  • Documented reversibility of ≥ 15% in FEV1 during the screening phase.
  • Demonstrate satisfactory technique in the use of the pressurized MDI and spacer device.
  • Willing and able to enter information in the electronic diary (parental help is acceptable for young children) and attend all study visits.
  • Willing and able to substitute study medication for their pre study prescribed asthma medication for the duration of the study.

  • History of leukotriene receptor antagonist use, e.g. montelukast, within the past week.
  • Current evidence or history of any clinically significant disease or abnormality including uncontrolled coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, or cardiac dysrhythmia.

Study compares the efficacy and safety of FLUTIFORM® with Seretide® in the treatment of mild to moderate persistent asthma in pediatric subjects.

Read the detailed description

This is a study involving a 12 week treatment phase followed by a 6 month extension phase. During the treatment phase subjects receive FLUTIFORM® or Seretide®. In the extension phase all subjects receive FLUTIFORM®. Efficacy will be assessed by lung function tests and asthma symptoms, sleep disturbance. Safety will be assessed by adverse events, vital signs, lab tests and ECGs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing FLUTIFORM® (Formoterol fumarate / Fluticasone propionate) in people with Asthma, run by Mundipharma Research Limited at 6 sites in 6 countries.

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 11 inclusion and 14 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 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Czechia, France, Germany, Hungary, Poland and 1 more country. 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?

FEV1, recorded at visits to investigator at 2 wks, 6wks & 12 wks.. 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 24 Oct 2018.
