About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Two-way Crossover 14-day Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics of Repeat Dose Inhaled Fluticasone Furoate 100ug (Micrograms) in Children Aged 5-11 Years With Persistent Asthma

This study will investigate the effect of dosing with flutucasone furoate in asthmatic subjects aged 5-11 years of age. A randomized, two-way crossover, with placebo control, over a 14 day treatment period, it will investigate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and serum cortisol levels.

Read the detailed description

This study will investigate the effect of dosing with fluticasone furoate 100 μg (micrograms) in asthmatic subjects aged 5-11 years of age. Fluticasone furoate is currently under development as the inhaled corticosteroid component of a combination product containing an inhaled corticosteroid and a long-acting beta-agonist.

The study will be a randomized two-way crossover, with a placebo control. During each treatment period subjects will receive a daily dose via a novel dry powder inhaler for 14 days. Approximately 26 subjects will be recruited to this study, with the aim that 20 will complete the study. Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and serum cortisol levels will be investigated.

    During the inhalation profile assessment, participants inhaled through a mouthpiece from a device with a similar resistance to the dry powder inhaler used for this study. Average flow rate is defined as the average inspiratory flow rate (Liters [L]/min) across the inhalation profile when inhaling across the resistance of the inhaler. PIFR is defined as the Peak Inspiratory Flow Rate (L/min) of the inhalation profile when inhaling across the resistance of the inhaler.The pressure drop during the inhalation was measured, and the inhalation profiles (pressure drop versus time profile) of the participants were obtained. The mean of the two inhalation profile measurements was used for each day (Days 1 and 14 of the respective treatment period), and the average flow rate and PIFR were determined.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 14 of the respective treatment period

  9. Inhalation Time on Days 1 and 14 of the Respective Treatment Period

    During the inhalation profile assessment, participants inhaled through a mouthpiece from a device with a similar resistance to the dry powder inhaler used for this study. Inhalation time is defined as the duration of the inhalation(s) when inhaling across the resistance of the inhaler. The pressure drop during the inhalation was measured, and the inhalation profiles (pressure drop versus time profile) of the participants were obtained. The mean of the two inhalation profile measurements was used for each day (Days 1 and 14 of the respective treatment period), and the inhalation time was determined.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 14 of the respective treatment period

  10. Inhaled Volume on Days 1 and 14 of the Respective Treatment Period

    During the inhalation profile assessment, participants inhaled through a mouthpiece from a device with a similar resistance to the dry powder inhaler used for this study. Inhaled volume is defined as the volume of air (Liters) inhaled during the inhalation across the resistance of the inhaler.

    The pressure drop during the inhalation was measured, and the inhalation profiles (pressure drop versus time profile) of the participants were obtained. The mean of the two inhalation profile measurements was used for each day (Days 1 and 14 of the respective treatment period), and the inhalaled volume was determined.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 14 of the respective treatment period

  11. Peak Pressure Drop on Days 1 and 14 of the Respective Treatment Period

    During the inhalation profile assessment, participants inhaled through a mouthpiece from a device with a similar resistance to the dry powder inhaler used for this study. Peak pressure drop is defined as the maximum pressure drop (kilopascal [kPa]) achieved during inhalation across the resistance of the inhaler. The pressure drop during the inhalation was measured, and the inhalation profiles (pressure drop versus time profile) of the participants were obtained. The mean of the two inhalation profile measurements was calculated for each day (Days 1 and 14 of the respective treatment period), and used for subsequent modeling and prediction of dose emission attributes.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 14 of the respective treatment period

  12. Total Emitted Dose (TED) on Days 1 and 14 of the Respective Treatment Period

    The total emitted dose (TED) is defined as the mass (micrograms) of the nominal dose that passes beyond the throat. The recorded inhalation profiles of the participants and the mouth-throat (oropharyngeal) models of the sizes that approximated to pharyngometry measurements of the participants were used in conjunction with the electronic Lung (eLung) for in vitro assessment. The eLung is a breathing simulator that replicates the selected inhalation profile with an active inhaler placed at the lips end of the selected ororpharyngeal model. After the dose is emitted from the inhaler, the analysis and assay of throat deposition and material passing beyond the throat was used to derive the nominal, minimum, and maximum predicted total emitted dose.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 14 of the respective treatment period

  13. Ex-throat Dose (ETD) and ETD <2 Microns on Days 1 and 14 of the Respective Treatment Period

    The ex-throat dose (ETD) and the "nominal ETD" is the mass (micrograms) of active investigational material that passes beyond the throat, nominal being the mean.The recorded inhalation profiles of the participants and the mouth-throat (oropharyngeal) models of the sizes that approximated to pharyngometry measurements of the participants were used in conjunction with the electronic Lung (eLung) for in vitro assessment. The eLung is a breathing simulator that replicates the selected inhalation profile with an active inhaler placed at the lips end of the selected ororpharyngeal model. After the dose is emitted from the inhaler, the analysis and assay of throat deposition and material passing beyond the throat was used to derive the nominal, minimum, and maximum predicted ETD and ETD <2 microns.

    Measured: Day 1 and Day 14 of the respective treatment period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Fluticasone furoate in people with Asthma, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 5 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 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Mar 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 16 Sep 2013). 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?

Number of Participants With Any Adverse Event (AE) or Any Serious Adverse Event (SAE) During the Treatment Period (time frame: From the start of study medication until Week 11 (Visit 6)/Early Withdrawal). The study lists 15 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Mar 2017.
