Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of reslizumab in the treatment of subjects with poorly controlled asthma.

Detailed Description

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

Objectives:

Primary: To demonstrate the ability of reslizumab to improve asthma control in subjects with active asthma and eosinophilic airway inflammation.

Secondary:

* To study the ability of reslizumab to reduce induced sputum eosinophil (EOS) counts in subjects with asthma.
* To study the ability of reslizumab to reduce the number of eosinophilic clinical asthma exacerbations (CAE) in subjects with asthma. A CAE is defined as a ≥ 20% decrease in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1; absolute value) from the baseline value or a requirement for emergency treatment of asthma, hospital admission for asthma or treatment with three or more days of oral corticosteroids (OCS) for asthma worsening.
* To assess the safety and tolerability of reslizumab in subjects with asthma.
