Brief Summary

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

This study is designed to show that pharmacotherapy guided by eNO and clinical standard of care produces a superior outcome to trial-based therapy guided by clinical standard of care alone.

Detailed Description

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

Patients with persistent, moderate to severe asthma will be randomized to receive therapy guided by either eNO and clinical standard of care (eNO group) or clinical standard of care (control group). An eNO treatment algorithm will be established for each patient in the eNO group at Baseline (Visit 1). Enrollment is estimated to be six months with a follow up period of twelve months.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

eNO group

eNO measurement is used to inform asthma management decisions

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Apieron Insight eNO monitor

Intervention Type DEVICE

The Apieron Insight(tm) eNO monitor is used to measure exhaled nitric oxide, and asthma is managed to keep eNO below an individualized target.

control group

Asthma is managed according to existing standard of care

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
