About this study

Official title: Dupilumab Efficacy on Bronchial Inflammation, Small Airways Disfunction and Mucous Secretion in the Real Life Severe Asthma Patients

Unicentric prospective real life study designed to analyse the efficacy of Dupilumab to reduce bronchial inflammation of asthma measured by inflammatory cell counts obtained in induced sputum and other related characteristics (small airway dysfunction and mucin production) in uncontrolled severe asthma patients in the real life setting without control group

Read the detailed description

After patients signed informed consent, before (visit 1), after 4-5 months (visit 2), and after 12 months (visit 3) Dupilumab treatment began, the following techniques and measurements will be performed or collected: demographic data, blood analyses (eosinophil counts and total IgE), skin prick-test to common aeroallergens (only in the visit 1), asthma control test (ACT), sino-nasal outcome test (SNOT-22), test of adherence to inhalers (TAI), number of severe asthma exacerbations (in the previous year; in the visit 2, in the previous 4 months), oral and inhaled steroid daily doses received, spirometry, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), pulmonary volumes, carbon monoxide transference, oscillometry, and induced sputum (inflammatory cell counts and mucin profile [MUC1, MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC5B]). All patients will be performed at visits 1 and 3 in a 3D culture of primary nasal epithelial cells from asthmatic patients the pattern of gene and to identify new soluble biomarkers through quantitative proteomic analysis of culture supernatants.

Also a chest CT scan with expiratory images will be done only in visits 1 and 3.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Asthma; Eosinophilic, run by Fundació Institut de Recerca de l'Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Oct 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 Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of bronchial inflammatory cells (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT05787678, which also lists 15 linked publications.

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 4 Oct 2024.
