NCT ID: NCT01103349

Last Updated: 2022-05-31

Results Overview

Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) % predicted trough change from baseline (mean observed in the 2 weeks prior to treatment) after 6 weeks of treatment, where trough FEV1 % predicted was defined as the mean of the FEV1 % predicted trough values at 25 minutes and 10 minutes prior to dosing on clinic visit. MMRM in the statistical test comments is Mixed effects model with repeated measures.

Participant Flow

This was a Phase IIa, multicentre, multinational, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to assess the efficacy and safety of oral BI 671800 ED 400 mg b.i.d., montelukast 10 mg q.d., or placebo in symptomatic asthma patients on Fluticasone propionate Hydrofluoralkane Metered Dose Inhaler (100μg b.i.d.).

Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were to be entered in the study. All subjects were free to withdraw from the clinical trial at any time for any reason given. Close monitoring of all subjects was adhered to throughout the trial conduct. Rescue medication was allowed for all subjects as required.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Measurements at baseline (mean observed in the 2 weeks prior to treatment) and at week 6 of treatment.

Population: Statistical analysis was performed on randomized patients who received at least one dose of treatment and had both baseline and the post-baseline measurement at 6 weeks for the primary efficacy variable.

Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) % predicted trough change from baseline (mean observed in the 2 weeks prior to treatment) after 6 weeks of treatment, where trough FEV1 % predicted was defined as the mean of the FEV1 % predicted trough values at 25 minutes and 10 minutes prior to dosing on clinic visit.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Measurements at baseline (mean ACQ score obtained at Week 0) and at week 6 of treatment.

Population: Statistical analysis was performed on randomized patients who received at least one dose of treatment and had both baseline and the post-baseline measurement at 6 weeks for the primary efficacy variable.

Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) mean score change from baseline (mean ACQ score obtained at Week 0) after six weeks of treatment. The Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) is a patient-reported outcome questionnaire containing 7 items. The items are equally weighted and the ACQ score is the mean of the 7 items and therefore between 0 (well controlled) and 6 (extremely poorly controlled) These questions based on recall of the previous 7 days comprise breathlessness, nocturnal waking, symptoms on waking, activity limitation, wheeze, frequency of Short-acting beta-adrenergic (SABA) use, and categorized pre-bronchodilator FEV1% predicted.
