Brief Summary

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

The combination of asthma and being a carrier of genetic variants (mutations and / or polymorphisms) in the CFTR gene variant would cause bronchial asthma with mucus hypersecretion. This phenotype is characterized by a more severe disease, in terms of control, quality of life, exacerbations and lung function, and a different asthma the bronchial hypersecretion without inflammatory phenotype.

Detailed Description

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

Primary objective:

Determine the presence of genetic variants (mutations and / or polymorphisms) of the CFTR gene in patients with asthma with or without bronchial mucus hypersecretion.

Secondary objectives:

To identify genetic variants (mutations and / or polymorphisms) of the most common CFTR gene in the asthmatic population. -To define the inflammatory phenotype of asthma with bronchial mucus hypersecretion. -To compare the severity, control, quality of life and frequency of exacerbations of asthma patients with or without bronchial mucus hypersecretion

Study Groups

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

50 asthma patients

50 asthma patients with bronchial mucus hypersecretion

Asthma patients

Intervention Type GENETIC

Patients with inclusion criteria, following examinations: a study of lung function measurement of the fraction of nitric oxide in exhaled air, induced sputum, sputum, and extraction of peripheral venous blood for Study of genetic variants in the CFTR gene,skin prick test . The number of eosinophils in peripheral blood by automated cell counting and Total IgE by ELISA were measured. Furthermore, the level of asthma control be assessed by validated symptom questionnaire Asthma Control Test, quality of life is determined by the MiniAQLQ questionnaire.
