Brief Summary

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

A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, pilot study in parallel groups to assess the efficacy and safety of XC8 at a dose of 100 mg versus placebo over a 12-week treatment period in non-smoking patients with a confirmed bronchial asthma (BA) and the eosinophil blood level 2 times within 1 week interval of ≥ 300 cells/μl.

Study design was developed by Chemlmmune Therapeutics LLC, Russia in cooperation with Eurrus Biotech GmbH, Austria.

Detailed Description

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

The study consists of 3 periods: screening (2 weeks), treatment period (12 weeks) and follow-up (2 weeks). All eligible patients are randomized into one of two treatment groups in a ratio of 1:1. During the study patients will continue to receive stable doses of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) with or without the long-acting β2-agonists; when required, patients will receive short-acting β2-agonists.The randomized patients will be stratified by the site, baseline forced expiratory volume (FEV1) in the range of 55 to 70% and 71% to 85%, and therapy of BA (inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) with or without long-acting β2 agonists).

The Study drug is produced by Hennig Arzneimittel GmbH und Co., Germany.
