What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Change at Day 92 From Baseline in Mean Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) Scores (Intent-toTreat Analysis)
Change at Day 92 from baseline (Day 1, prior to dosing) in mean ACQ scores in pariticpants receiving 30, 100, or 300 mg MEDI-528 versus placebo (Intent-to-Treat Analysis). The 6-item ACQ is a participant-reported questionnaire assessing asthma symptoms (night-time waking, symptoms on waking, activity limitation, shortness of breath, wheezing) and daily rescue bronchodilator use. Participants were asked to recall how their asthma had been during the previous week. Questions were weighted equally and scored from 0 (totally controlled) to 6 (severely uncontrolled). The mean ACQ score is the mean of the responses. Mean scores of ≤ 0.75 indicate well-controlled asthma, scores between 0.76 and < 1.5 indicate partly controlled asthma, and a score ≥ 1.5 indicates uncontrolled asthma. Individual changes of at least 0.5 are considered to be clinically meaningful.
Measured: Day 92
Secondary outcomes (20)
Weighted Asthma Exacerbation Rate Through Day 92 (Intent-to-Treat Analysis)
Weighted asthma exacerbation rate (total number of exacerbation rate in each group per total duration of participant-year follow-up in each group) between Day 1 and Day 92 in pariticpants receiving 30, 100, or 300 mg MEDI-528 versus placebo (Intent-to-Treat Analysis). An exacerbation was defined as a progressive increase of asthma symptoms AND a reduction of 20% or more in peak expiratory flow (PEF) or forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) from baseline (Day 1, prior to dosing) or best previously measured value prior to the current event that did not resolve after the initiation of rescue medications; and results in a prescription for/or administration of systemic corticosteroid burst therapy by the investigator or health care provider. An exacerbation event was considered resolved when the subject's asthma symptoms diminished and PEF or FEV1 return to greater than 80% of baseline for 7 or more days after completion of systemic corticosteroid burst therapy.
Measured: Days 1 - 92
Weighted Asthma Exacerbation Rate Through Day 176 (Intent-to-Treat Analysis)
Weighted asthma exacerbation rate (total number of exacerbation rate in each group per total duration of participant-year follow-up in each group) between Day 1 and Day 176 in pariticpants receiving 30, 100, or 300 mg MEDI-528 versus placebo (Intent-to-Treat Analysis). An exacerbation was defined as a progressive increase of asthma symptoms AND a reduction of 20% or more in peak expiratory flow (PEF) or forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) from baseline (Day 1, prior to dosing) or best previously measured value prior to the current event that did not resolve after the initiation of rescue medications; and results in a prescription for/or administration of systemic corticosteroid burst therapy by the investigator or health care provider. An exacerbation event was considered resolved when the subject's asthma symptoms diminished and PEF or FEV1 return to greater than 80% of baseline for 7 or more days after completion of systemic corticosteroid burst therapy.
Measured: Days 1 - 176
Proportion of Participants Experiencing at Least One Asthma Exacerbation Through Day 92 (Intent-to-Treat Analysis)

An exacerbation was defined as a progressive increase of asthma symptoms AND a reduction of 20% or more in peak expiratory flow (PEF) or forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) from baseline (Day 1, prior to dosing) or best previously measured value prior to the current event that did not resolve after the initiation of rescue medications; and results in a prescription for/or administration of systemic corticosteroid burst therapy by the investigator or health care provider. An exacerbation event was considered resolved when the subject's asthma symptoms diminished and PEF or FEV1 return to greater than 80% of baseline for 7 or more days after completion of systemic corticosteroid burst therapy.
Measured: Days 1 - 92
Proportion of Participants Experiencing at Least One Asthma Exacerbation Through Day 176 (Intent-to-Treat Analysis)
The proportion of participants that experienced at least one asthma exacerbation between Day 1 and Day 176 in pariticpants receiving 30, 100, or 300 mg MEDI-528 versus placebo (Intent-to-Treat Analysis). An exacerbation was defined as a progressive increase of asthma symptoms AND a reduction of 20% or more in peak expiratory flow (PEF) or forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) from baseline (Day 1, prior to dosing) or best previously measured value prior to the current event that did not resolve after the initiation of rescue medications; and results in a prescription for/or administration of systemic corticosteroid burst therapy by the investigator or health care provider.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.

Detailed description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of multiple-dose subcutaneous (SC) administration of MEDI-528 on asthma control in adults with uncontrolled, moderate-to-severe, persistent asthma.

Primary outcome
Change at Day 92 From Baseline in Mean Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) Scores (Intent-toTreat Analysis)
Time frame: Day 92
Change at Day 92 from baseline (Day 1, prior to dosing) in mean ACQ scores in pariticpants receiving 30, 100, or 300 mg MEDI-528 versus placebo (Intent-to-Treat Analysis). The 6-item ACQ is a participant-reported questionnaire assessing asthma symptoms (night-time waking, symptoms on waking, activity limitation, shortness of breath, wheezing) and daily rescue bronchodilator use. Participants were asked to recall how their asthma had been during the previous week. Questions were weighted equally and scored from 0 (totally controlled) to 6 (severely uncontrolled). The mean ACQ score is the mean of the responses. Mean scores of ≤ 0.75 indicate well-controlled asthma, scores between 0.76 and < 1.5 indicate partly controlled asthma, and a score ≥ 1.5 indicates uncontrolled asthma. Individual changes of at least 0.5 are considered to be clinically meaningful.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing MEDI528 30 mg, MEDI528 100 mg and MEDI528 300 mg in people with Asthma, run by MedImmune LLC at 57 sites in 10 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 23 inclusion and 30 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 57 sites in United States, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Peru and 5 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 4 Jun 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change at Day 92 From Baseline in Mean Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) Scores (Intent-toTreat Analysis) (time frame: Day 92). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00968669, which also lists 2 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Jun 2014.
