About this study

Official title: A Two-week, Randomised, Double-blind Study Assessing the Onset of Effect Questionnaire Administered Pre-dose Versus Post-dose in Adult Subjects (≥ 18 Years) With Mild to Moderate Asthma, Receiving SYMBICORT® pMDI 80/4.5 μg x 2 Actuations Twice Daily or Budesonide HFA pMDI 80 μg x 2 Act. Twice Daily

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate whether subjects respond similarly to the Onset of Effect Questionnaire (OEQ) administered pre-dose versus post-dose, while receiving SYMBICORT® pMDI 80/4.5 μg x 2 actuations twice daily or budesonide HFA pMDI 80 μg x 2 actuations twice daily.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Budesonide/formoterol pMDIDrug

    Also called Symbicort

  • Budesonide HFA pMDIDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine whether subjects respond similarly to the Onset of Effect Questionnaire items 2 and 5 when administered post-dose versus pre-dose and does that difference favour a bronchodilator treatment group over a non-bronchodilator treatment group

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine if there is an association between the immediate physiological response to medication and the responses to OEQ items 2 and 5 and to determine what subjects mean when they say they feel their asthma maintenance medication 'working right away

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Budesonide/formoterol pMDI and Budesonide HFA pMDI in people with Asthma, run by AstraZeneca at 46 sites in United States.

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 3 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 24 Jan 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 46 sites in United States. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 whether subjects respond similarly to the Onset of Effect Questionnaire items 2 and 5 when administered post-dose versus pre-dose and does that difference favour a bronchodilator treatment group over a non-bronchodilator treatment group. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00449501, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Jan 2011.
