Imaging FIB ONE in the Human Lung Using Endomicroscopy

The primary endpoint is to visualise the delivery of a microdose of FIB ONE and assess imaging parameters in patients with lung conditions using two microendoscopy systems (Part A). A secondary objective is to quantify the change in mean FIB ONE fluorescence amplification gradient in the presence of AZD1236 in the fibroproliferative lung (Part B). Imaging will be performed using a novel multi-colour widefield fluorescence microendoscopy platform and a commercially available imaging platform. Cohort 1 will consist of 20 patients scheduled for routine elective diagnostic or surveillance bronchoscopy with a fibroproliferative lung condition and Cohort 2 will consist of 6 patients undergoing planned cardiothoracic surgery for biopsy/resection of lung conditions characterised by excessive activity of the fibroproliferative pathway. For both cohorts, eligibility will be verified by a clinical trial physician after written informed consent has been obtained. For cohort 1, a bronchoscopy with lavage will be performed to harvest broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF). For cohort 2, a sample of resected lung tissue will be analysed. Fibre-based endomicroscopy (FE) will be performed and up to 100μg of FIB ONE and PBS/AZD1236 will be instilled. CT identified regions of architecturally normal lung in all participants will act as internal controls and will be used to compare MMP activity in normal and diseased lung tissue. Participants will be asked to provide routine blood samples before and after FIB ONE and AZD1236 administration. A cardiorespiratory exam and routine observations will be performed 4-6 hours following administration and all participants will be assessed for discharge. All participants will either be contacted by a member of the research team via telephone or ward visit 24 hours (± 4 hours) after dosing to ensure no AEs/SAEs were experienced. The participant's involvement in the study is concluded when the 24 hour assessment has been successfully completed and all AEs/SAEs have been resolved.
