Trial overview
Official title: A randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, two period crossover study to characterise the exhaled nitric oxide time profile as a biomarker of airway inflammation in adult asthma patients following repeat administration of inhaled Fluticasone Furoate (FF)/ Vilanterol (VI) 100/25 mcg.
Trial description: For asthmatic subjects, a combination of inhaled corticosteroid (FF) and long-acting beta2 receptor agonist (VI) is recommended for use (once daily) and fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is a non-invasive airway inflammation marker.In this randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled, two-period, crossover repeat dose study, the duration of action of fluticasone furoate (FF) will be determined by monitoring the return of FeNO levels to baseline, following the treatment with FF/vilanetrol (VI) in asthmatic subjects.Subjects who meet the eligibility criteria will participate in the following two treatment periods: FF/VI 100/25 mcg once-daily and placebo once-daily. Approximately 28 subjects will be enrolled in order to achieve 24 evaluable subjects. A 2-week treatment period will be followed by a 21-day monitoring/washout period before crossing over to the next treatment period. Total duration of each subject will be a maximum of 21 weeks. FeNO will be monitored up to 21 days after treatment with FF/VI together with FEV1 (up to 7 days).

- Age of subject: Between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
- A doctor diagnosis of asthma for at least 6 months prior to the start of the study.
- A history of life-threatening asthma, which is defined as an asthma episode that required intubation and/or was associated with hypercapnia, respiratory arrest or hypoxic seizures within the last 5 years
- Other significant pulmonary diseases to include (but not limited to): pneumonia, pneumothorax, atelectasis, pulmonary fibrotic disease, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or other respiratory abnormalities other than asthma.
Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
- Age of subject: Between 18 and 65 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
- A doctor diagnosis of asthma for at least 6 months prior to the start of the study.
- Severity of disease: A screening pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) >=60% of predicted values, which will be based upon NHANES III
- Reversibility of disease: Demonstrated presence of reversible airway disease at screening (repeat testing of eligibility can be undertaken following the screening visit up to Day -7) OR The presence of reversible airways disease can have been demonstrated historically within 6 months of the screening visit. Reversible airway disease is defined as increase in FEV1 of >=12% over baseline and an absolute change of >=200 mL within 30 minutes following 4 inhalations of albuterol/salbutamol inhalation aerosol/spacer (or equivalent nebulised treatment with albuterol/salbutamol solution).
- Current Therapy: Short-acting beta2-agonists (SABA) prescribed for at least 12 weeks prior to screening. No inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), long-actint beta2-receptor agonist (LABA), long acting muscarinic anatagonist (LAMA), leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) therapy for three months prior to the start of the study.
- Non-smoker or ex-smoker (no smoking in previous 12 weeks, ≤10 pack years).
- Screening and Day -7 AM fraction of inhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) values > 40ppb. Both screening and Day -7 AM FeNO values for treatment Period 1 need to be > 40ppb for the subject to be eligible.
- Bodyweight and BMI: Bodyweight >=50 kg and body mass index (BMI) within the range 18.0 40.0 kg/m2 (inclusive)
- Male OR Female:
- Females: A female subject is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant (as confirmed by a negative urine human chorionic gonadotrophin [hCG[ test), not lactating, and at least one of the following conditions applies: Non-reproductive potential defined as:
- Pre-menopausal females reporting one of the following: Tubal ligation Hysteroscopic tubal occlusion procedure with follow-up confirmation of bilateral tubal occlusion Hysterectomy Bilateral Oophorectomy
- Postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea (in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone [FSH] and estradiol levels consistent with menopause [refer to laboratory reference ranges for confirmatory levels]). Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the highly effective contraception methods if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrolment.
