Exclusion

  • known history of hypogammaglobulinaemia requiring treatment with immunoglobulin, unless fully replaced and considered immuno-competent by the Investigator;
  • myasthenia gravis or porphyria;
  • severe cardiovascular disease such as severe uncontrolled hypertension, ischaemic heart disease or cardiac arrhythmia and any other conditions that would confound the evaluation of safety, in the opinion of the Investigator;

  • receiving treatment for allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA);
  • massive haemoptysis (greater than or equal to 300 mL or requiring blood transfusion) in the preceding 4 weeks before Screening Visit (Visit 1) or between Visit 1 and Visit 2;
  • respiratory failure that would compromise patient safety or confound the evaluation of safety or efficacy of the study in the opinion of the Investigator;
  • current active malignancy, except for basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin without metastases;
  • taking immunosuppressive medications (such as azathioprine, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, sirolimus, mycophenolate, rituximab), and/or anti cytokine medications (such as anti-IL-6 and anti-tumour alpha necrosis factor products) in the preceding year before the Screening Visit (Visit 1);
  • known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV);
  • current treatment for non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease or tuberculosis;
  • known or suspected to be allergic or unable to tolerate colistimethate sodium (intravenous or inhaled) or other polymixins, including evidence of bronchial hyper-reactivity following inhaled colistimethate sodium;
  • treatment with long term (≥ 30 days) prednisone at a dose of greater than 15 mg a day (or equivalent dose of any other corticosteroid) started within six months of the Screening Visit (Visit 1);
  • new maintenance treatment with any oral macrolides ( (e.g. azithromycin/erythromycin/clarithromycin) within 30 days of the Screening Visit (Visit 1) or started between Visit 1 and Visit 2;

  • pregnant or breast feeding or plan to become pregnant over the next two years or of child- bearing potential and unwilling to use a reliable method of contraception for at least one month before randomisation and throughout their involvement in the trial;
  • significant abnormality in clinical evaluations and/or laboratory tests (physical examination, vital signs, haematology, clinical chemistry, clinically relevant impaired renal function, defined as serum creatinine levels ≥2.0x upper limit of normal, ECG) endangering the safe participation of the patient in the study at the Screening Visit (Visit 1) and during the study;
  • participated in another investigational, interventional trial within 30 days prior to the Screening Visit (Visit 1);
