Study on the Effectiveness and Safety of AZD4604 for Adults with Moderate-to-Severe Asthma Uncontrolled on Medium-High Dose ICS-LABA

2 1

What is this study about?

This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a new treatment for asthma, specifically in adults who have moderate to severe asthma that is not well controlled with their current medication. The treatment being tested is called AZD4604, which is administered as an inhalation powder. The study aims to evaluate how effective and safe AZD4604 is when taken twice daily over a period of twelve weeks.

Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either AZD4604 or a placebo. The study is designed to be double-blind, meaning neither the participants nor the researchers will know who is receiving the actual treatment or the placebo. This helps ensure that the results are unbiased. The main goal is to see if AZD4604 can improve asthma symptoms and reduce the frequency of asthma attacks compared to the placebo.

Throughout the study, participants will have regular check-ups to monitor their asthma symptoms and overall health. The study will track changes in lung function and asthma control over the twelve-week period. By the end of the study, researchers hope to gather valuable information about the potential benefits of AZD4604 for people with moderate to severe asthma.

1 joining the study

Upon joining the study, eligibility is confirmed based on specific criteria such as age, asthma severity, and treatment history.

Participants must be between 18 and 80 years old and have a documented history of moderate-to-severe asthma that is not well controlled with current medication.

2 run-in period

During this period, participants continue their usual asthma medication to ensure stability before starting the trial treatment.

Compliance with medication and study requirements is monitored through electronic assessments.

3 randomization and treatment

Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the study medication, AZD4604, or a placebo.

The medication is administered as an inhalation powder, taken twice daily for a duration of twelve weeks.

4 treatment monitoring

Throughout the twelve-week treatment period, participants’ lung function and asthma symptoms are regularly assessed.

Key assessments include lung function tests and symptom questionnaires at weeks 4 and 12.

5 end of treatment

At the end of the treatment period, final assessments are conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the medication.

Participants’ experiences and any changes in asthma symptoms are documented.

  • Patients who have other serious health conditions that could interfere with the study.
  • Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Patients who have had a recent asthma attack that required hospitalization.
  • Patients who are currently using other medications that might affect the study results.
  • Patients who have a history of not following medical advice or treatment plans.
  • Patients who have participated in another clinical trial recently.
  • Patients who have allergies to the study medication or its ingredients.
  • Patients who have a history of drug or alcohol abuse.

Trial locations

AZD4604 is an investigational medication being studied for its potential to help adults with moderate to severe asthma that is not well controlled with their current treatment. This medication is taken twice daily and is being evaluated for its effectiveness and safety over a period of twelve weeks. The goal of the study is to see if AZD4604 can improve asthma symptoms and overall lung function in patients who are already using medium to high doses of inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta-agonists.

Investigated Diseases:

Asthma – Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to difficulty in breathing. It often presents with symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. The severity of asthma can vary, with some individuals experiencing mild symptoms and others having more severe episodes. In moderate-to-severe cases, asthma may not be well-controlled even with the use of medium to high doses of inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta-agonists. This can result in frequent exacerbations, where symptoms worsen significantly and may require additional medical attention. The progression of asthma involves periods of symptom flare-ups and remissions, influenced by various triggers such as allergens, exercise, and respiratory infections.
