Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 6 to 11 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child

Who may be able to join

  • All patients' parent(s) (or legal guardian) must sign and date an informed consent prior to participation in the trial. In addition, an informed assent suitable for this age group has to be obtained from patients. A separate informed consent/assent is required for pharmacogenomic sampling.
  • Male or female patients between 6 and 11 years of age.
  • All patients must have at least a 6-month history of asthma.
  • All patients must have been on maintenance treatment with an inhaled corticosteroid at a stable medium dose, either as mono treatment or in combination with another controller medication, for at least 4 weeks before Visit 1. While the LTRA is permitted throughout the trial, the LABA has to be stopped at least 24 hours prior to Visit 1, as no LABAs are permitted during screening and treatment period of this trial.
  • All patients must be symptomatic (partly controlled) at Visit 1 and prior to randomisation at Visit 2 as defined by an Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-IA) mean score >= 1.5.
  • All patients must have a pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) >= 60% and =< 90% of predicted normal at Visit 1.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Variation of absolute FEV1 values of Visit 1 (pre-bronchodilator, considered as 100%) as compared to Visit 2 (pre-dose) must be within ± 30%.
  • All patients must confirm the diagnosis of asthma by bronchodilator reversibility at Visit 1, resulting in an increase in FEV1 of >= 12%, 15 to 30 minutes after 200 mcg salbutamol/albuterol.
  • Patients must be able to use the Respimat inhaler correctly.
  • Patients must be able to perform all trial related procedures including technically acceptable pulmonary function tests and use of electronic diary/peak flow meter (diary compliance of at least 80% is required).

Who cannot join

  • Patients with a significant disease other than asthma.
  • Patients with a clinically relevant abnormal haematology or blood chemistry at screening.
  • Patients with a history of congenital or acquired heart disease, or patients who have been hospitalized for cardiac syncope or failure during the past year.

  • Patients who have previously been randomised in this trial or are currently participating in another trial.
  • Patients with any acute asthma exacerbation or respiratory tract infection in the four weeks prior to Visit 1 and /or in four weeks prior to Visit 2.

    Daytime activity limitations was assessed by the question "how limited were you in your activities today because of your asthma?" from the e-diary. Scores range from 1 (not limited) to 5 (totally limited).

    Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    The number of participants analysed displays the number of participants included in the statistical model whereas the N's for each timepoint display the number of participants with available data at that timepoint.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 24, Baseline and Week 48.

  28. Change From Baseline in Daytime Experiences of Shortness of Breath

    Change from baseline in daytime experiences of shortness of breath based on the weekly mean at weeks 24 and 48.

    Daytime experiences of shortness of breath was assessed by the question "how much shortness of breath did you experience during the day" from the e-diary. Scores range from 1 (none) to 5 (a very great deal).

    Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    The number of participants analysed displays the number of participants included in the statistical model whereas the N's for each timepoint display the number of participants with available data at that timepoint.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 24, Baseline and Week 48.

  29. Change From Baseline in Daytime Experiences of Wheeze or Cough

    Change from baseline in daytime experiences of wheeze or cough based on the weekly mean at weeks 24 and 48.

    Daytime experiences of wheeze or cough was assessed by the question "did you experience wheeze or cough during the day?" from the e-diary. Scores range from 1 (not at all) to 5 (all the time).

    Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    The number of participants analysed displays the number of participants included in the statistical model whereas the N's for each timepoint display the number of participants with available data at that timepoint.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 24, Baseline and Week 48.

  30. Change From Baseline in Asthma Symptom-free Days

    Change from baseline in asthma symptom-free days based on the weekly mean at weeks 24 and 48.

    A day was considered as an asthma symptom-free day if there were no symptoms reported via the e-Diary (electronic diary) and no use of rescue medication reported via the eDiary during that day.

    Measured values presented are actually adjusted means.

    The number of participants analysed displays the number of participants included in the statistical model whereas the N's for each timepoint display the number of participants with available data at that timepoint.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 24, Baseline and Week 48.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tiotropium low dose QD and Tiotropium high dose QD in people with Asthma, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 79 sites in 16 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 25 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 12 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 79 sites in Ukraine, Russia, Latvia, Germany, Portugal and 11 more countries. 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 12 Jul 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?

FEV1 Peak (0-3h) Change From Baseline (time frame: Baseline and 24 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 12 Jul 2016.
