Brief summary

The primary objective of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of BI 1265162 in healthy male subjects following inhalative administration of multiple rising doses. Secondary objectives is the exploration of the pharmacokinetics (PK) including dose proportionality and time dependency of BI 1265162 after multiple dosing

Recruitment details

This Multiple rising dose (MRD) trial was designed as double-blind, randomised, and placebo-controlled within parallel dose groups.

Pre-assignment details

All participants were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Participants attended a specialist site which would then ensure that all participants met all inclusion/exclusion criteria. Participants were not to be randomized to trial treatment if any one of the specific entry criteria were not met.
