Brief Summary

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

During this proposed clinical trial, the investigators intend to evaluate the pharmacodynamic anti-inflammatory properties and safety of TPI ASM8, by investigating the effect on sputum eosinophils and the airway responses during an allergen challenge at different dose levels.

Detailed Description

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

The early and late asthmatic response were both significantly attenuated by the highest dose of ASM8. The methacholine challenge and other parameters (ECP, mRNA knockdown on CCR3 and B-Chain of IL-3-Il-5 and GMCSF were attenuated by ASM8.
