Study summary

The main goal of this pharmacokinetic study in healthy volunteers is to evaluate the potential effect of cyclosporine (probe inhibitor of P glycoprotein [P-gp] and breast cancer resistance protein [BCRP] transporters) on CHF6001 (Tanimilast) systemic exposure following single dose administration, by comparing the area under the curve (AUC) from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration (AUC0 t) and the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of CHF6001 with and without cyclosporine. Participants will receive CHF6001 alone in Treatment Period 1, then CHF6001 after oral cyclosporine in Treatment Period 2, in order to evaluate the cyclosporine drug interaction on CHF6001 systemic exposure. The two treatment periods will be separated by a wash out period of 14 to 17 days.

  5. Non- or ex smokers who smoked \<5 pack years;
  6. Good physical and mental status determined based on the medical history and a general clinical examination, at the Screening Visit and prior to the first dosing;
  7. Vital signs within normal limits at the Screening Visit;
  8. A 12-lead digitalised electrocardiogram (12-lead ECG) in triplicate considered as normal at the Screening Visit;)
  9. Pulmonary function test within normal limits at the Screening Visit;
  10. Males fulfilling one of the following criteria:

    1. Males with pregnant or non-pregnant women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) partners: They must be willing to use male condom from the signature of the informed consent and until the Follow up Call; or
    2. Non fertile male subjects: Contraception is not required in this case; or
    3. Males with women of non childbearing potential (WONCBP) partners: Contraception is not required in this case;
  11. Females fulfilling one of the following criteria:

    1. WONCBP defined as physiologically incapable of becoming pregnant. Tubal ligation or partial surgical interventions are not acceptable. If indicated, as per Investigator's request, post menopausal status may be confirmed by follicle stimulating hormone levels;
