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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusions:

  • Patients with mild-to-moderate asthma for at least 6 months prior to Visit 1 (as defined in the GINA Guidelines) which is unlikely to exacerbate during the study (e.g., due to seasonal allergen exposure).
  • Patients must be on a stable dose of Inhaled Corticosteroids (ICS) for at least 30 days prior to Visit 1. Patients on a combination of ICS/LABA must discontinue the use of LABA and must be on a stable dose of ICS for 30 days prior to Visit 1.
  • Qualifying spirometry at Visit 1 demonstrates highest FEV1 is ≤ 85% and ≥ 60% of predicted for age, height, and gender using NHANES III (NHANES 2010) when bronchodilator medications have been withheld the appropriate length of time per the List of Concomitant Medications (Appendix III)
  • Patient demonstrates reversibility with an increase in FEV1 of 12% and 200 mL after the administration of 360 µg of albuterol.
  • Highest pre-dose FEV1 at Visits 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 must be within 25% of the qualifying FEV1 at Visit 1

Exclusions:

  • Patients with any clinically significant respiratory conditions other than mild to moderate asthma, such as COPD, active tuberculosis, or history of interstitial lung disease
  • Patients with a severe asthma exacerbation requiring hospitalization in the previous 12 months
  • Patient is not able to withhold use of inhaled short-acting beta-agonist (SABA) for at least 6 hours prior to visit

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
Change From Baseline in Normalized Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) AUC0-6 After the Morning Dose (Day 14)
Time Frame: Baseline and up to 6 hrs post-dose (±15 min) on Day 14 of treatment
AUC0-6 is area under the curve from time 0 to 6 hours Serial spirometry was performed at -60 min predose, at 5 (+5) and 30 (±5) min post-dose, and at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hrs post-dose (±15 min) Change from baseline was baseline of each treatment period The normalized FEV1 AUC0-6 was calculated by means of the trapezoidal method, dividing the area under the curve by the corresponding time intervals
Baseline and up to 6 hrs post-dose (±15 min) on Day 14 of treatment

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
Change From Baseline in Normalized FEV1 AUC0-6 After the Morning Dose (Day 1)
Time Frame: Baseline and up to 6 hrs post-dose (±15 min) on Day 1 of treatment
AUC0-6 is area under the curve from time 0 to 6 hours Serial spirometry was performed at -60 min predose, at 5 (+5) and 30 (±5) min post-dose, and at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 hrs post-dose (±15 min) Change from baseline was baseline of Period 1 The time-normalized FEV1 AUC0-6 was calculated by means of the trapezoidal method, dividing the area under the curve by the corresponding time intervals
Baseline and up to 6 hrs post-dose (±15 min) on Day 1 of treatment

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
