New inhaled drug for cystic fibrosis enters human testing
NCT ID NCT06237335
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 20, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study is the first time the drug RCT2100 is being tested in humans. It aims to check the safety and tolerability of single and multiple doses in healthy adults and people with cystic fibrosis (CF). The trial will also see how the drug spreads in the body and gather early proof that it might help control CF. About 192 participants will take part across three parts, including a group that receives the drug alongside standard CF medication.

Part 1 Major Inclusion Criteria: * Healthy, adult, male or female, 18-55 years of age, inclusive, at screening. * Body weight greater than or equal to 50 kg and body mass index (BMI) between 16-32 kg/m2, inclusive * The participant has a forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) of at least 80% predicted * The participant is considered by the investigator to be in good general health as determined by medical history, clinical laboratory test results, vital sign measurements, 12-lead ECG results, and physical examination findings at screening. * Understands the study procedures in the informed consent form (ICF), and is willing and able to comply with the protocol. Part 1 Major Exclusion Criteria: * History or presence of clinically significant medical, surgical, clinical laboratory, or psychiatric condition or disease. * The participant has supine blood pressure (BP) \>150 mm Hg (systolic) or \>90 mm Hg (diastolic), following at least 5 minutes of supine rest. * The participant has abnormal clinical laboratory tests at screening, as assessed by the study-specific laboratory. * The participant is a smoker or has used nicotine or nicotine-containing products 6 weeks before the first dose of study drug. Former smokers with greater than 10 pack years of smoking history are excluded. Part 2 Major Inclusion Criteria: * Confirmed diagnosis of CF * Forced expiratory volume in 1 second ≥50% and ≤100% of predicted mean value for age, sex, and height * a) Not eligible for CFTR modulators based on having mutations of CFTR gene on both alleles that are not responsive to CFTR modulator therapy OR * b) Eligible for CFTR modulators (based on local prescribing information) but not using CFTR modulators due to intolerance or contraindications Part 2 Major Exclusion Criteria: * Hepatic cirrhosis with portal hypertension, moderate hepatic impairment (Child Pugh Score 7 to 9), or severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh Score 10 to 15) * An acute upper or lower respiratory infection, pulmonary exacerbation, or changes in therapy (including antibiotics) for sinopulmonary disease within 4 weeks before the first dose of study drug * Lung infection with organisms associated with a more rapid decline in pulmonary status * Arterial oxygen saturation on room air less than 94% at screening * Treatment with a CFTR modulator (Kalydeco, Trikafta, Symdeko, Orkambi, or Alyftrek) within 12 weeks of Screening Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply. Part 3 Major Inclusion Criteria: * Confirmed diagnosis of CF * Forced expiratory volume in 1 second ≥50% and ≤100% of predicted mean value for age, sex, and height * a) Not eligible for CFTR modulators based on having mutations of CFTR gene on both alleles that are not responsive to CFTR modulator therapy OR * b) Eligible for dual or triple CFTR modulators (based on local prescribing information) but not using CFTR modulators due to intolerance or contraindications Part 3 Major Exclusion Criteria: * Hepatic cirrhosis with portal hypertension, moderate hepatic impairment (Child Pugh Score 7 to 9), or severe hepatic impairment (Child Pugh Score 10 to 15) * An acute upper or lower respiratory infection, pulmonary exacerbation, or changes in therapy (including antibiotics) for sinopulmonary disease within 4 weeks before the first dose of study drug * Lung infection with organisms associated with a more rapid decline in pulmonary status * Arterial oxygen saturation on room air less than 94% at screening * Treatment with a CFTR modulator (Kalydeco, Trikafta, Symdeko, Orkambi, or Alyftrek) within 12 weeks of Screening Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
