Efficacy and Safety of Inhaled Molgramostim (rhGM-CSF) in Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis

The trial is a phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicentre clinical trial investigating efficacy and safety of inhaled molgramostim (rhGM-CSF) in patients with aPAP. The trial will include 2 periods; a double-blind treatment period consisting of up to 8 trial visits (Screening, Baseline, and at Weeks 4, 8,12, 16, 20 and 24 after randomisation) and a open-label follow-up period consisting of up to 5 trial visits (at Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36 and 48 post-treatment). In the double-blind treatment period, eligible subjects will be randomised to treatment for up to 24 weeks with either: 1) inhaled molgramostim (300 µg) once daily (MOL-OD), 2) inhaled molgramostim (300 µg) and matching placebo administered intermittently (7 days on and 7 days off) (MOL-INT) or 3) inhaled placebo once daily (PBO). During the follow-up period, all participants will receive inhaled molgramostim intermittently (7 days on, 7 days off). During the trial, whole lung lavage (WLL) may be applied as rescue therapy in case of significant clinical worsening.
