Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of open-label exposure of gNO in patients with NTM lung disease. Subjects will receive the study drug by inhaling through a nasal mask. Subjects will be treated for 3 weeks (5 days per week) and followed monthly for 3 months.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

Subjects are >18 years of age and able to provide informed consent.

Subjects have NTM lung disease as defined by each of the following:

Sputum cultures positive for NTM (MAC or M abscessus) Radiologic studies that demonstrate features consistent with disease such as nodular bronchiectasis and/or cavities Symptoms consistent with disease including respiratory (e.g. cough, sputum production, hemoptysis, chest pain) and constitutional (e.g. fevers, night sweats, fatigue, myalgias, arthralgias, weight loss) Subjects are able to produce sputum for culture (either spontaneous or induced).

Subjects have a history of persistently positive sputum cultures for NTM defined as >4 number of cultures over 24 months with >75% positive AND a positive culture in the last 3 months.

Clinically stable with no significant changes in health status within 14 days prior to Screening or Day 1 Subjects are willing and able to perform requirements of the study.

Exclusion Criteria

Smoking history in the prior 6 months Significant hemoptysis within 30 days prior to screening (>5 ml of blood in one coughing episode or >30 ml of blood in a 24 hour period) Forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1) 1.5 Abnormal liver function defined as any two of the following ALT >3x ULN AST >3x ULN ALP >3x ULN GGT >3x ULN

Abnormal renal function defined as:

Calculated Creatinine Clearance 10 mg/d prednisone equivalent) in the 14 days prior to screening Any condition that the Investigator believes would interfere with the intent of this study or would make participation not in the best interest of the subject.
