Summary

This study looks at how well an inhaled antifungal drug (liposomal amphotericin B) reaches the lungs in people with chronic pulmonary aspergillosis, a long-term lung infection. About 18 adults will inhale two different doses on separate days and then have special scans to see where the drug goes in their lungs. The goal is to find the best dose and delivery method, not to cure the disease.
