What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Post-bronchodilator FEV1 From Baseline to Week 52

    Post-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) is measured at the pulmonary function laboratory.

    Measured: 52 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants With Asthma Exacerbation by Treatment Arm

    Number of participants who experienced worsening of asthma symptoms

    Measured: Baseline to Week 52

  2. Number of Participants With COPD Exacerbation by Treatment Arm

    Number of participants who experienced worsening of COPD symptoms

    Measured: Baseline to Week 52

  3. Change in HbA1C From Baseline to Week 52

    Measured: Baseline, week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Technosphere® Insulin in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Mannkind Corporation at 21 sites in 3 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 19 inclusion and 11 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in United States, Russia, Ukraine. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Feb 2016). 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?

Change in Post-bronchodilator FEV1 From Baseline to Week 52 (time frame: 52 Weeks). 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 14 Apr 2017.
