Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The researchers propose to study the airways of asthmatics given TPI ASM8 for 14 days, and examine the protective effects on allergen-induced bronchoconstriction, hyperresponsiveness and airway inflammation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Early and late asthmatic responses were attenuated by ASM8 and by placebo solution.Methacholine challenge was not affected by study medication. Other parameters were unchanged.
