In addition, patients should be instructed to inhale their HS at least 30 minutes before their pulmonary function tests (PFT). Patients should be consistent with the timing of taking their HS at home or clinic, prior to their PFT. • Personal history of abnormal hearing or family history of abnormal hearing other than typical hearing loss associated with the aging process. • Abnormal result from any audiology testing (defined as either a unilateral pure-tone audiometry test showing a threshold elevation > 20 dB at any frequency across the frequency range 0.25 kHz to 8 kHz or the absence of emission at the evoked otoacoustic emission test). • History of sputum culture or throat swab (or BAL) culture yielding Burkholderia cepacia (B. cepacia) within 2 years prior to screening for CTBM100C2303 and/or sputum culture yielding B. cepacia at screening for CTBM100C2303 or at enrollment into this study. • Hemoptysis of more than 60 mL at any time within 30 days prior to study drug administration. • History of malignancy of any organ system (other than localized basal cell carcinoma of the skin), treated or untreated, within the past 5 years, regardless of whether there is evidence of local recurrence or metastases, • Patients with clinically significant laboratory abnormalities (unless expected under the study indication) at the termination of CTBM100C2303 / visit 4, especially if meeting the relevant criteria for premature withdrawal defined under 6.5.8. • Subjects or caregivers with a history of noncompliance to medical regimens and patients or caregivers who are considered potentially unreliable. • Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test (> 5 mIU/mL). • Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, including women whose career, lifestyle, or sexual orientation precludes intercourse with a male partner and women whose partners have been sterilized by vasectomy or other means, UNLESS they are using two birth control methods.
