About this study

Official title: A 12-week, Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Three-period, Cross-over Pilot Study Comparing the Effect of Salmeterol/Fluticasone Propionate, Fluticasone Propionate and Placebo on Perpheral Blood Eosinophils and Serum IL-5 in Response to Allergen Challenge in Asthma Subjects When Allergen Challenge is Administered at 1 Hour or 11-12 Hours Post-dose of the Dosing Interval

The aim of the present study is to investigate whether the effects of salmeterol in combination with fluticasone propionate on blood markers of airway inflammation are maintained after chronic dosing and whether the effect is influenced by the time of allergen challenge relative to the time of dosing.

What is being measured

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

  1. Weighted Mean Change From Baseline Over 0-6 Hours in Blood Eosinophils Post-Allergen Challenge on Day 35

    Number of peripheral blood eosinophils measured from blood draws

    Measured: 0-6 hours post allergen challenge, 10-11 hours post treatment, Day 35

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Weighted Mean Change From Baseline Over 0-6 Hours in Blood Eosinophils Post-Allergen Challenge on Day 14

    Number of peripheral blood eosinophils measured from blood draws

    Measured: 0-6 hours, post allergen challenge, 1 hour post treatment, Day 14

  2. Weighted Mean Change From Baseline Over 0-6 Hours in Serum IL-5 Post-Allergen Challenge on Day 35

    Amount of serum interleukin (IL)-5 measured from blood draws

    Measured: 0-6 hours post allergen challenge, 10-11 hours post treatment, Day 35

  3. Weighted Mean Change From Baseline Over 0-6 Hours in Serum IL-5 Post-Allergen Challenge on Day 14

    Amount of serum IL-5 measured from blood draws

    Measured: 0-6 hours post allergen challenge, 1 hour after dosing, Day 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing FP and SFC in people with Asthma, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 2 sites in 2 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 10 inclusion and 17 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 16 Dec 2016. 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 United States, United Kingdom. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Sep 2009). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Weighted Mean Change From Baseline Over 0-6 Hours in Blood Eosinophils Post-Allergen Challenge on Day 35 (time frame: 0-6 hours post allergen challenge, 10-11 hours post treatment, Day 35). 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 16 Dec 2016.
