Trial summary

This multi centre, double blind, comparator controlled, parallel group study is to determine whether asthma treatment with high doses of fluticasone propionate (FP) redirects a Th2/ eosinophil response towards a more treatment resistant neutrophil/ monocyte response and whether this occurs to a lesser extent in… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Rationale for Therapy With Low Dose Steroids Combined With Long-acting beta2-agonists in Patients With Allergic Asthma: Redirecting Innate Immune Responses by Long-term Treatment With High Doses of Inhaled Steroids

This multi centre, double blind, comparator controlled, parallel group study is to determine whether asthma treatment with high doses of fluticasone propionate (FP) redirects a Th2/ eosinophil response towards a more treatment resistant neutrophil/ monocyte response and whether this occurs to a lesser extent in asthmatic subjects treated with the combination product of salmeterol and fluticasone propionate (SFC). The primary endpoint is the mean change in priming of blood neutrophils assessed by marker A17. After a run-in period of 4 weeks subjects will enter a 24 weeks high dose treatment (FP 500 mcg bd) or a 12 week medium-dose treatment with FP 250 mcg bd followed by a 12 week treatment with SFC 50/ 250 mcg. At the visits lung function measurements, ACT, eNO measurements and a blood sample will be performed. A total of 50 randomised subjects are planned to be recruited in this study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing FLIXOTIDE and SERETIDE in people with Asthma, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 2 sites in Netherlands.

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 8 inclusion and 5 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Netherlands. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Mean change in neutrophil priming in blood as assessed by marker A17 (time frame: on going). 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 17 Apr 2015.
