Rationale 
Nitric Oxide (NO) is a potent antimicrobial produced naturally in 
the human body and is a key component of our defence against 
microbial infection in the lung. Gaseous NO is an approved product 
for treatment of pulmonary hypertension in neonates and has 
already been delivered as a potential pulmonary vasodilator in 
COPD. RESP301 readily produces NO and has distinct advantages 
over gaseous NO by delivering a more targeted and localised 
delivery. RESP301 is a formulation consisting of 3 agents already 
used in clinical practice: mannitol, sodium nitrite and citric acid. 
RESP301 is administered as nebulised fine particle droplets via a 
handheld nebuliser. In vitro, RESP301 has been shown to be highly 
effective against a range of respiratory viruses, including SARS-
CoV-2 and influenza strains, and multiple types of bacteria. 
RESP301 is currently being used as treatment for hospitalised 
COVID-19 patients in an ongoing randomised controlled trial. 
Community patients with pre-existing respiratory disease are at 
higher risk of adverse outcomes such as hospitalisation and/or 
death due to exacerbations caused by SARS-CoV-2 or other 
respiratory infections. This study will first determine the maximum 
tolerated dose of RESP301 in patients with COPD or 
bronchiectasis, and will then assess the feasibility of recruiting and 
retaining these patients and treating them with RESP301 in the 
community at onset of viral infection symptoms. Additionally, we 
will collect safety, tolerability and disease symptom data. 
Objectives 
Primary objectives: 

Thirty Respiratory Limited 
Clinical Study Protocol 
RESP301-005 
CONFIDENTIAL 
 
V.5.0 18NOV21 
 
Page  11 of 86 
• To determine the maximum tolerable dose (MTD) and 
recommended therapeutic dose (RTD) of single agent 
RESP301 in patients with mild to moderate COPD or 
bronchiectasis 
• To assess the feasibility of administering RESP301 safely at 
the MTD with the co-administration of a short acting 
bronchodilator 
• To assess the feasibility of recruiting and retaining patients 
with COPD or bronchiectasis who have viral infection 
symptoms and treating these patients with RESP301 in a 
community setting. 
Secondary objectives: 
The following secondary objectives will be considered for the 
cohort as a whole, and in addition for a sub-cohort of those who 
have confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection: 
• To assess the safety and tolerability of single doses of 
RESP301 in patients with COPD or bronchiectasis, who are at 
high risk of SARS-CoV-2 and other acute respiratory 
pathogens. 
• To assess the safety and tolerability of RESP301 and a pre-
dose short acting bronchodilator (two inhalations of Ventolin 
)  in patients with COPD or bronchiectasis. 
• To collect preliminary data on the efficacy of RESP301 in 
treating exacerbations in patients with COPD or 
bronchiectasis. 
Intervention/treatment 
RESP301 is delivered by vibrating mesh nebuliser at least 4 hours 
apart. Each dose of RESP301 is an admixture of 
sodium 
nitrite, 
 mannitol and 
 citric acid, buffered at pH 
  
 
Part 1(a): Dose Finding Phase 
The MTD of RESP301 will be determined in order to obtain the 
RTD for the Expansion Phase. 
 
Part 1(b): Concomitant Medication Expansion Phase 
Up to 8 patients with COPD  or bronchiectasis will be enrolled 
into a cohort to receive a short acting inhaled broncholdilator 
through a spacer device 10 minutes before receiving a single test 
dose of RESP301 at the MTD

CONFIDENTIAL 
 
V.5.0 18NOV21 
 
Page  12 of 86 
Part 2: Expansion Phase  
A test dose of RESP301 at RTD will be administered during the 
baseline visit under clinical supervision in a minimum of 50 
patients. Patients who tolerate the test dose will progress to the 
Dormant Period to which a further 100 participants will also be 
recruited with or without a test dose (depending on review of 
safety data after the first 50 patients). Participants in the 
Dormant Period will inform the clinical team if symptoms develop 
indicative of a possible respiratory infection (exacerbation) and 
will then progress to the Treatment Period, in which eligible 
participants receive RESP301 by courier or at a subsequent clinic 
visit for treatment by self-administration at home. During the 
Treatment Period, RESP301 is taken at the RTD three times a day 
at least 4 hours apart for 7 days alongside normal Standard of 
Care (SOC) (treatment period may extend into Day 8 depending 
on time of commencing on Day 1). During the Treatment Period 
participants may use rescue medication as required. 
 
 
Comparator 
Not applicable 
Study design 
This is a single arm, non-randomised, open-label study.  
Part 1(a): Dose Finding Phase 
Up to 48 eligible participants will be administered single ascending 
doses of RESP301 under clinical supervision to determine the MTD, 
according to the following schedule: 
• 8 participants to receive RESP301 at a dose of 1 ml  
• 8 participants to receive RESP301 at a dose of 2 ml 
• 8 participants to receive RESP301 at a dose of 3 ml 
• 8 participants to receive RESP301 at a dose of 4 ml 
• 8 participants to receive RESP301 at a dose of 5 ml 
• 8 participants to receive RESP301 at a dose of 6 ml 
Safety data will be reviewed by the PIs and Sponsor after each dose 
before proceeding to the next higher dose. 
Safety data will include: 
• Treatment-related Adverses Events including troublesome 
cough, chest pain or tightness, bronchospasm or dyspnoea 
the patients finds intolerable 
• Changes in FEV1  
• Changes in methaemoglobin level

V.5.0 18NOV21 
 
Page  13 of 86 
Provided that individual stopping criteria are not met in ≥ three 
participants, and there are no serious adverse events that are at 
least possibly related to RESP301, the next dose cohort can be 
enrolled. 
Subjects can 
be 
enrolled into 
more 
than 
one 
dose cohort provided they did not meet individual stopping 
criteria from any  given prior dose. 
A Safety Advisory Committee will review the data from the 8 
participants in Part 1(a) and determine a Maximum Tolerated 
Dose(MTD) and Recommended Therapeutic Dose (RTD). 
 
Part 1(b): Concomitant Medication Expansion Phase 
Up to 8 eligible participants will be administered a single dose of 
RESP301 at the MTD under clinical supervision to assess the effect 
(if any) of a short acting bronchodilator upon symptomatic or 
asymptomatic 
bronchial 
hyper-reactivity 
associated 
with 
nebulised RESP301.  Administration will be according to the 
following schedule: 
• 8 participants to receive RESP301 at the determined MTD after 
pre-dosing with a short acting inhaled bronchodilator (2 
inhalations of Ventolin - 
 per inhalation) through a 
spacer device  10 minutes before administration of RESP301.  
 
Once the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) has been determined 
in Part 1(a), a cohort of 8 patients who are not experiencing an 
exacerbation will be recruited and RESP301 administered at the 
MTD but will in addition receive a single dose of a short acting 
bronchodilator (2 inhalations of Ventolin - 
 per inhalation) 
through a spacer device 10 minutes preceding administration of 
RESP301. The following parameters will be measured: 
• Assess response to RESP301 (incl. recording any AEs, FEV1 
pre- and post dose and monitoring up to 1 hour post dose).  
Part 1 (b) will be conducted after an MTD and RTD have been 
determined in Part 1(a) but will not delay initiation of Part 2. A 
Safety Advisory Committee will review the data from the 8 
participants in Part 1(b). Participants from cohorts 1(a) and 1(b)  
may also enter the Dormant and Treatment Phase of the study, as 
long as they meet eligibility criteria.

Part 2: Expansion Phase 
Once the Recommended Therapeutic Dose has been determined 
in Part 1 (a), a minimum of 150 patients will be enrolled in to the 
Expansion Phase, which is split into 3 periods. For participants 
taking part in the Dose Finding Phase (Part 1), eligibility criteria will 
be reassessed prior to entering Part 2 of the trial. 
1) Baseline visit 
In a minimum of 50 participants the following will be performed: 
• Administration of a test dose of RESP301, at the RTD 
• Assesses response to RESP301 (incl. recording any AEs, 
FEV1 pre- and post dose and monitoring methaemoglobin 
levels pre-, during and post- administration, using fingertip 
sensor; methaemoglobin level should be <=2% before, 
<=5% during, and <=3% at 30-60 mins post dose (i.e. if still 
>3% at 30 mins, check again at 60mins post dose). 
During the visit participants who satisfactorily tolerate the test 
dose will then be enrolled into the “dormant period” of the study 
for 12 months.  
An independent Data Monitoring Committee will review the data 
from the 50 participants that received the RTD. Based on the data 
from these participants, it will be decided whether test doses 
should be administered to further participants before enrolling 
them into the Dormant Period. 
2) Dormant Period 
Dormant period patients are requested at the baseline visit, and 
monthly follow-up calls, to inform the study team if they develop 
exacerbation symptoms indicative of a respiratory infection. There 
will be no other study procedures or data collection during the 
“dormant study phase” unless the participant experiences 
exacerbation symptoms. 
3) Treatment Period 
A patient who experiences exacerbation symptoms for at least 24 
hours should contact the study team as soon as practicable to 
allow a study interaction to be undertaken remotely (via video link, 
if possible), within 72 hours of onset of at least one of the 
following: fever (>38.0°C), systemic malaise, increased cough or 
wheeze, increased  sputum volume or increased purulence. During 
the remote visit the patient’s symptoms will be discussed and if

Page  15 of 86 
the patient is willing to continue in the study, they will have a rapid 
delivery of a study pack containing study IMP and nebuliser and 
other equipment for the trial. 
Note that if COVID-19 is suspected, the patient will be advised to 
follow the prevailing NHS guidance on testing for COVID-19 taking 
into account any specific recommendations for patients with 
COPD or bronchiectasis.  Where serial SARS-CoV-2 swabs are 
undertaken, data will be collected for analysis. 
During the treatment period, lasting 7 days, at home/ community 
setting, patients will be asked to: 
• Administer RESP301 three times daily at the RTD 
• Take daily temperature measurements 
• Complete a daily diary to record treatment doses  
• Attend a daily call with study coordinator to check 
compliance, assist with issues with product, and report any 
AEs and changes to medications or medical history, 
including COVID-19 test results, if available 
Each participant will receive a maximum of one course of 
treatment of RESP301 during the study. Remote follow up visit will 
be carried out approximately 14 and 28 days following end of 
treatment to record any AEs and changes to medications or 
medical history, including COVID-19 test results, if available. 
Additionally, participants whose symptoms had not returned to 
baseline by the end of treatment period, will be followed up with 
a phone call 2 weeks post end of treatment.  
Endpoints 
Primary endpoint:

3 Introduction 
3.1 Background 
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and bronchiectasis are chronic lung conditions 
mainly affecting middle-aged or older adults. A Global Burden of Disease report in 2020 
estimates COPD as being the 6th largest cause of wordwide disease burden (and the 3rd largest 
for those 75 years and older)(GBD 2019 Diseases and Injuries Collaborators, 2020). 
Bronchiectasis is less common but around 1,000 people die each year from the disease in 
England and Wales (Roberts and Hubbard, 2010).  
COPD is characterised by chronic obstruction of lung airflow that interferes with normal 
breathing and is not fully reversible. COPD patients are prone to worsening of symptoms and 
lung function due to infection; these episodes are known as exacerbations.  The frequency of 
exacerbations tends to increase in line with the severity of the undelying COPD.  Furthermore, 
exacerbations contribute to the progression of the condition, being associated with a rapid 
decline in lung function and increased mortality. 
One in eight emergency admissions in the UK is due to a COPD exacerbation, making it the 
second most common cause; 31% of patients were re-admitted to hospital within 30 days 
(British Thoracic Society, 2012; Devon LPC and Mediapharm, 2014). Exacerbations of COPD 
patients are most often caused by respiratory viruses, which tend to lead to more severe 
symptoms and hospitalisation; other triggers are bacterial infections, air pollutants and ambient 
temperature.   
The occurrence of COPD exacerbations is linked to the stage of the disease, as seen in the 
ECLIPSE study in which the exacerbation rates were 0.85 per person for patients with 
moderate disease (GOLD stage 2) and 2.00 for those with very severe disease (GOLD stage 4; 
Hurst et al, 2010). Other factors for exacerbations were seasonal effects or inhalation of 
harmful substances, and epidemic peaks in exacerbations of COPD were noted in the autumn 
and winter months (Johnston & Sears, 2006). As with COPD, infections can also cause severe 
symptoms in patients with bronchiectasis who are particularly vulnerable to recurrent acute 
chest infections (Chalmers et al, 2018).  
Of particular concern at the present time is the appearance of a new and potent coronavirus 
which has caused the global COVID-19 pandemic. The appearance of this deadly virus is of 
major concern for those patients with underlying lung conditions. Viral-detected exacerbations 
showed a larger decline in lung function and longer recovery time than non-viral exacerbations 
(Seemungal et al, 2001; Bafadhel et al, 2011). A critical factor is the tendency of viral 
infections to provoke secondary bacterial infections. Viral and sequential bacterial infections 
may be associated with severe respiratory symptoms (van der Molen et al, 2003

Life Outcomes. 2003; 28:1–13. 
Wilkinson et al, 2006; Harper et al, 2009; Mallia et al, 2012). 
A critical early component of innate host defence in the airway is the ability of respiratory 
epithelial cells to produce high levels of NO (Kao et al, 2001). NO functions as a signaling 
molecule in initiation of the inflammatory response to viruses, and also has direct antiviral 
effects (Folkerts et al, 1998). The airway epithelium has highly efficient nitric oxide (NO) 
synthetic machinery which is amplified in viral infection. Healthy human airway epithelium 
has abundant expression of the endothelial enzyme NOS II due to continuous transcriptional 
activation of the gene in vivo. Loss of NO synthesis in lung diseases predisposes individuals 
to increased virus/microbe infection (Xu et al, 2006). 
The physiological roles of NO and the enzymatic pathways for its synthesis via NO synthase 
have been clearly established for many years (Tucker et al, 2007). In particular, NO has been 
demonstrated to have potent anti-microbial properties against a wide range of pathogens. An 
alternative non-enzymatic synthetic pathway for NO synthesis has been developed, which 
generates NO and related higher oxides of nitrogen (NOx) via the chemical reactions of 
acidified nitrite (Hardwick et al, 2001, Tucker et al, 1999). A solution of co-mixed NO/NOx 
and ascorbic acid (RespiNOS), delivered by nebuliser, was found to be safe and well tolerated 
in healthy volunteers (Tucker et al, 2007). Spectral investigations further confirmed that there 
were no potentially harmful moieties present in the solution. The study concluded that 
RespiNOS had potential for use as a broad-spectrum anti-microbial agent in patients with 
chronic bronchial sepsis such as bronchiectasis, COPD, and cystic fibrosis. 
Thirty Respiratory Limited has developed a NO-generating liquid designed to release NO in 
situ in the upper airways and deep in the alveolar spaces (RESP301). RESP301 is an admixture 
solution of two precursor solutions mixed together at point of care for immediate inhaled 
administration via a CE-marked handheld nebuliser and has specific advantages 
 
over inhaled NO gas in treating a range of respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 in 
laboratory testing. RESP301 has also demonstrated potent activity against various influenza 
virus strains, rhinovirus and coronavirus. It has also shown high in vitro activity against 
respiratory pathogens, both viral and bacterial. 
Key advantages of RESP301 over inhaled NO gas are: 
• 
RESP301 demonstrates powerful evidence in vitro as a broad-spectrum 
anti-microbial; 
• 
Treatment is quick, easy and portable using a standard handheld nebuliser;

• 
The formulation is nebulised and forms a fine particle mist that settles on the lung 
surface, at the point of infection, and is therefore a more targeted approach; 
• 
NO production continues in-situ post treatment; 
• 
Because of the design of the formulation, production of NO2 is negligible by virtue 
of the NO2 being rapidly converted to a NO donor species. 
The novel concept for RESP301 is that it will restore the levels of NO in the lungs with a dual 
action of both killing virus and bacteria and boosting the host response against these pathogenic 
microbes.  
RESP301 delivers NO in a specifically focused way and with a unique mode of action. It is an 
important evolutionary step in delivering NO that is more physiological and overcomes the 
technical difficulties and efficacy limitations of current NO gas therapy. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 RESP301 has at least 3 distinct mechanisms of action in fighting 
virus infection 
 two of which are common to many viruses and one is very specific 
to coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV-2:  
• 
First it has a direct kill effect on the virus in the extracellular space. Nitric oxide-mediated 
nitrosylation of viral and host macromolecules appears to block viral replication and this 
has been demonstrated for several viruses (Saura et al, 1999; Basu et al, 1999). Enzymes, 
such as proteases (reverse transcriptases, and ribonucleotide reductase) which are vital 
for the life-cycle of the virus, are targets for nitric oxide nitrosylation (Benz et al, 2002; 
Chalmers et al, 2018 
• 
Chalmers JD, Chang AB, Chotirmall SH, Dhar R, McShane PJ. Bronchiectasis. Nat Rev 
Dis Primers. 2018; 4:45. 
• 
Colasanti et al, 1999). 
• 
Second, in coronaviruses, like SARS-CoV-2, it specifically prevents membrane fusion 
of the S-protein (the spike protein that gives the virus its characteristic crown-like 
appearance) to the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor on the host cell.  
• 
A third mechanism of action attacks the virus indirectly. Since viruses are non-living 
entities and do not have their own metabolism, they hijack the host cell’s metabolic 
processes, and derive their energy and specific cellular substrates from the host cell.

The proposed clinical trial will be an open-label, multicentre, feasibility study of an inhaled 
nitric oxide generating solution (RESP 301) in participants with COPD or bronchiectasis who 
are at risk of Respiratory Viral Infections, including SARS-CoV-2. 
 
Patients in the community with pre-existing respiratory disease are at a higher risk of adverse 
outcomes such as hospitalisation and/or death due to exacerbations caused by SARS-CoV-2 or 
other respiratory infections. This study will assess the safety, tolerability and feasibility of 
recruiting and retaining these patients and treating them with RESP 301 in the community at 
onset of viral symptoms.

3.2.2 Benefit assessment 
Patients with an underlying respiratory illness (e.g. COPD, bronchiectasis) are at higher risk of 
adverse outcomes due to exacerbations caused by SARS-CoV-2 or other respiratory infections. 
To date, no treatment of COVID-19 has demonstrated clinical efficacy. Patients and their 
physicians are critically in need of treatments that decrease the risk of severe levels of disease, 
particularly the rate of intubation or other ventilatory support as they significantly lead to fatal 
outcomes. Considering the current pandemic, even a limited improvement in the rate of 
progression to severe stage of the disease would provide sizable benefits for patients and 
society.

3.2.3 Overall Benefit: Risk Conclusion 
Taking into account the measures taken to minimise risk to participants in this study, the 
potential risks identified in association with RESP301 are justified by the anticipated benefits 
that may be afforded to participants at high risk of adverse outcomes due to exacerbations 
caused by SARS-CoV-2 or other respiratory infections.

5 Study design 
5.1 Overall design 
This is an open-label, single arm, multicentre study to investigate the feasibility, safety and 
tolerability of RESP301 in patients with pre-existing respiratory disease who are at higher risk 
of adverse outcomes such as hospitalisation and/or death due to exacerbations caused by 
SARS-CoV-2 or other respiratory infections. The study is conducted in a clinical setting in Part 
1 
 Part 2 of the study will assess the 
feasibility of recruiting and retaining these patients in a community setting 
 
 
 
Part 1(a): Dose Finding Phase 
In Part 1(a), 
 subjects with COPD will be enrolled in separate cohorts to receive a 
single dose of 
 or 
of RESP301. Each cohort will comprise 
 
subjects. This part of the study will consist of one visit in which subjects receive a single dose 
of RESP301 in the clinic on Day 1, with a follow up safety phone call being conducted on the 
morning of Day 2 to check for any adverse events. Enrollment to these cohorts will be 
sequential and subsequent cohorts will only be enrolled after safety review of the previous 
cohort. The safety reviews will be conducted by the safety advisory committee (SAC), 
comprising the site Principal Investigators (or delegates) and the Sponsor’s Executive Medical 
Officer as a minimum.

Subjects can receive more than one dose level as long as they did not meet individual stopping 
criteria from any given prior dose. 
Part 1(b): Concomitant Medication Expansion Phase 
In part 1(b) up to 
patients with COPD or bronchiectasis will be enrolled into a cohort to 
receive a short-acting inhaled broncholdilator (2 inhalations of Ventolin - 
 per 
inhalation) through a spacer device 10 minutes before receiving a single dose of RESP301 at 
the MTD determined in part 1(a). Subjects will continue Standard of Care medication prior to 
receiving RESP301 apart from their usual short acting bronchodilators which will be withheld 
for 
 before dosing with RESP301. Pre-dose short acting bronchodilator will then be 
administered in clinic. 
Subjects from Part 1a may also enter Part 1b (if deemed eligibile). 
This part of the study will operate under the same oversight, monitoring and follow up criteria 
as Part 1(a) 
Part 2: Expansion Phase 
Baseline Visit 
Once the RTD has been established in Part 1, 
 
 
• 
 
 
 
 
 
 
During the visit participants who satisfactorily tolerate the test dose will be enrolled into the 
“dormant period”.  
All patients including those receiving the test dose will undergo the following procedures  
• Informed consent 
• Inclusion and exclusion criteria 
• Any medical assessments (e.g. heart or lung examination) which in the PI’s opinion are 
required to assess whether the patient is suitable for the trial 
• Demographic information 
• Medical history and concurrent medications 
• Height and weight 
• Vital signs 
• Pulmonary function tests (FEV1, FVC and % predicted), if required

V.5.0 18NOV21 
 
Page  33 of 86 
Subjects that participate in Part 1 and do not meet any of the individual stopping criteria can 
enrol in Part 2. Eligibility criteria will be reassessed prior to entering Part 2 of the trial. 
Participants who have not satisfied inclusion/exclusion criteria will be excluded from 
continuing in the study.  
 
An independent Data Monitoring Committee will review the data from the 
 participants that 
received RTD. Based on the data from these participants, it will be decided whether test doses 
should be administered to further participants for the remaining duration of the study. 
 
Dormant period 
 
A minimum of 
 patients will be enrolled into the dormant period and it is expected that 
approximately 
 patients will go on to receive treatment in the treatment period of the trial. 
The duration of the dormant period is from Day 1 of Part 2 of the trial, until the first 
exacerbation or end of study at week 52. During this period, monthly calls will be conducted. 
 
Treatment period 
 
A patient entered into the dormant period who experiences exacerbation symptoms for at least 
 will be eligible to enter the Treatment period. Patients will be instructed to contact 
the study team as soon as practicable to allow a study interaction to be undertaken remotely 
(via video link, if possible), within 
 of onset of at least one of the following:  
• Fever (>38.0°C),  
• Systemic malaise,  
• Increased cough or wheeze,  
• Increased  sputum volume or increased purulence.  
During the remote visit the patient’s symptoms will be discussed and if the patient is willing to 
continue in the study,
 
 
 
Note that if COVID-19 is suspected, the patient will be advised to follow the prevailing NHS 
guidance on testing for COVID-19 taking into account any specific recommendations for 
patients with COPD or bronchiectasis.  Where serial SARS-CoV-2 swabs are undertaken, data 
will be collected for analysis. 
During the treatment period, 
, at home/ community setting, patients will be asked 
to: 
• Administer RESP301 
 at the dose determined in Part 1 of the study 
(RTD). 
• Take daily temperature measurements 
• Complete a daily diary to record treatment doses

6.1 Study Rationale 
This is a single arm, non-randomised, multicentre, open-label study to determine 
 
 
 
 
.  
Considering 
the current public 
health emergency resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, a Phase 2 study of RESP301 is 
considered reasonable in order to generate efficacy data in patients at risk of adverse outcomes 
such as hospitalisation and/or death due to exacerbations caused by SARS-CoV-2 or other 
respiratory infections.

7.2.2 
Storage and Accountability of Study Intervention at site 
The Investigator or designee must document whether appropriate temperature conditions 
have been maintained during storage for all study intervention received and any 
discrepancies are reported and resolved before use of the study intervention. 
 
 
 
 
 
Only participants enrolled in the study may receive study intervention and only authorised site 
staff may supply or administer the test dose at site. All RESP301 kept at site(s) must be stored 
in a secure, environmentally controlled, and monitored (manual or automated) area in 
accordance with the labeled storage conditions with access limited to the Investigator and 
authorised site staff. 
The investigator, institution, or the head of the medical institution (where applicable) is 
responsible for study intervention accountability, reconciliation, and record maintenance (e.g., 
receipt, reconciliation, and final disposition records) for RESP301 stored at site. 
Further guidance and information for the final disposition of unused study intervention are 
provided in the Investigator Manual.

Immediate safety concerns should be discussed with the Sponsor immediately upon occurrence 
or awareness to determine if the participant should continue or discontinue study intervention. 
Adherence to the study design requirements, including those specified in the SoA, is essential 
and required for study conduct. 
All screening evaluations must be completed and reviewed to confirm that potential 
participants meet all eligibility criteria. The Investigator will maintain a screening log to record 
details of all participants screened and to confirm eligibility or record reasons for screening 
failure, as applicable. 
Procedures conducted as part of the participant’s routine clinical management (e.g., blood 
count) and obtained before signing of the ICF may be utilised for screening or baseline 
purposes provided the procedures met the protocol-specified criteria and were performed 
within the time frame defined in the SoA (Table 8-1). 
8.1 Screening Visits (Part 1 and Part 2) 
 
 
 
8.1.1 Informed Consent 
Informed consent must be documented according to Section 11.2. 
8.1.2 Eligibility Criteria 
All inclusion and exclusion criteria will be reviewed by the Investigator or designee to ensure 
that the participant qualifies for the study. 
8.1.3 Demographics 
Age, gender and ethnicity should be recorded in the eCRF. 
8.1.4 Medical history and medications 
A medical history will be obtained by the Investigator or qualified designee. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Investigator or qualified designee will review prior medication use and record prior 
medications taken by the participant within 3 months prior to screening.

Page  59 of 86 
Smoking status and history should also be recorded in the eCRF. 
8.1.5 Examinations and tests 
Physical examinations 
Height and weight should be measured and recorded in the eCRF, along with BMI. 
 
 
 
  For all participants in 
Part 1 and for the minimum of first 50 participants in Part 2, spirometry will be perfomed to 
 For all participants 
thereafter, these will be measured only if the Data Monitoring Committee recommends that 
post test dose assessments should be continued.  
 
 
 
  
No other physical examinations are required for the study. However, the Principal Investigators 
should use their clinical judgement to assess the patients’ suitability for the trial, and as part of 
this assessment, may decide to perform some physical examinations. Any abnormal physical 
examination findings should be recorded in the eCRF and medical records. 
Vital signs 
Vital signs to be collected include 
 
 signs should be taken while the patient is supine. 
 
 
  
 
  
Methaemoglobin level 
As part of eligibility screening, methaemoglobin level will be measured using a non-invasive 
fingertip monitor

8.1.6 RESP301 tolerability 
In Part 1 of the study, RESP301 tolerability will be assessed in all participants at each dose 
cohort against the individual stopping criteria (Section 7.7.2). In Part 2 of the study, a minimum 
of 50 consented participants who passed the eligibility criteria will receive a test dose of 
RESP301 to assess tolerability. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
In Part 1, participants who do not meet any of the Individual Stopping Criteria (Section 7.7.2), 
and are suitable in the Investigator’s opinion to proceed, can proceed to the next cohort (subject 
to SAC review). 
In Part 2, participants who satisfactorily tolerate the test dose based on the above assessments, 
and are suitable in the Investigator’s opinion to proceed, will be enrolled into the dormant 
period of the study. 
Participants who completed the Screening visit and test dose but were not suitable to continue 
to the dormant period, should be followed up with a phone call 7

8.1.7 The Clinical COPD Questionnaire (CCQ) (Part 2 only) 
The Clinical COPD Questionnaire (CCQ) is a validated, self-administered 10-item 
questionnaire which measures health status and can be used to assess health-related quality of 
life (van der Molen et al, 2003). It has three domains: symptoms (4 items), functional status (4 
items) and mental state (2 items), graded on a 7-point Likert scale from 0 to 6 (0 = no 
impairment). The final score is the sum of all items divided by 10; separate scores for all three 
domains can be calculated. Higher scores indicate a worse health status. 
8.1.8 Instructions to participants (Part 2 only) 
Participants who satisfactorily tolerate the test dose in Part 2, or are not required to take the 
test dose (subject to DMC recommendations), will be trained in preparation, administration 
and transport of the drug product, and the care and cleaning of the nebuliser. 
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 
8.1.9 AE/SAE 
Any Adverse Events observed during the visit should be recorded in the eCRF. 
 
 
 
The Investigator and any qualified designees are responsible for detecting, documenting, and 
reporting events that meet the definition of an AE or SAE and remain responsible for following 
up until the AE has resolved, has stabilised or is otherwise explained, is no longer of clinical 
concern, or the patient is lost to follow-up 
 
8.2 Dormant period 
During the dormant period, the participants will receive monthly follow-up calls to remind 
them to contact the study team if they start experiencing exacerbation symptoms.

For all participants enrolled into the treatment period, follow-up calls will be conducted
 
 to discuss any AEs, changes to medications or 
medical history (including COVID-19 test results, if available). 
Symptoms, AEs, and changes to medications or medical history (including COVID-19 test 
results, if available) will be recorded in eCRF. 
The 
 follow-up call will be the end of study for participants enrolled into the treatment 
period, unless there are any unresolved AEs which should be followed up until resolved,  
stabilised or otherwise explained, no longer of clinical concern, or the patient is lost to follow-
up 
 
8.6 Early Withdrawal 
At the time of discontinuing from the study, if possible, an early discontinuation assessment 
should be conducted, as shown in the SoA (Table 8-1).

9 Pharmacovigilance 
Further details are provided in Appendix 1: Adverse Events: Definitions and Procedures for 
Recording, Evaluating, Follow-up, and Reporting. 
9.1 Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events 
The definitions of AEs and SAEs can be found in Appendix 1: Adverse Events: Definitions 
and Procedures for Recording, Evaluating, Follow-up, and Reporting. 
Adverse events will be reported by the participant (or, when appropriate, by a caregiver, 
surrogate, or the participant's legally authorised representative). 
The Investigator and any qualified designees are responsible for detecting, documenting, and 
reporting events that meet the definition of an AE or SAE and remain responsible for following 
up until the AE has resolved, has stabilised or is otherwise explained, is no longer of clinical 
concern, or the patient is lost to follow-up 
 
9.2 Time Period and Frequency for Collecting AE and SAE Information 
All AEs and SAEs will be collected from signing of informed consent until the last follow-up 
visit at the time points specified in the SoA (Table 8-1). 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
9.3 Method of Detecting AEs and SAEs 
The method of recording, evaluating, and assessing causality of AEs and SAEs and the 
procedures for completing and transmitting SAE reports are provided in Appendix 1: Adverse 
Events: Definitions and Procedures for Recording, Evaluating, Follow-up, and Reporting. 
 
 
 
9.4 Follow-up of AEs and SAEs 
After the initial AE/SAE report, the Investigator is required to proactively follow each 
participant at subsequent visits/contacts. All SAEs will be followed until resolution,

defined in Section
 
Further information on follow-up procedures is given in Appendix 1: Adverse Events: 
Definitions and Procedures for Recording, Evaluating, Follow-up, and Reporting. 
9.5 Regulatory Reporting Requirements for SAE 
Prompt notification (within 24 hours) by the Investigator to the Sponsor of an SAE is essential 
so that legal obligations and ethical responsibilities towards the safety of participants and the 
safety of a study intervention under clinical investigation are met. 
The Sponsor has a legal responsibility to notify both the local regulatory authority and other 
regulatory agencies about the safety of a study intervention under clinical investigation. The 
Sponsor will comply with country-specific regulatory requirements relating to safety reporting 
to the regulatory authority, Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee 
(IEC), and Investigators. 
Investigator safety reports must be prepared for suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions 
(SUSARs) according to local regulatory requirements and Sponsor policy and forwarded to 
Investigators as necessary. 
An Investigator who receives an Investigator safety report describing an SAE or other specific 
safety information (e.g., summary or listing of SAE) from the Sponsor will file it along with 
the Investigator’s Brochure and will notify the local IRB/IEC, if appropriate according to local 
requirements.. 
9.6 Disease-Related Events and/or Disease-Related Outcomes Not 
Qualifying as AEs or SAEs (Not Applicable) 
 
9.7 Adverse Events of Special Interest (Not Applicable) 
No AEs of special interest are defined for this study. 
9.8 Medical Device Deficiencies (Not Applicable) 
The medical device to be used in this study is a 
 nebuliser that is FDA-approved 
and CE-marked and is to be used per the manufacturer’s recommendations. Therefore, data on 
device deficiencies will not be collected in this study.

CONFIDENTIAL 
 
V.5.0 18NOV21 
 
Page  70 of 86 
o Applicable International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical 
Practice (GCP) Guidelines. 
o Applicable laws and regulations. 
• The protocol, protocol amendments, ICF, Investigator Brochure, and other relevant 
documents (e.g., advertisements) must be submitted to an IRB/IEC by the Investigator 
and reviewed and approved by the IRB/IEC before the study is initiated. 
• Any amendments to the protocol will require IEC/IRB approval before implementation 
of changes made to the study design, except for changes necessary to eliminate an 
immediate hazard to study participants. 
• The Investigator will be responsible for the following: 
• Providing written summaries of the status of the study to the IRB/IEC annually or 
more frequently in accordance with the requirements, policies, and procedures 
established by the IRB/EC. 
• Notifying the IRB/IEC of SAE or other significant safety findings as required by 
IRB/IEC procedures. 
• Overall conduct of the study at the site and adherence to requirements of 21 Code 
of Federal Regulations (CFR), ICH GCP guidelines, the IRB/IEC, European 
regulation 536/2014 for clinical studies (if applicable), and all other applicable local 
regulations. 
11.2 Informed Consent Process 
The Investigator or his/her representative will explain the nature of the study to the participant 
and answer all questions regarding the study. 
Participants must be informed that their participation is voluntary. Participants will be required 
to sign a statement of informed consent that meets the local regulations, ICH guidelines, and 
the IRB/IEC or study centre. 
The medical record must include a statement that written informed consent was obtained before 
the participant was enrolled in the study and the date the written consent was obtained. The 
authorised person obtaining the informed consent must also sign the ICF. 
A copy of the ICF(s) must be provided to the participant. 
If a protocol amendment is required, the ICF may need to be revised to reflect the changes to 
the protocol. If the ICF is revised, it must be reviewed and approved by the appropriate 
IEC/IRB and signed by all participants subsequently enrolled in the study as well as those 

Thirty Respiratory Limited

RESP301-005 
CONFIDENTIAL 
 
V.5.0 18NOV21 
 
Page  71 of 86 
currently enrolled in the study if they are affected by the revisions. A measured approach 
should be taken to determine which participants need to be reconsented. 
11.3 Data Protection 
Participants will be assigned a unique identifier by the Sponsor. Any participant records or 
datasets that are transferred to the Sponsor will contain the identifier only; participant names 
or any information which would make the participant identifiable will not be transferred. 
The participant must be informed that his/her personal study-related data will be used by the 
Sponsor in accordance with local data protection law. The level of disclosure must also be 
explained to the participant who will be required to give consent for their data to be used as 
described in the informed consent. 
The participant must be informed that his/her medical records may be examined by Clinical 
Quality Assurance auditors or other authorised personnel appointed by the Sponsor, by 
appropriate IRB/IEC members, and by inspectors from regulatory authorities. 
11.4 Committees Structure 
An IDMC will be responsible for closely reviewing the safety data and for providing their 
recommendations on continuation of the study (see Sections 10.5 and 10.6). 
11.5 Data Quality Assurance 
• 
All participant data relating to the study will be recorded on printed or electronic CRF 
unless transmitted to the Sponsor or designee electronically (e.g., laboratory data). The 
Investigator is responsible for verifying that data entries are accurate and correct by 
physically or electronically signing the CRF. 
• 
The Investigator must maintain accurate documentation (source data) that supports the 
information entered in the CRF. 
• 
The Investigator must permit study-related monitoring, audits, IRB/IEC review, and 
regulatory agency inspections and provide direct access to source data documents. 
• 
Monitoring details describing strategies (e.g., risk-based initiatives in operations and 
quality such as Risk Management and Mitigation Strategies and Analytical Risk-Based 
Monitoring), methods, responsibilities and requirements, including handling of 
noncompliance issues and monitoring techniques (central, remote, or on-site 
monitoring) are provided in the Monitoring Plan. 
• 
The Sponsor or designee is responsible for the data management of this study including 
quality checking of the data. 

Thirty Respiratory Limited 
Clinical Study Protocol 
RESP301-005 
CONFIDENTIAL 
 
V.5.0 18NOV21 
 
Page  72 of 86 
• 
The Sponsor assumes accountability for actions delegated to other individuals (e.g., 
Contract Research Organisations [CROs]). 
• 
Study monitors will perform ongoing source data verification to confirm that data 
entered into the CRF by authorised site personnel are accurate, complete, and verifiable 
from source documents; that the safety and rights of participants are being protected; 
and that the study is being conducted in accordance with the currently approved 
protocol and any other study agreements, ICH GCP, and all applicable regulatory 
requirements. 
• 
Records and documents, including signed ICF, pertaining to the conduct of this study 
must be retained by the Investigator for at least 2 years after the last approval of a 
marketing application or 15 years from completion of the study, whichever is longer 
according to the relevant local laws and/or regulations. No records may be destroyed 
during the retention period without the written approval of the Sponsor. No records may 
be transferred to another location or party without written notification to the Sponsor. 
• All data generated by the site personnel will be captured electronically at each study 
center using eCRFs. Once the eCRF clinical data have been submitted to the eCRF, 
corrections to the data fields will be captured in an audit trail. The reason for change, 
the name of the person who performed the change, together with the time and date will 
be logged to provide an audit trail. 
• If additional corrections are needed, the responsible monitor or data manager will raise 
a query in the electronic data capture (EDC) application. The appropriate staff at the 
study site will answer queries sent to the Investigator. The name of the staff member 
responding to the query, and time and date stamp will be captured to provide an audit 
trail.  
• The specific procedures to be used for data entry and query resolution using the EDC 
system/eCRF will be provided to study sites in a training manual. In addition, site 
personnel will receive training on the EDC system/eCRF. 
11.6  Source Documents 
Source documents provide evidence for the existence of the participant and substantiate the 
integrity of the data collected. Source documents are filed at the Investigator’s site. 
Data reported on the CRF or entered in the eCRF that are transcribed from source documents 
must be consistent with the source documents or the discrepancies must be explained. The 
Investigator may need to request previous medical records or transfer records, depending on 
the study. Also, current medical records must be available.

11.7 Study and Site Start and Closure 
The study start date is the date on which the clinical study will be open for recruitment of 
participants. The first act of recruitment is the first participant signing the informed consent 
form and will be the study start date. 
The Sponsor designee reserves the right to close the study site or terminate the study at any 
time for any reason at the sole discretion of the Sponsor. Study sites will be closed upon study 
completion. A study site is considered closed when all required documents and study supplies 
have been collected and a study site closure (on site visit or remote closure) has been 
performed. 
The Investigator may initiate study site closure at any time, provided there is reasonable cause 
and sufficient notice is given in advance of the intended termination. 
Reasons for the early closure of a study site by the Sponsor or Investigator may include but are 
not limited to: 
• Failure of the Investigator to comply with the protocol, the requirements of the IRB/IEC 
or local health authorities, the Sponsor's procedures, or GCP guidelines 
• Inadequate recruitment of participants by the Investigator 
• Discontinuation of further study intervention development 
If the study is prematurely terminated or suspended, the Sponsor shall promptly inform the 
Investigators, the IECs/IRBs, the regulatory authorities, and any CRO(s) used in the study of 
the reason for termination or suspension, as specified by the applicable regulatory 
requirements. The Investigator shall promptly inform the participant and should assure 
appropriate participant therapy and/or follow-up. 
11.8 Publication Policy 
• The results of this study may be published or presented at scientific meetings. If this is 
foreseen, the Investigator agrees to submit all manuscripts or abstracts to the Sponsor 
at least one month before submission. This allows the Sponsor to protect proprietary 
information and to provide comments. 
• The Sponsor will comply with the requirements for publication of study results. In 
accordance with standard editorial and ethical practice, the Sponsor will generally 
support publication of multicentre studies only in their entirety and not as individual 
site data. In this case, a coordinating Investigator will be designated by mutual 
agreement. 
• Authorship will be determined by mutual agreement and in line with International 
Committee of Medical Journal Editors authorship requirements.

11.9 Protocol Approval and Amendment 
Before the start of the study, the study protocol and/or other relevant documents will be 
approved by the IEC/IRB/Competent Authorities, in accordance with local legal requirements. 
The Sponsor must ensure that all ethical and legal requirements have been met before the first 
participant is enrolled in the study. 
This protocol is to be followed exactly. To alter the protocol, amendments must be written, 
receive approval from the appropriate personnel, and receive IRB/IEC/Competent Authority 
approval prior to implementation (if appropriate).  
Administrative changes (not affecting the participant benefit/risk ratio) may be made without 
the need for a formal amendment. All amendments will be distributed to all protocol recipients, 
with appropriate instructions. 
11.10 Liability and Insurance 
The study Sponsor holds a Clinical Trials Insurance for legal liabilities arising in relation to 
this trial. NHS bodies are legally liable for the negligent acts and omissions of their employees. 
If a patient is harmed whilst taking part in a clinical study as a result of negligence on the part 
of a member of the study team this liability cover would apply. 
11.11 Access to Source Data 
Access to source data is described in the Clinical Trial Agreement for each site.

Any AE that could be related to the protocol procedures and which could modify 
the conduct of the trial. 
The Investigator must report any SAEs to the Sponsor within 24 hours of becoming 
aware of the event by emailing an SAE form to the Sponsor’s PV department. 
The Sponsor’s PV department will confirm receipt within one business day. The site 
should re-send any report where acknowledgement of receipt is not provided. 
Each episode of an SAE must be recorded on a separate SAE form. If new or amended 
information on a previously reported SAE becomes available, the Investigator should 
report this to the PV department on a new SAE form. 
Where an SAE has not been reported to the Sponsor within the specified timelines, a 
reason for lateness must be included with the SAE form. 
All SAEs will be recorded from signing of informed consent until the end of the study. 
Serious adverse events occurring after the end of the study and coming to the attention of 
the Investigator must be reported only if they are considered (in the opinion of the 
Investigator) causally related to study intervention. 
• The primary mechanism for reporting an SAE will be using a paper SAE reporting 
form  
• The Investigator and the Sponsor (or Sponsor’s designated agent) will review each 
SAE report and the Sponsor will evaluate the seriousness and the causal relationship 
of the event to study intervention. In addition, the Sponsor (or Sponsor’s designated 
agent) will evaluate the expectedness according to the reference document (Reference 
Safety Information section in the Investigator Brochure). Based on the Investigator 
and Sponsor’s assessment of the event, a decision will be made concerning the need 
for further action.
