About this study

Official title: A Long Term Follow up Study for a Comparison of Stepwise Treatment of Asthmatic Children With Salmeterol/Fluticasone Propionate Combination Product (SERETIDE®) and/or Fluticasone Propionate (FLIXOTIDE (TM)) Based on PD20 Methacholine and Symptoms or Based on Symptoms Only.

The CATO population is a very well documented population during two years. During this study patients were treated according to the CATO algorithm, after that patient were treated according to the Dutch national (GINA derived) guidelines up to 6 years of follow-up. The purpose of this prospective follow-up study is to understand the long-term effects of treatment. Therefore the measurements done at baseline (CATO part 1) are repeated after 6 years in this CATO-population (CATO follow-up).

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison of the mean annual in FEV1 (% predicted) between randomisation (CATO visit 2) and the current visit 2 between both treatment arms.

    Measured: 6 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Comparison of both treatment arms (BHR strategy versus reference strategy):• Lung function FVC and PEFR measured in the clinic between randomisation ( and current visit 2 expressed as the mean annual change of % predicted

    Measured: 6 years

  2. • Percentage asthma symptom free days during 6 weeks of this extension study • Bronchial hyperresponsiveness, determined with PD20 methacholine between randomisation and current visit 2

    Measured: 6 years

  3. Growth rate between randomisation and current visit 2 (expressed as SD-scores)•frequency of asthma exacerbations between randomisation and current visit 2

    Measured: 6 years

  4. • Height at current visit 1 or at last measurement at which subject has reached their final height.• Cumulative ICS doses between randomisation and current visit 2 (if this can be achieved with sufficient reliability)

    Measured: 6 years

  5. Quality of Life (Juniper questionnaire)

    Measured: 6 weeks

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Comparison of the mean annual in FEV1 (% predicted) between randomisation (CATO visit 2) and the current visit 2 between both treatment arms. (time frame: 6 years). 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 19 Mar 2012.
