Trial overview
Official title: A multicentre, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group study to determine the efficacy and safety of nebulized fluticasone propionate 1mg twice daily compared with oral prednisone administered for 7 days to Chinese pediatric and adolescent subjects (aged 4 to 16 years) with an acute exacerbation of asthma
Trial description: This is a multicentre, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled, parallel-group study to determine the efficacy and safety of nebulized fluticasone propionate 1mg twice daily compared with oral prednisone administered for 7 days to Chinese pediatric and adolescent subjects (aged 4 to 16 years) with an acute exacerbation of asthma

- Inclusion Criteria:
- Chinese male and female pediatric or adolescent subjects aged 4 to 16 years, inclusive
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Inclusion Criteria:
- Chinese male and female pediatric or adolescent subjects aged 4 to 16 years, inclusive
- Subjects have an established diagnosis of asthma
- The definition of asthma. According to Chinese Guideline for the diagnosis and optimal management of asthma in children [Respiratory branch of pediatric society,Chinese Medical. Association. 2008, revised version], the subjects can be diagnosed when meeting the criteria. The diagnosis criteria is listed in the protocol.
- The severity of an acute exacerbation of asthma is defined as PEF of 50% to 75% predicted via a peak flow meter, with a clinical scoring index of ≥2. The clinical scoring index represents the sum of the score for each of four signs: respiratory rate (0=low to 3=high, dependent on age), wheezing (0=none to 3=severe), inspiration/expiration ratio (0=2:1 to 3=1:3), and accessory muscle (0=none to 3=marked use).
- Subjects can properly use a mini-wright peak flow meter, nebulizer and MDI with/without a spacer, and accurately complete a diary card with parental assistance, if required.
- Subjects’ parents/guardians are willing to give written informed consent. Exclusion criteria:
- Severe respiratory dysfunction.
- History of mechanical ventilation due to respiratory failure.
- Admission to hospital due to respiratory disease within the previous 2 weeks, including asthmatic exacerbations.
- Clinical or lab evidence of a serious, uncontrolled systemic disease or presence of any disease likely to interfere with the objectives of this study, such as pulmonary cystic fibrosis and bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
- Known or suspected hypersensitivity to glucocorticosteroids or β2 agonists.
- Clinical visual evidence of oral candidiasis at Visit1.
- Use of the medications below in Table 1 according to the following defined time intervals prior to presentation. The list is provided in the protocol.
