Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess the safety of Depelestat in CF patients with moderate pulmonary disease, particularly regarding the PFT evolution on treatment, compared to placebo.;Secondary Objective: To compare two doses of Depelestat in terms of pharmacodynamic effect, by measuring change in hNE activity in sputum during the treatment period and the post-treatment period by comparison with the pre-treatment period.;Primary end point(s): FEV1 % predicted relative change from baseline to week 8 | — |
