Subjects will receive two 5-day infusion cycles of IV gallium. The study will evaluate the safety and antimycobacterial effect of two 5-day infusions of IV gallium.

Sweat chloride ≥ 60 milliequivalent (mEq)/liter by quantitative pilocarpine iontophoresis test (QPIT)
Two well-characterized mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene
Abnormal nasal potential difference (NPD) (change in NPD in response to a low chloride solution and isoproteronol of less than -5 mV)
Documentation of NTM culture positive defined as follows
Two positive NTM culture results from sputum (or BAL) at least 28 days apart (these are the two qualifying positive cultures)
Both qualifying positive culture results include M. avium complex, M. abscessus complex, or both M. avium and M. abscessus
Both qualifying positive culture results include the same species or subspecies
No cultures negative for NTM since the first of the two qualifying positive culture results
Current NTM species or subspecies has never been treated or previous treatment was
Able to expectorate sputum
associated with clearance of NTM and completed > 2 years prior to Day 1
Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) ≥ 25 % of predicted value at Screening
Clinically stable with no significant changes in health status within 7 days prior to Day 1
Enrolled in the CFF Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Patient Registry (CFFPR)
Willing to discontinue chronic azithromycin use for the duration of the study

Exclusion Criteria

Any of the following abnormal lab values at screening

Has any other condition that, in the opinion of the Site Investigator/designee, would preclude informed consent or assent, make study participation unsafe, complicate interpretation of study outcome data, or otherwise interfere with achieving the study objectives
New initiation of chronic therapy (greater than 21 days) within 28 days prior to the Enrollment Visit
For people able to father a child: unwilling to use adequate contraception (as
determined by the investigator) during the study
