Study to Evaluate Efficacy of LAI When Added to Multi-drug Regimen Compared to Multi-drug Regimen Alone

Summary

A study to evaluate the effectiveness of Liposomal Amikacin for Inhalation (LAI) 590 mg administered once daily (QD) when added to multi-drug regimen (MDR) in participants with Nontuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) lung infection caused by Mycobacterium Avium Complex (MAC) that were refractory to treatment. Participants were randomized 2:1 to LAI 590 mg administered QD + MDR or MDR alone.
