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

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Physician-diagnosed mild-to-moderate asthma for more than 12 months based on GINA guidelines.
  • At least 1 asthma exacerbation in the year prior to Screening (Visit 1).
  • Pre-BD FEV1 of equal or more than 40% of predicted normal (by Global Lung Function Initiative [GLI] standards) at Screening (Visit 1).

Exclusion Criteria:

Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:

  • Other severe lung diseases (eg, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD]. bronchiectasis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, etc) which may impair lung function.
  • Participants who experience a deterioration of asthma that results in emergency treatment or hospitalization, or treatment with systemic steroids within 1 month prior to the Screening (Visit 1) (counting from the date of completion of treatment for asthma exacerbation).
  • Participants who have experienced an upper or lower respiratory tract infection within the 4 weeks prior to Screening (Visit 1).
  • Known history of, or suspected, significant current immunosuppression, including history of invasive opportunistic or helminthic infections despite infection resolution or otherwise recurrent infections of abnormal frequency or prolonged duration.
  • Evidence of any infection requiring systemic anti-infective treatment within 2 weeks before Screening (Visit 1) or during the screening period. Significant viral infections within 2 weeks before Screening (Visit 1) or during the screening period even if the participant has not received systemic antiviral treatment (eg, influenza receiving only symptomatic treatment).
  • Participants with active tuberculosis (TB), latent TB, a history of incompletely treated TB, suspected extrapulmonary TB infection, or who are at high risk of contracting TB (such as close contact with individuals with active TB), or received Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-vaccination within 12 weeks prior to Screening (Visit 1).
  • Severe concomitant illness that would in the Investigator's opinion inhibit the participant's participation in the study, including for example, but not limited to, hypertension, renal disease, neurological conditions, heart failure, and pulmonary disease.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Annualized rate of asthma exacerbation events
Time Frame: From baseline up to 52 weeks
Asthma exacerbation event defined as: worsening of asthma requiring the use of systemic corticosteroids for ≥3 days; or hospitalization or emergency room visit due to asthma and requiring the use of systemic corticosteroids or death due to asthma
From baseline up to 52 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from baseline in prebronchodilator (BD) forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52
From baseline to week 52
Change from baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire5 (ACQ-5) score
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52
The ACQ-5 is a questionnaire that measures the adequacy of asthma control and any changes in asthma control that may occur spontaneously or as a result of treatment. The ACQ-5 has five questions on the asthma symptoms and patients are asked to recall how their asthma has been during the previous week and to respond on a 7-point scale for each question (0 = no impairment, 6 = maximum impairment). The ACQ-5 score is the mean of the 5 questions and, therefore, between 0 (totally controlled) and 6 (severely uncontrolled). A high score indicates low asthma control.
From baseline to week 52
Change from baseline in FeNO level
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52
From baseline to week 52
Annualized rate of asthma exacerbations requiring hospitalization or emergency room or urgent care visit
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52
From baseline to week 52
Total systemic corticosteroid dose exposure
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52
From baseline to week 52
Change from baseline in Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire Standardized (AQLQ{S}) scores
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52
From baseline to week 52
Change from baseline in the Asthma Daytime Symptom Diary (ADSD) daily morning and evening score
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52
From baseline to week 52
Serum lunsekimig concentrations
Time Frame: From baseline to week 56
From baseline to week 56
Incidence and titer of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) against lunsekimig
Time Frame: From baseline to week 56
From baseline to week 56
Incidence of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including local reactions, adverse events of special interests (AESIs), serious adverse events (SAEs)
Time Frame: From baseline to week 56
From baseline to week 56
Annualized rate of loss of asthma control events (LOAC) events
Time Frame: From baseline to week 52

Annualized rate of LOAC events defined by 1 or more of the following criteria:

  • ≥30% reduction from baseline in morning PEF on 2 consecutive days
  • ≥6 additional reliever puffs of SABA in a 24-hour period (compared to baseline) on 2 consecutive days OR ≥4 additional puffs of low-dose budesonide/formoterol or budesonide/albuterol in a 24-hour period (compared to baseline) on 2 consecutive days
  • Worsening of asthma requiring the use of systemic corticosteroids for ≥3 days
  • Hospitalization or emergency room visit because of asthma, requiring systemic corticosteroids (asthma exacerbation event)
  • Death due to asthma
From baseline to week 52
