Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate the Onset of Effect and Time Course of Change in Lung Function With Benralizumab in Severe, Uncontrolled Asthma Patients With Eosinophilic Inflammation (NCT NCT02869438)

NCT ID: NCT02869438

Last Updated: 2019-10-29

Results Overview

The average over the mean differences between benralizumab and placebo for change from baseline in pre-BD FEV1 is used to determine if the study is positive and to determine maintenance of effect. The first post baseline time point where the p-value for the mean difference between benralizumab and placebo is less than or equal to 0.05 is used to determine time to onset of effect.

Participant Flow

233 participants were randomized to receive treatment in study D3250C00038 (Solana) with benralizumab 30 mg or placebo. Of the 233 patients randomised, all (100.0%) received treatment with study drug. 118 (50.6%) patients received benralizumab 30 mg and 115 (49.4%) patients received placebo.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From first IP dose to Day 84

Population: Full analysis set

The average over the mean differences between benralizumab and placebo for change from baseline in pre-BD FEV1 is used to determine if the study is positive and to determine maintenance of effect. The first post baseline time point where the p-value for the mean difference between benralizumab and placebo is less than or equal to 0.05 is used to determine time to onset of effect.

ACQ-6 contains one bronchodilator question and 5 symptom questions. Questions are rated from 0 (totally controlled) to 6 (severely uncontrolled). Mean ACQ-6 score is the average of the responses. Mean scores of \<=0.75 indicates well-controlled asthma, scores between 0.75 to \<=1.5 indicate partly controlled asthma, and \>1.5 indicates not well controlled asthma.

The SGRQ is designed to measure health impairment in patients with asthma and COPD. It contains two parts: Part 1 (Questions 1 to 8) covers the patients' recollection of their symptoms over a preceding 4 weeks; Part 2, 42 items, relates to the daily activity and psychosocial impacts of the individual's respiratory condition. Total score is presented as a percentage of overall impairment, in which 100 represents the worst possible health status, while 0 indicates the best.

Clinician global impression of change (CGI-C) is used for an overall evaluation of response to treatment. The investigator is asked to rate the degree of change in overall asthma status compare to the start of treatment. A 7-point rating scale is used from 1=very much improved to 7=very much worse.
