Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluating Long Acting Beta Agonists Used to Treat Asthma Among Those With Either Arg/Arg or Gly/Gly Genotypes (NCT NCT00521222)

NCT ID: NCT00521222

Last Updated: 2023-04-21

Results Overview

Absolute change in morning peak flow at the end of the 16-week study period compared with baseline (last two weeks of run-in). Peak flow measurement is a test to measure air flowing out of the lung.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 16 weeks from baseline

Asthma symptom score measures asthma symptoms on a scale from 0 to 3. 0 = No asthma symptoms; 1 = 1-3 asthma episodes each lasting 2 hours or less, all mild; 2= 4 or more asthma episodes that interfered with activity, play, school, or sleep for less than 2 hours; 3= 1 or more asthma episodes lasting longer than 2 hours, or resulting in shortening normal activity, or seeing a doctor, or going to a hospital. A higher score indicates a worse outcome.
