An observational study in Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis, Severe Asthma and ABPA, sponsored by Qianfoshan Hospital. Recruiting at 2 sites in China. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 75 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-04-21.
Sponsored by Qianfoshan Hospital · Observational
An open-label study will evaluate effects of Benralizumab in the treatment of severe asthma in patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis
Subjects who have been identified to have severe asthma with ABPA will be consented and enrolled in the study to receive benralizumab injections administered every 4 weeks for the first 3 injections with an additional injection eight weeks to follow for a total of 16 weeks active treatment with a follow-up/termination visit eight weeks from the last injection. The termination visit will occur week 24 for subjects who complete the study treatment. Subjects who receive the first dose of benralizumab but withdraw from the study or terminate study treatment for any reason should complete all the procedures outlined for the termination visit.
42 studies on the registry are indexed under Aspergillosis, Allergic Bronchopulmonary; 13 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 20 is below the median of 73 across 14 observational studies indexed under Aspergillosis, Allergic Bronchopulmonary.

Female and Male patients aged 18-75 years inclusively at the time of Visit 1 with a physician diagnosis of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis has met the ISHAM Working Group Diagnostic Criteria for ABPA
Severe chronic asthma (for at least 12 months) requiring treatment with high dose ICS plus asthma controller prior to Visit 1
History of at least 2 asthma exacerbations while on ICS plus another asthma controller (see inclusion criterion 2 for examples) that required treatment with systemic corticosteroids (IM, IV, or oral) in the 12 months prior to Visit 1. For patients receiving oral corticosteroids as a maintenance therapy, an exacerbation is defined as a temporary increase of their maintenance dose for a minimum of 3 days.

Predisposing condition: Bronchial asthma Obligatory criteria (both should be present)
Type I aspergillus skin test positive (immediate cutaneous Aspergillus antigen) or elevated IgE level against Aspergillus fumigatus (Af) Aspergillus niger or Aspergillus flavus may be eligible provided antigen-specific IgE and IgG measurements are available for use.
Elevated total IgE levels (>1,000IU/mL)* Other criteria (at least two of three)
Presence of precipitating or IgG antibodies against Af in serum Radiographic pulmonary opacities consistent with ABPA Total eosinophil count >500 cells/uL in naïve patients (may be historical)
(if the patient meets all other criteria, an IgE value \<1,000 IU/mL may be acceptable) Severe chronic asthma (for at least 12 months) requiring treatment with high dose ICS plus asthma controller prior to Visit 1
Other acceptable asthma controllers include long acting bronchodilators (e.g. a long acting beta-agonist (LABA) or long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMA)), a leukotriene inhibitor, theophylline preparations and/or maintenance OCS (daily or every other day OCS requirement in order to maintain asthma control Documented current treatment with high daily doses of ICS ( >500ug of FP equivalent) plus at least one other asthma controller for at least 3 months prior to Visit 1
For ICS/LABA combination preparation, highest-strength maintenance doses approved in the U.S. will meet this criterion If the ICS and the other asthma controller therapies are given by separate inhalers, then the patient must be on a high daily ICS dose for 3 months prior to entering the study.
History of at least 2 asthma exacerbations while on ICS plus another asthma controller (see inclusion criterion 2 for examples) that required treatment with systemic corticosteroids (IM, IV, or oral) in the 12 months prior to Visit 1. For patients receiving oral corticosteroids as a maintenance therapy, an exacerbation is defined as a temporary increase of their maintenance dose for a minimum of 3 days.

Exclusion Criteria:
Currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or lactating women Concurrent enrollment in another interventional or post-authorization safety study, unless it is observational.
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: long-term lung disease that makes it hard to breathe out, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.

Benralizumab treatment will be given by injections administered every 4 weeks for the first 3 injections with an additional injection eight weeks to follow for a total of 16 weeks active treatment
Drug: Fasenra
30 Mg/mL Subcutaneous Solution
Also known as: Benralizumab
Number of steroid requiring exacerbations
Number of asthma exacerbations requiring the initiation of (or temporary increase in) systemic corticosteroids in severe asthma complicated by ABPA
Time frame: 26 Weeks
Patient-Reported Quality of Life as assessed by Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire
The change from baseline score in Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire. The Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) total score ranges from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate a worse outcome (greater health impairment/poorer quality of life)
Time frame: 26 Weeks
Asthma Control as assessed by Asthma Control Questionnaire 6
The change from baseline score in Asthma Control Questionnaire 6. ACQ-6 scores range from 0 to 6, where higher scores represent poorer asthma control. A score ≤0.75 indicates well-controlled asthma, while a score ≥1.5 indicates uncontrolled asthma.
Time frame: 26 Weeks
Lung Function (FEV1)
The FEV1 change from baseline to End of Treatment
Time frame: 26 Weeks
