About this study

Official title: Short- and Long Term Growth in Children With Asthma Treated With Budesonide or Montelukast

The purpose of this study is to assess if treatment with budesonide 200 microgram per day affects short- or long term growth in children with asthma

Read the detailed description

When children with asthma are treated with inhaled corticosteroids there is a risk of systemic adverse events such as growth suppression. It has been reported that treatment with budesonide 200 microgram per day does not affect short term growth in children with asthma. The aim of the present study is to assess if an unaffected short term growth means that also long term growth will be unaffected.

Short and long term growth in asthmatic children treated with budesonide will be compared with the growth in asthmatic children treated with montelukast.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Budesonide and Montelukast in people with Asthma, run by Children´s Clinic, Randers at 1 site in Denmark.

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 3 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 27 Feb 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Lower leg growth rate (time frame: one year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Feb 2008.
