Full title

Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of 2 Treatment Regimens of Aztreonam in Pediatric Subjects with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and New Onset Respiratory Tract Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) Infection/Colonization

Study details

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a 14-day course versus a 28-day course of aztreonam for inhalation solution (AZLI) in participants with new onset Pseudomonas aeruginosa respiratory tract infection.


Study results

APLINE2 study published results in 2024.

149 children and teenagers took part. They were randomly chosen to receive either a 14-day or 28-day course of inhaled AZLI. All participants were monitored for 108 weeks (approximately 24 months) after treatment. 

The study did not find that the shorter 14-day course was better or as effective as the longer 28-day course. However, as the shorter course was well tolerated and no new safety concerns were found, this study supports further studies looking at shorter courses of treatment for this age group.
