  16. Change From Baseline to Overall Mean of Treatment Period in ACQ-5 (Asthma Control Questionnaire, 5-item Version) Total Score

    The ACQ-5 is a validated questionnaire consisting of 5 items for the assessment of asthma symptom which are night symptom, morning symptom, limitation for the activities, shortness of breath, and wheeze. Each item is graded on a scale of 0-6 and the questions are equally weighted. The ACQ-5 score is the mean of the 5 questions and therefore between 0 (totally controlled) and 6 (severely uncontrolled).

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Treatment Period (1,2,3,4, and 6 months)

  17. Number of Patients Presenting Improvement From Baseline to End of Treatment Period in ACQ-5 (Asthma Control Questionnaire, 5-item Version)

    The ACQ-5 is a validated questionnaire consisting of 5 items for the assessment of asthma symptom which are night symptom, morning symptom, limitation for the activities, shortness of breath, and wheeze. Each item is graded on a scale of 0-6 and the questions are equally weighted. The ACQ-5 score is the mean of the 5 questions and therefore between 0 (totally controlled) and 6 (severely uncontrolled).

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0) and 6 months after Day 0

  18. Change From Baseline to Overall Mean of Treatment Period in AQLQ(S) (Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire Standardised Version) Overall Score

    The AQLQ is a 32-item disease specific questionnaire designed to measure functional impairments in asthma. Patients are asked to score each item on a 7-point scale based on the experience of last 2 weeks. The overall AQLQ score is the mean response to all 32 questions. Therefore, the possible highest score (better) would be 7 and the lowest (worse) would be 1. Changes in scores of 0.5 to 1.0 are considered clinically meaningful; 1.0 to 1.5 as moderate and > 1.5 as marked clinically important differences for any individual domain or for the overall summary score.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Treatment Period (1,3, and 6 months)

  19. Number of Patients Presenting Improvement From Baseline to End of Treatment Period in AQLQ(S) (Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire Standardised Version) Overall Score

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AZD5069 in people with Asthma, run by AstraZeneca at 96 sites in 13 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 1 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 96 sites in Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Czechia and 8 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. 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 1 Mar 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?

Rate of Severe Asthma Exacerbations During 6 Months (time frame: From start of treatment up to 6 months). 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 NCT01704495, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Mar 2016.
