Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Plasma tobramycin pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax and AUC0-t) after twice daily inhalation of Bramitob® using PARI eFlow® nebulizer vs PARI LC® PLUS nebulizer [on day 28]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Plasma tobramycin pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, tmax and AUC0-t) after inhalation of Bramitob® using PARI eFlow® nebulizer vs PARI LC® PLUS nebulizer [on day 1]
- Sputum tobramycin pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, tmax and AUC0-t) after inhalation of Bramitob® using PARI eFlow® nebulizer vs PARI LC® PLUS nebulizer [on day 1 and on day 28]
- Accumulation of tobramycin in plasma and sputum after repeated doses calculated as the ratio: AUC0-t DAY 28 / AUC0-t DAY 1 and Cmax DAY 28 / Cmax DAY 1 [day 1 - day 28]
- Safety assessed by adverse events, adverse drug reactions, incidence of bronchospasm, laboratory parameters, physical examination, body weight, vital signs results [day1-day28]
- Number of patients with minimum plasma tobramycin levels Cmin > 2mcg/mL and maximum plasma tobramycin levels Cmax > 12 mcg/mL [on day 28]
- Time necessary for the nebulization of the dose [on day 1 and on day 28]
