Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of Omalizumab in the Prevention of Allergen Induced Airway Obstruction in Adults With Mild Allergic Asthma (NCT NCT00434434)

NCT ID: NCT00434434

Last Updated: 2022-12-14

Results Overview

The primary analysis included two tests: a test for superiority of the lyophilized formulation of omalizumab compared with placebo in the change of allergen concentration and a test for the superiority of the aged liquid omalizumab compared with placebo. The difference for the change in the allergen concentration between the lyophilized formulation of omalizumab and placebo, and between the aged liquid omalizumab and placebo were assessed by the exact Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From baseline to Week 16

Population: Modified intent-to-treat (ITT) population

The primary analysis included two tests: a test for superiority of the lyophilized formulation of omalizumab compared with placebo in the change of allergen concentration and a test for the superiority of the aged liquid omalizumab compared with placebo. The difference for the change in the allergen concentration between the lyophilized formulation of omalizumab and placebo, and between the aged liquid omalizumab and placebo were assessed by the exact Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From baseline to Week 16

Population: Modified ITT population

FEV1 is the volume exhaled during the first second of a forced expiratory maneuver started from the level of total lung capacity, measured in liters. The allergen FEV1 two-point slope is defined as the final percent change in FEV1 from pre-challenge value divided by the final value of allergen concentration used in the challenge.
