A Study of the Bronchodilator Effect of Formoterol Fumarate Used in Combination With Mometasone Furoate Metered Dose Inhaler in Children With Persistent Asthma (P06476 AM2)

February 7, 2022 updated by: Organon and Co

A Randomized, Evaluator-Blind, Crossover, Single Dose Study of the Bronchodilator Effect of Formoterol Fumarate in Combination With Mometasone Furoate Metered Dose Inhaler Delivered With and Without a Spacer Versus Placebo and Foradil® Aerolizer® in Children With Persistent Asthma (Protocol No. P06476)

A study to compare the bronchodilatory effect of a single dose of Mometasone Furoate/Formoterol Fumarate (MF/F) pressurized metered dose inhaler (MDI) delivered with and without an AeroChamber Plus® with Flow-Vu® Anti-Static Valved Holding Chamber (spacer) versus Placebo MDI (combined with and without spacer) and formoterol fumarate (F) dry powder inhaler (DPI). Participants were randomly assigned to 1 of 6 treatment sequences and each participant was to receive a single dose of each of 4 treatments in each period. Each treatment period was separated by a 5 to 7 day washout period. It assumed that a single dose MF/F MDI 100/10 microgram (mcg) delivered with a spacer would produce bronchodilation, defined as a significant increase in forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) area under the curve from 0 to 12 hours (AUC[0-12 hr]) when compared to placebo.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Area Under the Curve From 0-12 Hours (AUC[0-12h]) of the Change From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) After a Single Dose of MF/F MDI With Spacer Compared to Placebo MDI Combined With or Without Spacer
Time Frame: Up to 12 hours postdose
The AUC was standardized to liters by dividing the length of time for which measurements of FEV1 were included in the calculation of the AUC. Baseline was defined as the average of 2 pre-dose FEV1 measurements (taken 30 minutes before and immediately before dosing), which was subtracted from each of the serial FEV1 measurements over the 12-hour period. The AUC was calculated based on these changes from the baseline evaluations using the trapezoidal rule.
Up to 12 hours postdose
