About this study

Official title: A Multi-centre Multi-country Prospective obseRvatIonal Study on Patterns of Care of Mild Asthmatic patiEnts

The PRIME study is an observational, Real World Evidence study designed to collect the type of treatments that are currently prescribed to patients with mild asthma and to collect relevant clinical data that could reflect the control of the disease over a 6-month observational period according to the standard clinical practice.

Read the detailed description

Outpatients attending the hospital clinics/study centres will be recruited. Patients with mild asthma treated by Step 1 or step 2 treatments according to GINA report will be recruited. A total of approximately 1200 patients will be enrolled. Patients will be followed-up during a 6-month observational period according to standard practices.

What is being measured

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

  1. To describe the real-world patterns of treatment of subjects with mild asthma during a 6-month observational period.

    Frequency of asthma treatments for asthma management, regardless the duration:

    • by active substance
    • by drug class
    • distinguishing between "controller" and "reliever" treatments

    Measured: 6-months period

  2. To describe the real-world patterns of treatment of subjects with mild asthma during a 6-month observational period.

    Frequency of subjects experiencing asthma treatment switches, step-ups and step-downs during the observation period, along with the description of pattern of switch (in terms of sequence of treatments over time)

    Measured: 6-months period

  3. To describe the real-world patterns of treatment of subjects with mild asthma during a 6-month observational period.

    Frequency of treatment posology, stratified by type of asthma treatment

    Measured: 6-months period

  4. To describe the real-world patterns of treatment of subjects with mild asthma during a 6-month observational period.

    Duration of asthma treatments (in months):

    • overall
    • by drug class (i.e., any switch to drugs within the same class will be considered as a continuation of the treatment) and by active substance (i.e., any dose adaptation will be considered as a continuation of the same drug). This will be adapted according to data availability.

    Measured: 6-months period

Secondary outcomes (22)

    Type of diagnosis strategy

    Measured: At enrolment

  7. To describe the asthma exacerbations of subjects with mild asthma at enrolment visit

    Measured: At enrolment and at 6-month

  11. To describe the evolution of lung function parameters (FEV1 (%)) during the 6-month observational period

    Spirometry results at enrolment and at 6-month follow-up visit (according to sites' standard practice): measurement of FEV1 predicted value in %,

    Measured: At enrolment and at 6-month

  12. To describe the evolution of lung function parameters (FVC (L)) during the 6-month observational period

  14. To describe the evolution of lung function parameters (FEV1/FVC ratio) during the 6-month observational period

    Spirometry results at enrolment and at 6-month follow-up visit (according to sites' standard practice): measurement of FEV1/FVC ratio in %

    Measured: At enrolment and at 6-month

  15. To describe subjects' level of asthma symptoms control by means of the Asthma Control Test (ACT) during the 6-month observational period

    ACT score. ACT is a 5-point scale (for symptoms and activities: 1=all the time to 5= not at all; for asthma control rating: 1=not controlled at all to 5=completely controlled). ACT scores range from 5 (poor control of asthma) to 25 (complete control of asthma), with higher scores reflecting greater asthma control. An ACT score >19 indicates well-controlled asthma.

    Measured: At enrolment and at 6-month

  16. To describe subjects' level of asthma symptoms control by means of the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-5) during the 6-month observational period

    ACQ-5 score. ACQ-5 is a 7-point scale (0=no impairment, 6= maximum impairment) and scores range between 0 (totally controlled) and 6 (severely uncontrolled).

    Measured: At enrolment and at 6-month

  17. To describe the occurrence of asthma exacerbations during the 6-month observational period

    Number of Asthma exacerbations during the 6-month observational period (seriousness, severity, relatedness to the treatment product, start date and end date (duration will be calculated during data analysis), outcome, action taken with respect to drug and other treatments used to treat exacerbations)

    Measured: 6-months period

  18. To describe the utilization of healthcare resources in subjects with mild asthma during the 6- month observational period

    Number of Inward/Day-hospital hospitalizations, emergency room accesses and GP/outpatient specialist visits

    Measured: 6-months period

  19. To describe the utilization of healthcare resources in subjects with mild asthma during the 6- month observational period

    Number and type of tests and exams per subject

    Measured: 6-months period

  20. To describe the utilization of healthcare resources in subjects with mild asthma during the 6- month observational period

    Duration of Inward/Day-hospital hospitalizations

    Measured: 6-months period

  21. To describe the subjects' quality of life by means of the Mini Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (MiniAQLQ) during the 6-month observational period

    MiniAQLQ scores. The MiniAQLQ is a 7-point Likert scale (7 = not impaired at all - 1 = severely impaired) and scores range 1-7, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.

    Measured: At enrolment and at 6-month

  22. To describe the occurrence of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in subjects with mild asthma during the 6-month observational period.

    Only Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) to any asthma medication occurred during the 6-month observational period will be collected

    Measured: 6-month
