Study summary

This is a US study comparing the efficacy and safety of BDA MDI [Budesonide/Albuterol Sulfate (BDA) metered dose inhaler (MDI)] with AS [Albuterol Sulfate] MDI, both are administered as needed for up to 12 months.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase IIIb, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, event-driven, variable-length, decentralized study.

Participants from around 40 to 50 centers located in the US will be screened and randomized 1:1 to receive one of the following two treatments to be used as needed: BDA MDI (160/180 μg) and AS MDI (180 μg). Participants 12 years of age and older with asthma will be recruited with all visits conducted virtually.

Eligible participants must be using as-needed SABA (Short -acting β2agonist) alone, or as-needed SABA on a background of either low-dose ICS (Inhaled corticosteroid) or a LTRA (Leukotriene receptor agonist), for the treatment of asthma.

Participants will be stratified by pre-study asthma medication (SABA only, low-dose ICS + SABA and LTRA + SABA) and number of prior severe exacerbations (0, ≥1) in the 12 months prior to the Screening visit.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Time to First Severe Asthma Exacerbation, While on Treatment Strategy, Interim Analysis Data Cut-off (Participants Aged >=12 Years)

    The time to first severe asthma exacerbation was analyzed under the While on Treatment strategy in the Full analysis set (FAS) and was defined as the length in days from treatment initiation until the date of the first severe asthma exacerbation event. Participants were censored at treatment discontinuation, a step-up in maintenance therapy, or interim analysis DCO. An asthma exacerbation was considered severe if it resulted in at least one of the following: use of systemic steroids for at least 3 days, inpatient hospitalization due to asthma or emergency room visit that required systemic steroids, or death due to asthma. The primary outcome measure was analyzed at the interim analysis (22 April 2024). Since the primary objective was met at the interim analysis, it was not re-tested at final database lock. Since fewer than 50% of participants had an exacerbation event, the median survival time could not be calculated and instead the number of participants with an event is reported.

    Time frame: From treatment initiation until the earliest occurrence of study completion, treatment discontinuation, step-up in maintenance therapy, or interim analysis DCO, up to one year following treatment initiation.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Time to First Severe Asthma Exacerbation, Treatment Policy Strategy, Interim Analysis Data Cut-off (Participants Aged >=12 Years)

    The time to first severe asthma exacerbation was analyzed under the Treatment Policy strategy in the Full analysis set (FAS) and was defined as the length in days from treatment initiation until the date of first severe asthma exacerbation occurred. Participants were censored at study completion or withdrawal, or the interim analysis DCO. An asthma exacerbation was considered severe if it resulted in at least one of the following: use of systemic steroids for at least 3 days, inpatient hospitalization due to asthma or emergency room visit that required systemic steroids, or death due to asthma. The key secondary outcome measure was analyzed at the interim analysis (22 April 2024). Since the key secondary objective was met at the interim analysis, it was not re-tested at final database lock. Since fewer than 50% of participants had an exacerbation event, the median survival time could not be calculated and instead the number of participants with an event is reported.

    Time frame: From treatment initiation until the earliest occurrence of study completion or withdrawal only, regardless of treatment discontinuation, a step-up in maintenance therapy or interim analysis DCO, up to one year following treatment initiation.

  2. Time to First Severe Asthma Exacerbation, While on Treatment Strategy (Participants Aged >=18 Years)

Participants were censored at treatment discontinuation or a step-up in maintenance therapy. An asthma exacerbation was considered severe if it results in at least one of the following: use of systemic steroids for at least 3 days, inpatient hospitalization due to asthma or emergency room visit that required systemic steroids, or death due to asthma. Since fewer than 50% of participants had an exacerbation event, the median survival time could not be calculated and instead the number of participants with an event is reported.

Participants were censored at study completion or withdrawal. An asthma exacerbation was considered severe if it resulted in at least one of the following: use of systemic steroids for at least 3 days, inpatient hospitalization due to asthma or emergency room visit that required systemic steroids, or death due to asthma.

SecondaryTotal Duration of Systemic Glucocorticoid Exposure, While on Treatment Strategy (Participants Aged >=12 Years)

The total duration of systemic glucocorticoid exposure was analyzed under the While on Treatment strategy in the Full analysis set (FAS) and was defined as the cumulative days of SCS use following a severe exacerbation from treatment initiation until study completion, treatment discontinuation or a step-up in maintenance therapy. SCS were normalized to prednisone equivalents when calculating total dose, patients whose total dose could not be normalized are excluded from analysis.

Time frame:
From treatment initiation until the earliest occurrence of study completion, treatment discontinuation or a step-up in maintenance therapy, up to one year following treatment initiation.

Adverse events

Collected over All-cause mortality (death due to any cause): from randomization up to and including the final DCO (20 September 2024) or study discontinuation, up to 1 year. Treatment-emergent adverse events: from treatment initiation until the earliest occurrence of study completion or treatment discontinuation, up to 1 year.. Non-serious events are listed at a 2% frequency threshold.
