Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Incidence of Subjects Experiencing Treatment Emergent Adverse Events From Baseline Through End of Study
Number of subjects experiencing at least one treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
Severity of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events From Baseline Through End of Study
Assessment of severity of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Severity is graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Modified for CF (CTCAE v4.03). For events not present in this listing the following grading was applied: Mild: Asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated; Moderate: Minimal, local, or noninvasive intervention indicated; discomfort sufficient to reduce or interfere with daily activities; Severe: Medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization may be indicated; disabling; limits self-care with significant interference with daily activities; incapacitating with inability to perform self care activities of daily living; Life-threatening: Urgent intervention indicated; immediate risk of death.
Incidence of Subjects Experiencing Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLT) in Each Dose Cohort From Baseline Through End of Study Visit.
DLT's were defined as an allergic reaction, acute bronchospasm or acute AEs of interest requiring (immediate) medical intervention.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Number of Subjects With Abnormalities Reported Regarding Laboratory Parameters, Vital Signs, ECG, Spirometry, and Physical Findings.
Number of subjects experiencing at least one abnormality for the categories laboratory parameters, vital signs, ECG, spirometry and physical findings that were reported as treatment emergent adverse event with a relationship to study drug as either possibly, probably or definitely.
Maximum Serum Concentration
Cmax: QR-010 maximum serum concentrations
Time to Maximum Serum Concentration
Tmax: Time to Cmax of QR-010 serum concentrations.
Terminal Half-life (T1/2)
The terminal elimination half-life will be estimated by non-linear regression analysis of the terminal elimination slope
Area Under the Curve to Final Sample [AUC(0-last)]
Area under the curve to the final sample with a concentration greater than lower limit of quantification (LLQ) will be calculated using the linear trapezoidal method
Area Under the Curve to Infinity [AUC(0-∞)]
AUC0-∞: Area under the curve to infinity will be calculated based on the last observed concentration Clast(obs) using formula: AUC0-∞=AUClast+Clast(obs)/λz
Serum Clearance (CL)
CL: Serum clearance will be estimated using the formula: CL = Dose/AUC0-∞.
