What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Trough Forced Expiratoty Volume in 1 Second (FEV1)

    Change from baseline in pre-dose trough FEV1 after 2 weeks of treatment with indacaterol acetate 75 μg o.d and 150 μg o.d.

    The primary endpoint is change from baseline in pre-dose trough FEV1 (mL) after 2 weeks of treatment. The pre-dose trough FEV1 (mL) is defined as the mean of the two FEV1 (mL), values measured at -45 min and -15 min pre-dose.

    Measured: 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Systemic Exposure to Indacaterol in Plasma

    Systemic exposure to indacaterol in plasma following sparse pharmacokinetic (PK) sampling on Day 1 and Day 14 after inhalation of indacaterol acetate 75 μg and 150 μg.

    Measured: day 1, day 14

  2. Asthma Control as Assessed by Pediatric Interviewer-administered Asthma Control Questionnaire

    Asthma Control as assessed by pediatric interviewer-administered Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-IA) score at week 2 (mean change). A decrease in the score shows an improvement.

    The scale ranges from 0 (no symptoms) to 6 (severe symptoms every day). Results are given as a change as compared from baseline

    Measured: 2 weeks

  3. Pre-dose Morning and Evening Peak Expiratoty Flow (PEF)

    Pre-dose morning and evening PEF over 2 weeks of treatment as determined by electronic peak flow meter data (mean change)

    Measured: 2 weeks

  4. Rescue Medication Usage (Mean Daiily Number of Puffs)

    Rescue medication usage over 2 weeks of treatment as determined by patient diary data for indacaterol acetate 75 μg and 150 μg o.d.Results given as mean change of puffs of rescue medication.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  5. Rescue Medication Usage (Percentage of Rescue Medication Free Days)

    Rescue medication usage over 2 weeks of treatment as determined by patient diary data for indacaterol acetate 75 μg and 150 μg o.d.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  6. Forced Expiratoty Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) and Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)

    FEV1 and FVC at 30 minutes and 1-hour post dose at week 2 for indacaterol acetate 75 μg and 150 μg o.d.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  7. Symptoms as Recorded by Patient E-diary (Mean Total Daily Symptom Score)

    Symptoms as recorded by patient e-diary for indacaterol acetate 75 μg and 150 μg o.d. (mean change) The scale rages from 0 (no problem) - 4 (very severe problems).

    Measured: 2 weeks

  8. Symptoms as Recorded by Patient E-diary (Percentage of Asthma Symptoms Free Days)

    Symptoms as recorded by patient e-diary for indacaterol acetate 75 μg and 150 μg o.d. (mean change)

    Measured: 2 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Indacaterol acetate 75 μg and Indacaterol acetate 150 μg in people with Asthma, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 29 sites in 11 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 27 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in Hungary, South Africa, Germany, Guatemala, Philippines and 6 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 27 Jan 2020). 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?

Trough Forced Expiratoty Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 NCT02892019, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Jan 2020.
