- To evaluate the change in M. abscessus cfu/g in induced sputum samples from baseline to the end of treatment with RESP301 in patients with cystic fibrosis who have treatment-naïve or treatment-refractory M. abscessus-pulmonary disease
- To assess the safety and tolerability of RESP301 during treatment (28 days) and follow up (84 days) in patients with cystic fibrosis who have treatment naïve or treatment refractory M. abscessus-pulmonary disease

Cystic Fibrosis | Drug: RESP301 | Phase 2 |
Investigators will undertake an eighteen-week single centre, open label study in participants with cystic fibrosis infected with Mycobacterium abscessus (M. abscessus)-pulmonary disease (-PD).
The study will treat particpants with cystic fibrosis (CF) attending the Adult Cystic Fibrosis Centre at the Royal Papworth Hospital, Cambridge, United Kingdom. Participants will be consented and screened for the RESP301-003 study to enable approximately 12 participants to commence treatment with RESP301.
Participants will have M abscessus-PD as defined by the ATS/IDSA, specifically: (i) two or more positive sputum cultures for M. abscessus; (ii) radiological change consistent with NTM-PD; and (iii) symptoms consistent with NTM-PD, after exclusion of other causes.
Participants will be recruited who (1) have not commenced antibiotic treatment for M. abscessus-PD or (2) have treatment refractory M. abscessus-PD (defined as remaining sputum culture positive after 6 months or more of treatment). Treatment-refractory participants will be suitable for enrolment in the study if date of first dosing is at least 2 months since a change in M. abscessus treatment (or 4 months since change of Clofazimine).

- Mycobacterial load in induced sputum samples [ Time Frame: Through study completion, average one year ]The primary efficacy endpoint is the change in mycobacterial load in induced sputum samples as assessed by log10 change in M. abscessus cfu/g sputum from Baseline to End of Treatment.
- Safety and tolerability [ Time Frame: Through study completion, average one year ]Safety and tolerability will be assessed by clinical safety laboratory measurements, physical examinations, vital signs, concomitant medications; cumulative incidence of adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) and severe AEs.
- Change in mycobacterial load in spontaneously expectorated daily sputum samples [ Time Frame: Through study completion, average one year ]The change in mycobacterial load in spontaneously expectorated daily sputum samples from Baseline to Final Week of Treatment. For this secondary endpoint, Baseline is defined as the average M. abscessus cfu/g sputum in samples from the mornings of Days -14 to -1 inclusive. The final seven days of treatment are days 22 to 28 inclusive; the sputum samples are produced on the following mornings
- Proportion of individuals achieving a ≥2 log10 decrease in the mycobacterial load - induced samples [ Time Frame: Through study completion, average one year ]Proportion of individuals achieving a ≥2 log10 decrease in the mycobacterial load as assessed by change in M. abscessus cfu/g in the induced sputum samples from Baseline to End of Treatment.
- Proportion of individuals achieving a ≥2 log10 decrease in the mycobacterial load - spontaneous samples [ Time Frame: Through study completion, average one year ]Proportion of individuals achieving a ≥2 log10 decrease in the mycobacterial load as assessed by change in M. abscessus cfu/g in the spontaneously expectorated sputum samples from Baseline to Final Week of Treatment.
