Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Trial of Mepolizumab Adjunctive Therapy for the Prevention of Asthma Exacerbations in Urban Children (NCT NCT03292588)

NCT ID: NCT03292588

Last Updated: 2022-07-20

Results Overview

Exacerbations were defined as a prescription of a course of systemic corticosteroids by a clinician, initiation of a course of systemic corticosteroids by a participant, or as a hospitalization for asthma. If a participant initiated and completed a course of systemic corticosteroids without clinician involvement, this course was counted only if the study clinician agreed the treatment was warranted, and it met the following dosage: the course for prednisone, prednisolone, or methylprednisolone was at least 20 mg daily dose for 3 of 5 consecutive days. The course for dexamethasone was at least a 10 mg single daily dose. If a corticosteroid burst for the treatment of an asthma exacerbation was prescribed by a non-ICAC clinician, it was counted regardless of dose.

Mepolizumab
Intervention: Mepolizumab plus guidelines-based standard of care asthma treatment. Mepolizumab: Mepolizumab administered every 4 weeks by subcutaneous injection at a dose of: * 100 mg for participants ≥12 years of age and * 40 mg for participants ages 6 to 11 years and weighing ≥40 kg. Note: Participants 6 to 11 years of age and weighing ≥40 kg who were enrolled in the study under previous versions of the protocol and were initially assigned a 100 mg dose will have their dose reduced to 40 mg. Participants 11 years of age will increase to the 100 mg dose if they become age 12 years during the study.
Placebo
Intervention: Placebo for mepolizumab plus guidelines-based standard of care asthma treatment. Placebo: Placebo administered every 4 weeks by subcutaneous injection at a dose of: * 100 mg for participants ≥12 years of age and * 40 mg for participants ages 6 to 11 years and weighing ≥40 kg. Note: Participants 6 to 11 years of age and weighing ≥40 kg who were enrolled in the study under previous versions of the protocol and were initially assigned a 100 mg dose will have their dose reduced to 40 mg.

Composite Asthma Severity Index (CASI) scores included 5 domains: day symptoms and albuterol use, night symptoms and albuterol use, controller treatment, lung function measures, and exacerbations. The minimum composite score was 0 while the maximum was 20. The higher the score the more allergy symptoms a subject has.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 56

Population: All participants who were randomized and received at least one dose of study treatment and completed the quality of life questionnaire at visit 14.

The Physician Global Assessment Tool was used to assess the quality of life of the subjects during treatment. The questionnaire is one question that asks the physician to evaluate how the participant's quality of life changed over the course of treatment. There are seven possible options ranging from significantly worse to significantly improved.

A Cox PH model was also used to model the time to first asthma exacerbation during the treatment period. The Cox PH model included treatment arm as the primary exposure but was also adjusted for study site, number of exacerbations in year prior to study (2 or 3+), peripheral blood eosinophils (above or below 400 cells/μl), BMI (above or below 95th percentile for age) and total serum IgE (above or below 540 kUA/L).
