparator, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of an Amikacin Liposome Inhalation Suspension (ALIS)-Based Regimen in Adult Subjects With Newly Diagnosed Nontuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) Lung Infection Caused by Mycobacterium Avium Complex (MAC)
ENCORE - A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Active Comparator, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of an Amikacin Liposome Inhalation Suspension (ALIS)-Based Regimen in Adult Subjects With Newly Diagnosed Nontuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) Lung Infection Caused by Mycobacterium Avium Complex (MAC)
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ALIS (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension) + background regimen (azithromycin [AZI] + ethambutol [ETH]) compared to the ELC (empty liposome control) + background regimen on participant-reported respiratory symptoms at Month 13.
Inclusion Criteria:
Male or female, ≥ 18 years of age (19 years or older in South Korea, 20 years or older in Japan).
Current diagnosis of MAC lung infection. MAC or mixed infection with MAC as the dominant species is allowed, with MAC as the intended organism for treatment.
A chest computerized tomography (CT) scan, read locally, within 6 months prior to Screening to determine presence and size of pulmonary cavities. Participants who do not have a chest CT scan within 6 months prior to Screening will be required to obtain a chest CT scan, read locally, during Screening.
Willingness and ability to adhere to prescribed study treatment during the study.
Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) (ie, fertile following menarche and until becoming postmenopausal unless permanently sterile) and fertile men (ie, all men after puberty unless permanently sterile by bilateral orchidectomy) agree to practice a highly effective method of birth control from Day 1 to at least 90 days after the last dose. Examples of such birth controls are:
Provide signed informed consent prior to administration of study drugs or performing any study-related procedure.
Be able to comply with study drugs use, study visits, and study procedures as defined by the protocol.
Men with partners who are WOCBP (pregnant or non-pregnant) agree to use condoms and non-pregnant partners should practice a highly effective method of birth control
