About this study

Official title: Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Repeated Doses Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacodynamic Activity of Inhaled TPI-1020 Versus Inhaled Budesonide in Smokers With Mild Reversible Asthma

The investigators will look at TPI-1020 safety and tolerability in mild to moderate asthmatic smoker subjects.

Read the detailed description

This study will assess and compare the safety and tolerability of inhaled TPI 1020 versus budesonide. Pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) parameters will also be studied in a sub-group of subjects.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To determine the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of TPI-1020 in subjects with asthma who smoke

    Measured: 22 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. To compare sputum neutrophil and eosinophil counts on Day 0 versus Day 15 and Day 22

    Measured: 22 days

  2. To determine pharmacodynamic effects on forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) over 8 hours on Day 1 and Day 14

    Measured: 22 days

  3. To compare pre-dose FEV1 measurements on multiple days throughout the study

    Measured: 22 days

  4. To compare peak flow measurements throughout the study

    Measured: 22 days

  5. To compare the use of daily rescue medication (salbutamol) throughout the study

    Measured: 22 days

  6. To determine the plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) profile on a sub-group of subjects on the first and last day of the dosing period

    Measured: 22 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing TPI-1020 and budesonide in people with Asthma, run by Syntara at 7 sites in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of TPI-1020 in subjects with asthma who smoke (time frame: 22 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Dec 2012.
