Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Cohort One
Tobramycin (TOBI dry powder) - dry powder capsules
112mg twice daily for 4 weeks
Calcium disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate (dry powder capsules - which are inserted into a mododose inhaler which pierces the capsule so it can be inhaled)
Week 1 - 37.5mg twice daily
Week 2 - 75mg twice daily
Week 3 - 75mg twice daily
Week 4 - 150mg twice daily

Cohort Two
Tobramycin (TOBI dry powder)
112mg twice daily for 4 weeks
Calcium disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate (dry powder capsules)
Week 1 - 37.5mg twice daily
Week 2 - 75mg twice daily
Week 3 - 75mg twice daily
Week 4 - 75mg four times a day

Cohort Three
Tobramycin (TOBI dry powder)
112mg twice daily for 4 weeks
Calcium disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate (dry powder capsules)
Week 1 - 37.5mg twice daily
Week 2 - 75mg twice daily
Week 3 - 75mg twice daily
Week 4 - 150mg twice daily

Cohort Four
Tobramycin (TOBI dry powder)
112mg twice daily for 4 weeks

Cohort One, Two and Three will use participant diary for drug adherence. All used and unused CaEDTA dry powder capsules will be returned to site by participant at every visit and will be counted for drug adherence. Site staff will be going through tobramycin adherence with the participant at every visit and noting down any missed doses.
Intervention code [1] 312649 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
Cohort 4 (control group) takes TOBI dry powder without added CaEDTA for duration of study.
Control group
Active

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 307773 0
Acute tolerability will be measured by FEV1 changes pre-and post-dose. This will be calculated using Easy One portable spirometer.
Timepoint [1] 307773 0
Pre dose FEV1 at Day 1, 8, 15, 22, 29
5 minute post dose FEV1 Day 1, 8, 15, 22, 29
2 and 4 hour post dose FEV1 at Day 1 and Day 29

All time points will be used to calculate tolerability

Primary outcome [2] 307774 0
Safety - blood tests include kidney and liver function (creatinine, ALT, GGT), iron- related markers (ferritin, iron, transferrin and transferrin saturation), as well as haemoglobin, blood urea nitrogen, calcium and magnesium
Timepoint [2] 307774 0
Pre dose at Day 1, 15, 29
20 minutes, 2 and 4 hour post dose Day 1, 29

All time points will be used to calculate safety
Primary outcome [3] 307775 0
Safety - Adverse events, respiratory symptoms

Any changes in health - if participant had headache, increased cough, stomach cramps etc. will be collected from participant throughout the study. They will have a hand out to take home to fill in time and dates of heath events, plus coordinator will go through any changes in health at every visit.

Coordinator will ask participant at every visit whether they have had a change in respiratory symptoms i.e. - increased cough, increased sputum production, shortness of breath, wheezing etc.
Timepoint [3] 307775 0
Day 1 through to Day 57
Secondary outcome [1] 352835 0
Blood concentration of ethylenediamine tetraacetate (EDTA) in blood samples (millimolar, mM)
Timepoint [1] 352835 0
Blood samples will be collected pre-dose, and at ½ hour, 2 hours, and 4 hours post-dose at designated visits to assess serum CaEDTA levels at Day 1 and Day 29. A baseline CaEDTA levels will also be taken after the washout period at Day 57.The 30 minutes post-dose sample will represent the peak serum level - as is usually the case with most inhaled drugs. The clearance characteristics and serum half-life of CaEDTA are well known (serum half- life ~20 minutes and maximally up to 60 minutes).
Secondary outcome [2] 352882 0
Sputum concentration of ethylenediamine tetraacetate (EDTA) in sputum samples (millimolar, mM)
Timepoint [2] 352882 0
- pre-dose and ½-hour post-dose at enrolment Day 1 and at Day 29 to assess trough and peak levels at the different doses,
- 2 hours, 4 hours post-dose at visits Day 1 and Day 29 to assess clearance and area-under-the-curve (AUC) levels,
- single collection at the end of safety phase Day 57 for total clearance levels or evidence of accumulation.
Secondary outcome [3] 352883 0
Urine concentration of ethylenediamine tetraacetate (EDTA) in urine samples (millimolar, mM)
Timepoint [3] 352883 0
pre-dosing at Day 1 and Day 57 visits
