Trial summary

In Asthma, the levels of exhaled FeNO is correlated to sputum eosinophils particularly in the patient with poor controlled asthma or severe asthma. Moreover, the blood eosinophils had been studied that are also correlated to sputum eosinophils in similar patients group. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Correlations of FeNO, Blood Eosinophils and Lung Function in Well-controlled Asthma Based on Asthma Controlled Questionnaires

In Asthma, the levels of exhaled FeNO is correlated to sputum eosinophils particularly in the patient with poor controlled asthma or severe asthma. Moreover, the blood eosinophils had been studied that are also correlated to sputum eosinophils in similar patients group. According to well controlled asthma, althoug hin clinical practice guidelines recommend that the stepping down therapy should be considered to those patients due to the risks or costs of daily treatment, there is previous study has been shown that the airway hyperresponsiveness and sputum eosinophilia are predictors of loss of control during dose reduction. And, these tests are not readily available in primary care. However, there is limit number of clinical study to study the correlation of biologic markers among the patients with well controlled level before the stepping down management.

Read the detailed description

This is a single prospective trial. Enrollment will continue until 50 patients with well controlled asthma have been entered into this trial and have completed blood tests and spirometry. In this trial, the following parameters are to be evaluated:

Blood eosinophils (absolute and relative) FeNO Pulmonary lung function test: FEV1, FVC, PF, MMEF 25-75%, % reversibility

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Asthma, run by Hat Yai Medical Education Center at 1 site in Thailand.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 15 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Thailand. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Assessment of eosinophilic inflammation by correlating blood eosinophil count, FeNO measurement and lung function test (time frame: 3 months). 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 15 Jan 2021.
