Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of L608 in Healthy Adults

L608 inhalation Solution (L608) is developed by Pharmosa Biopharm Inc. (PBI) as a new liposomal Iloprost formulation for inhalation use in the treatment of patients with PAH (WHO Group 1). As a liposomal formulation of iloprost, L608 is intended to reduce the dosing frequency, as well as provide sustained and selective release along with achieving therapeutically relevant iloprost level. Meanwhile, L608 is expected to mitigate burst release related local irritation and systemic side effects (e.g., hypotension due to plasma peak) in clinical practice. This Phase I, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study will be conducted in healthy volunteers in Australia to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic of L608. The dose escalation design is applied in this study. The sentinel dosing design will be applied for all cohorts.
