A Phase 2 interventional study of Tiotropium bromide and tiotropium bromide in Asthma, sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim. Completed at 19 sites in 5 countries. Open to participants aged 12 Years to 17 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2014-05-16.
Sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim · Phase 2, Interventional, and Treatment
The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tiotropium 1.25 mcg (2 actuations of 0.625 mcg), tiotropium 2.5 mcg (2 actuations of 1.25 mcg) and tiotropium 5 mcg (2 actuations of 2.5 mcg) once daily in the evening delivered by the Respimat inhaler in adolescents (12 to 17 yrs) with moderate persistent asthma, compared to placebo and on top of maintenance therapy with an inhaled corticosteroid controller medication. It is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II trial with incomplete cross-over design. Patients need to be still symptomatic, i. e. not fully controlled with their maintenance treatment.

Forced Expiratory Volume (FEV1) Peak (0-3h) Response
The FEV1 peak (0-3h) response is determined at the end of the 4 week treatment period. This is the difference between the maximum FEV1 measured within the first 3 hours post dosing and the FEV1 baseline measurement. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
Trough FEV1 Response
The trough FEV1 is defined as the pre-dose FEV1 measured just prior to the last administration of randomised treatment. Response was defined as the change from baseline. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
FEV1 Area Under the Curve From 0 to 3 h (AUC0-3h) Response
FEV1 (AUC0-3h) will be calculated as the area under the curve from 0 to 3hours using the trapezoidal rule divided by the observation time (3 hours) to report in litres. Response was defined as the change from baseline. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
FEV1 Individual Measurements Response at Each Time-point
Individual FEV1 measurements at each time-point ("personal best"). Response was defined as the change from baseline. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks (10 min pre-dose, 30 min, 1,2,3 hours post-dose)
Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) Peak (0-3h) Response
The FVC peak (0-3h) response is determined at the end of the 4 week treatment period. This is the difference between the maximum FVC measured within the first 3 hours post dosing and the FVC baseline measurement. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
FVC Trough Response
The trough FVC response is defined as the pre-dose FVC measured just prior to the last administration of randomised treatment. Response was defined as the change from baseline. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks
FVC Area Under the Curve From 0 to 3 h (AUC0-3h) Response

Forced Expiratory Flow (FEF) 25-75% Individual Measurements Response at Each Time Point
FEF 25-75% is the mean forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of the FVC determined at the end of the 4-week treatment period. This is often referred to as the maximum midexpiratory flow. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and 4 weeks (10 min pre-dose, 30 min, 1,2,3 hours post-dose)

Control of Asthma as Assessed by Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ)
ACQ is a questionnaire consisting of a seven point Likert scale ranging from 0 to 6, whereby 0 represents good control and 6 represents poor control of asthma. The scale describes the frequency and severity of asthma symptoms. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: 4 weeks
Change From Baseline in Mean Number of Nighttime Awakenings
Mean number of nighttime awakenings due to asthma symptoms as assessed by patients eDiary incorporated in the AM3® device. Analysis adjusted for treatment, period, patient and baseline using a mixed model.
Time frame: Baseline and last week of treatment (week 4)
In this incomplete crossover design, 105 patients were randomised to one of four sequences (in general terms, ABC, BDA, CAD or DCB). Whilst there were 4 possible treatments, A, B, C and D, each patient would receive a maximum of 3 different treatments. Hence, approximately 75 patients would receive each of A, B, C and D at any timepoint.
