Trial overview
Official title: A multicenter, randomized, single blind, active controlled, parallel group study to determine efficacy and safety of nebulized fluticasone propionate 1mg BID compared with nebulized budesonide 2mg BID administered for 12 weeks in Chinese adult and adolescent patients with severe persistent asthma
Trial description: This is a multicentre, randomized, single-blind, active-controlled, parallel-group phase III local registration study for a treatment period of 12 weeks. This study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of fluticasone propionate 1mg via nebulizer BID in treatment of Chinese adult and adolescent patients with severe persistent asthma for a treatment period of 12 weeks versus budesonide 2mg via nebulizer BID. The steady-state plasma pharmacokinetics of fluticasone propionate inhalation solution will also be assessed.

Accepts healthy volunteers
No
- Chinese male or female outpatients aged >=17 years and <=70 years
- A female is eligible to enter and participate in this study if she is:
- History of Life-threatening asthma: Defined for this protocol as an asthma episode that required intubation and/or was associated with hypercapnea, respiratory arrest or hypoxic seizures.
- Bacterial or viral infection of the upper or lower respiratory tract, sinus or middle ear that is not resolved within 4 weeks of visit 1 and led to a change in asthma management or, in the opinion of the investigator, is expected to affect the subject’s asthma status or the subject’s ability to participate in the study.
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Chinese male or female outpatients aged >=17 years and <=70 years
- A female is eligible to enter and participate in this study if she is: Non-childbearing potential (i.e. physiologically incapable of becoming pregnant, including any female who is pre-menarchal, post-menopausal), or Child-bearing potential, has a negative urinary pregnancy test at screening and agrees to take contraceptive precautions (including abstinence) (referring to appendix 1: Highly Effective Methods For Avoidance Of Pregnancy In Women Of Childbearing Potential) which, in the opinion of the investigator are adequate to prevent pregnancy during the study.
- A documented clinical history of asthma for a period of at least 12 weeks prior to Visit 1 based on the Guidance of Asthma Management and Prevention 2008 in China (refer to appendix 2).
- Demonstrated >=12% and >=200mL reversibility of FEV1 within 15-30minutes following inhalation of 200-400ug of salbutamol aerosol within 12 months prior to visit 1 or at the Screening Visit.
- Subjects have pre-bronchodilator FEV1% predicted between >=40% and <80% at visit 1.
- Subjects on a stable dose at least 2 weeks with high dose ICS (eg. Fluticasone Propionate 500ug twice daily or other ICS with equivalence doses, refer to Appendix 3) or moderate dose ICS plus LABA (eg. Fluticasone Propionate/Salmoterol 250/50ug , twice daily; or Budesonide/Formoterol Fumarate in maintainance160/4.5ug, two inhalation, twice daily; or other product equivalence doses).
