About this study

Official title: A 26 Week, Randomized, Double Blind, Multinational, Multicenter, Active Controlled, 2-arm Parallel Group Trial Comparing CHF 5993 100/6/12.5 μg pMDI (Fixed Combination of Extrafine Formulation of Beclometasone Dipropionate Plus Formoterol Fumarate Plus Glycopyrronium Bromide) to CHF 1535 200/6 μg pMDI (Fixed Combination of Extrafine Formulation of Beclometasone Dipropionate Plus Formoterol Fumarate) in Subjects With Asthma Uncontrolled on Medium Doses of Inhaled Corticosteroids in Combination With Long-Acting β2-Agonists.

The purpose of this phase IV Study is to compare the efficacy of CHF5993 (BDP/FF/GB 100/6/12.5 pMDI) on uncontrolled asthma subjects, versus CHF1535 (BDP/FF 200/6 pMDI).

The open label extension part aims to assess the proportion of subjects whose asthma remains or becomes adequately controlled..

Read the detailed description

The study consists in two phases:

The study population includes 1400 subjects that are randomly assigned to two treatment arms. Each participant will be followed for 26 weeks to assess the efficacy of CHF5993 (BDP/FF/GB 100/6/12.5 pMDI).

The study population of the extension part includes 800 subjects who opt to enroll into this extension and receive either CHF5993 (BDP/FF/GB 100/6/12.5 pMDI) or CHF5993 (BDP/FF/GB 200/6/12.5 pMDI) depending on their asthma control status at the end of the main phase.

What is being measured

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

  1. Main phase: Proportion of subjects exhibiting No Persistent Airflow Limitation (NPAL) on average over 26 weeks of treatment in the study sub-population with Persistent Airflow Limitation (PAL) status at screening

    Proportion of subjects exhibiting on average No Persistent Airflow Limitation (NPAL) status over 26 weeks of treatment in the study sub-population meeting Persistent Airflow Limitation (PAL) status at screening. A subject is defined as PAL at screening if post-bronchodilator (salbutamol) FEV1/FVC ratio is < 0.7. A subject is defined as NPAL during the treatment period if the mean of their 2 hour post-dose FEV1/FVC ratio collected during the treatment period is ≥ 0.7

    Measured: Over 26 weeks of treatment

  2. Open-label extension phase: Proportion of subjects that remains or becomes "Adequately Controlled" at the end of the Open-Label extension phase

    Proportion of subjects that remains or becomes "Adequately Controlled" at the end of the Open-Label extension phase (i.e. Week 50), after the assignment to either MS CHF5993 (BDP/FF/GB 100/6/12.5 pMDI) or HS CHF5993 (BDP/FF/GB 200/6/12.5 pMDI) according to their asthma control status ('Controlled' vs 'Uncontrolled') at the end of MiSTIC main phase (week 26)

    Measured: Over 24 weeks of treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change from baseline in pre-dose FEV1 at Week 26 in the study sub-population meeting PAL criterion at screening

    Measured: Over 26 weeks of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Administration via pressurized metered dose inhaler (pMDI) in people with Asthma, run by Chiesi Farmaceutici S.p.A. at 1 site in Hungary.

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 29 inclusion and 39 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Nov 2024. 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 Hungary. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 stopped early (reason given: The study was prematurely stopped due to extensive challenges in patient recruitment. The Sponsor issued a notification of early study termination to all investigational sites and all external stakeholders.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Main phase: Proportion of subjects exhibiting No Persistent Airflow Limitation (NPAL) on average over 26 weeks of treatment in the study sub-population with Persistent Airflow Limitation (PAL) status at screening (time frame: Over 26 weeks of treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Nov 2024.
