Efficacy and Safety of Omalizumab in Children (6 - < 12 Years) With Moderate-severe, Inadequately Controlled Allergic Asthma

9 aprile 2012 aggiornato da: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A 1 Year, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter Evaluation of Efficacy, Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Omalizumab in Children (6 - < 12 Years) With Moderate-severe, Persistent, Inadequately Controlled Allergic Asthma

A substance called immunoglobulin E (IgE), which is naturally produced by our body, has a key role in generating asthma attacks. In patients with allergies, there is an exaggerated production of IgE in response to specific substances such as pollens. Omalizumab is a new drug that inactivates IgE. This study tested the safety and efficacy of omalizumab against asthma attacks in children with allergic asthma.

Armi e interventi

Gruppo di partecipanti / Arm
Intervento / Trattamento
Sperimentale: Omalizumab
Participants received omalizumab administered by subcutaneous injection every 2 or 4 weeks for a duration of 52 weeks. The omalizumab dose was based on the patient's body weight and total serum IgE level at Screening. The first 24 weeks of the treatment period was a fixed steroid phase where the steroid dose was maintained constant; in the following 28 weeks the steroid dose was adjustable, depending on the patient's condition. Following the 52-week treatment period, patients were followed up for an additional 16 weeks.
The omalizumab dose administered, based on the patient's body weight and total serum IgE level at Screening, and the number of injections and injection volume was determined from the dosing tables in the protocol. Omalizumab 75 to 375 mg was administered subcutaneous (SC) every 2 or 4 weeks depending on the dose.
Patients entered the study using their current formulation of any inhaled steroid (proprietary drug and device) ≥ 200 μg/day equivalent of fluticasone administered with a dry-powder inhaler.
Comparatore placebo: Placebo
Placebo was administered by subcutaneous injection every 2 or 4 weeks depending on the dosing schedule in the protocol for a total of 52 weeks. The first 24 weeks of the treatment period was a fixed steroid phase where the steroid dose was maintained constant; in the following 28 weeks the steroid dose was adjustable, depending on the patient's condition. Following the 52-week treatment period, patients were followed up for an additional 16 weeks.
Patients entered the study using their current formulation of any inhaled steroid (proprietary drug and device) ≥ 200 μg/day equivalent of fluticasone administered with a dry-powder inhaler.
Placebo was administered subcutaneous (SC) every 2 or 4 weeks depending on the dosing schedule in the protocol.

Misure di risultato primarie

Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Rate of Clinically Significant Asthma Exacerbations Per Patient in the 24-week Fixed-dose Steroid Treatment Period
Lasso di tempo: Baseline to end of the fixed-dose steroid treatment period (Week 24)
A clinically significant asthma exacerbation was defined as a worsening of asthma symptoms, as judged clinically by the investigator, requiring doubling of the baseline inhaled corticosteroid dose and/or treatment with systemic rescue corticosteroids for at least 3 days. The exacerbations rate per patient was derived using Poisson model adjusted by time at risk and the following covariates: country, exacerbation history, and dose schedule. A patient's person-days at risk was taken as the total amount of time (in days) he/she spent in the 24-week fixed-dose steroid treatment period.

Change in Mean Nocturnal Asthma Symptom Score From Baseline to the End (Last 4 Weeks) of the 24-week Fixed-dose Steroid Treatment Period
Lasso di tempo: Baseline to the end (last 4 weeks) of the 24-week fixed-dose steroid treatment period
Nocturnal asthma symptom was measured daily on a scale of 0 to 4 in response to the question "How did you sleep last night?", with 0 as the best response and 4 as the worst response. The mean of the last 4 weeks of the 24-week fixed-dose steroid treatment period was calculated; for patients who discontinued prematurely, the mean of the last 28 days before discontinuation was calculated. A negative change in mean score indicated improvement.

Rate of Clinically Significant Asthma Exacerbations Per Patient in the 52-week Treatment Period
Lasso di tempo: Baseline to end of the treatment period (Week 52)
A clinically significant asthma exacerbation was defined as a worsening of asthma symptoms, as judged clinically by the investigator, requiring doubling of the baseline inhaled corticosteroid dose and/or treatment with systemic rescue corticosteroids for at least 3 days. The exacerbations rate per patient was derived using Poisson model adjusted by time at risk and the following covariates: country, exacerbation history, and dose schedule. A patient's person-days at risk was taken as the total amount of time (in days) he/she spent in the 52-week treatment period.

Change in Mean Daily Number of Puffs of Asthma Rescue Medication From Baseline to the End (Last 4 Weeks) of the 24-week Fixed-dose Steroid Treatment Period
Lasso di tempo: Baseline to the end (last 4 weeks) of the 24-week fixed-dose steroid treatment period
Patients were instructed to record the number of puffs of rescue medication they took twice daily in a diary. The mean daily number of puffs during the last 4 weeks of the 24-week fixed-dose steroid treatment period was calculated; for patients who discontinued prematurely, the mean of the last 28 days before discontinuation was calculated. A negative change in mean daily number of puffs indicated reduced use of rescue medication.
Baseline to the end (last 4 weeks) of the 24-week fixed-dose steroid treatment period
Change in Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (Standardized) [PAQLQ(S)] Scores From Baseline to the End of the 24-week Fixed-dose Steroid Treatment Period (Week 24)
Lasso di tempo: Baseline to the end of the 24-week fixed-dose steroid treatment period (Week 24)
PAQLQ measures functional problems that are most troublesome to children with asthma. PAQLQ has 23 questions in 3 domains (activity limitation=5, emotional function=8, symptoms=10). Patients responded to each question on a 7-point Likert scale. Overall PAQLQ score is mean of 23 questions; each domain score is mean of questions in that domain. Minimum possible value is 1 (maximum impairment); maximum possible value is 7 (no impairment). Positive change indicated improvement. The analysis included country, baseline PAQLQ value, and dosing schedule (2-weekly/4-weekly) as factors and covariates.
