About this study
Official title: A Phase III Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group Trial to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Tiotropium Inhalation Solution Delivered Via Respimat Inhaler (2.5 and 5 µg Once Daily) Compared With Placebo Over 52 Weeks in Patients With Moderate to Severe Persistent Asthma
The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2.5 and 5 µg tiotropium over a 52-week treatment period as compared to placebo. Tiotropium inhalation solution delivered by the Respimat inhaler will be examined on top of maintenance treatment with inhaled corticosteroid controller medication in patients with moderate to severe persistent asthma. Efficacy and safety will be assessed by measuring effects on lung function, effects on asthma exacerbations, effects on asthma control, and number of adverse events.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Tiotropium Respimat in people with Asthma, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 55 sites in Japan.
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 24 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 4 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 55 sites in Japan. 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 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 4 Jul 2014). 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 Patients With Drug-related Adverse Events (time frame: after the first dose of trial medication and within 30 days after the last dose of trial medication, up to 409). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01340209, which also lists 3 linked publications.
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 4 Jul 2014.
