MannKind Co.

MannKind reports positive topline results from the randomized, double‑blind phase‑1b study INFLO‑1 of inhaled nintedanib as a dry powder in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The 27‑patient study showed no serious adverse events, no drug‑related gastrointestinal side effects, no bronchospasms and no discontinuations or dose reductions; cough was mostly mild and transient. Overall, IPF patients received about 450 inhalations; combined with phase‑1a, 48 people were treated, 18 of them with IPF. The global phase‑2 study INFLO‑2 to further evaluate nintedanib DPI is currently recruiting and is expected to enroll around 210 participants. » Mere på de.investing.com
