Measurement of Exhaled NO and Bronchial Provocation Test With Mannitol as a Predictor of Response to Inhaled Corticosteroids in Chronic Cough

Chronic cough is defined by its persistence beyond 8 weeks. Many conditions can explain the existence of a bronchial inflammation. In the management of chronic cough, the search for bronchial hyperreactivity (HRB) is recommended. The treatment relies primarily on the prescription of inhaled corticosteroids. It has been shown recently that the existence of an HRB with Methacholine (bronchial provocation test used in routine) does predict the effectiveness of inhaled corticosteroid treatment in no more than 50% of cases.

It is now possible to assess the bronchial inflammation by rapid, non-invasive and reproducible tests such that the fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and bronchial provocation test with mannitol. In a retrospective study, it was shown that an increased value of FeNO (cut-off > 35 ppb) predicts a positive response to treatment with a sensitivity of 90% and a specificity of 80%.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to show that the use of the prospective value of exhaled NO can predict response to treatment with inhaled corticosteroids in adult with chronic cough. In addition we will assess the interest of the prognosis of bronchial provocation test with mannitol in this indication.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: bronchial provocation test with mannitol

Patients referred for evaluation of a chronic cough (without treatment or after stopping inhaled corticosteroids for 2 weeks) will perform a measure of FeNO, a bronchial provocation test with mannitol, will fill out a questionnaire of quality of life for the cough (Leicester Cough Questionnaire) and the intensity of coughing on a 10-cm visual scale.

After 6 weeks after treatment with inhaled corticosteroids patients will perform the same tests.
Procedure: bronchial provocation test with mannitol

Bronchial provocation test with mannitol: Aridol is supplied in kit form containing sufficient capsules to complete one complete challenge, and the inhalation device.

  1. Apply nose clip and subject should be directed to breathe through the mouth
  2. Insert 0 mg capsule into inhalation device. Puncture capsule by depressing buttons on side of device slowly, and once only (a second puncture may fragment the capsules)
  3. The patient should exhale completely, before inhaling from device in a controlled rapid deep inspiration
  4. At the end of deep inspiration, start 60 second timer, subject should hold breath for 5 seconds and exhale through mouth before removal of nose clip
  5. At the end of 60 seconds, measure the FEV1 in duplicate (this becomes baseline FEV1)
  6. Insert 5 mg capsule into inhalation device, and proceed as above
  7. Repeat steps 1 - 4 following the dose steps in the table below until the patient has a positive response or 635 mg has been administered.
Other Names:
  • Aridol

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure

The intensity of coughing on a 10-cm visual scale
Time Frame: 6 weeks after treatment with inhaled corticosteroids
6 weeks after treatment with inhaled corticosteroids

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure

Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the threshold value of 35 ppb FeNo to the clinical response seen as positive if the EVA reduces cough of at least 2 cm
