Dose Response AMP Challenge Study With Beclometasone Dipropionate (BDP)/Formoterol Pressurised Metered Dose Inhaler (pMDI)

October 28, 2021 updated by: Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A.

Dose Response Evaluation of CHF 1535 HFA pMDI in Asthmatic Patients Using Lung Function, Adenosine Monophosphate Bronchial Challenge and Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FENO)

The aim of this exploratory investigation is to evaluate if the Forced Expiratory Volume in the 1st second (FEV1) measurements, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) and Provocative Concentration 20 (PC20) after Adenosine Monophosphate (AMP) bronchial challenge evaluated after administration of a fixed combination of a Long-acting Beta-2-agonist (LABA) and an Inhaled Corticosteroid (ICS) at increasing doses may be suitable to demonstrate a dose response.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 46 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
PC20 after AMP challenge
Time Frame: 4 h post dose
Provocative Concentration of AMP causing a 20% fall in FEV1.
4 h post dose
Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO)
Time Frame: 4 h post dose
Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (ppb). FeNO is a biomarker measured in a breath test and it is a validated method for measuring the airway inflammation in asthma.
4 h post dose
Lung function
Time Frame: from 0 to 4 h post dose
FEV1 area under the curve from 0 to 4 hour post dose (AUC0-4h)
from 0 to 4 h post dose

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
FENO
Time Frame: 2 h post dose
Fractional exhaled nitric oxide
2 h post dose
