About this study

Official title: A Study to Assess the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of AZD8630, Administered Once Daily Via Inhalation, for 2 Weeks, in Adults With Asthma on Medium-to-high Dose Inhaled Corticosteroids and Long-acting Beta-agonists

This is a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, sponsor-unblinded study to assess the safety, pharmacokinetic (PK), and pharmacodynamic (PD) effect of AZD8630 in adult participants with asthma on medium-to-high dose inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and long-acting beta-agonists (LABA).

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, PK, and PD of AZD8630 compared to placebo in participants with asthma and elevated fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) on a combination of medium-to-high dose ICS and LABA medications.

The study will comprise of:

  • A Screening/Enrollment Period of up to 14 to 28 days before dosing.
  • A Treatment Period/End of Treatment Visit. On Day 1, participants will be randomised to AZD8630 or corresponding placebo. Study intervention will be self-administered once daily up to Day 14. Participants will return to the study site for clinical and safety assessments on Day 7 and clinical and safety assessments and PK sampling on Day 14.
  • A Follow-up Visit 1 week after last dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing AZD8630 and Saphira device in people with Asthma, run by AstraZeneca at 3 sites in Germany.

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 13 inclusion and 36 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 3 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 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?

Number of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) (time frame: From Screening (Day -28) to Follow up (Day 21)). The study lists 4 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 3 Oct 2025.
