About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Two-centre, Single Blind Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Explore the Efficacy of 8.0 mg ASM8 Inhaled Daily for 14 Days in Adult Subjects With Moderate to Severe Asthma

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and tolerability of 8.0 mg of ASM8 when given daily for 14 days by the Aeroneb® Go nebulizer to subjects with moderate to severe asthma.

Read the detailed description

The safety and tolerability of ASM8 will be assessed by performing a physical exam and vital signs, measuring the use of concomitant medication, routine laboratory tests, urinalysis, sputum analysis, serum IL-1 and TNF-α, lung carbon monoxide diffusion capacity, pulse oximetry and measuring AEs

There are 5 study phases: screening (phase 1), run-in (phase 2), treatment A (phase 3) with Active or Placebo, treatment B(phase 4) with Active or Placebo and end of study (phase 5) that includes a wash out period and a final visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sputum total cells, differential and sputum levels of IL-1 and TNF alpha

    Sputum total cells, differential (neutrophils, macrophages, bronchial cells and lymphocytes) and sputum levels of IL-1 and TNF alpha at the end of each treatment and at the final visit will be reported as absolute counts (10x6 cells/mL) and percentages (%) and change in % from baseline will also be presented.

    Measured: 56 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ASM8 in people with Asthma, run by Syntara.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Sputum total cells, differential and sputum levels of IL-1 and TNF alpha (time frame: 56 days). 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 3 Dec 2012.
