Study summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether two different doses of an investigational drug (CP006 Inhalation Powder, a triple combination of budesonide, formoterol, and umeclidinium) improve lung function in adults with asthma compared to an active comparator (budesonide/formoterol inhalation powder, a marketed two-component product).

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does CP006 produce a greater change in lung function (measured by trough FEV₁ before morning dose) after 28 days of treatment compared to the comparator? What medical problems do participants experience when taking CP006? Researchers will compare two dose levels of CP006 against the active comparator in a 1:1:1 ratio.

Participants will:

Complete a screening visit (up to 7 days) to confirm eligibility, including medical history, physical exam, and lung function tests Enter a 14-day run-in period during which they take the comparator medication (budesonide/formoterol) twice daily Be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: CP006 Dose 1, CP006 Dose 2, or the comparator Take their assigned treatment twice daily for 28 days Visit the clinic at Day 0 (baseline), Day 8, Day 15, and Day 29 for lung function tests, safety checks, and questionnaires (ACQ-5 and AQLQ) Measure their morning and evening peak expiratory flow (PEF) daily using a handheld device and record the results in a diary Return for a follow-up safety visit or phone call at Day 43 (±2 days) The total duration of participation is approximately 58 to 65 days.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in Morning Pre-dose Trough FEV₁ at Day 29

    Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV₁) measured before the morning dose of study medication (after at least 12 hours since the last dose) at Day 29. Change from baseline is calculated as the Day 29 value minus the baseline value (measured at Day 0 before the first dose).

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 0) and Day 29

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in Morning Pre-dose Trough FEV₁ at Day 8 and Day 15

    Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV₁) measured before the morning dose of study medication at Day 8 and Day 15. Change from baseline is calculated as the value at each time point minus the baseline value (measured at Day 0 before the first dose).

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 0), Day 8, and Day 15

  2. Change from Baseline in Mean Morning and Evening Pre-dose PEF at Day 7, Day 14, and Day 28

    Peak expiratory flow (PEF) measured by a handheld peak flow meter before the morning and evening doses of study medication. The mean PEF value over the 7 days prior to each visit is calculated. Change from baseline is calculated as the mean value at each time point minus the baseline mean value (measured during the 7 days prior to randomization).

    Time frame: Baseline (7 days prior to randomization), Day 7, Day 14, and Day 28

  3. Change from Baseline in Mean Daily PEF Diurnal Variability at Week 4

    PEF diurnal variability is calculated as 2 × (highest PEF in a day - lowest PEF in a day) / (highest PEF in a day + lowest PEF in a day) × 100%. The mean daily PEF diurnal variability over 7 days at Week 4 is compared to baseline (the 7 days prior to randomization).

    Time frame: Baseline (7 days prior to randomization) and Week 4

  4. Change from Baseline in Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) Score at Day 15 and Day 29

    The AQLQ consists of 32 items covering symptoms, activity limitation, emotional function, and environmental stimuli. Each item is scored on a 7-point scale (1 = severely impaired, 7 = not impaired at all). The total score is the mean of all item scores. Change from baseline is calculated as the score at each time point minus the baseline score (measured at Day 0 before the first dose).

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 0), Day 15, and Day 29

  5. Change from Baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-5) Score at Day 8, Day 15, and Day 29

    The ACQ-5 consists of 5 questions assessing asthma symptoms, rescue medication use, and impact on daily activities over the past week. Each item is scored on a 0-6 scale. The total score is the mean of all item scores. Change from baseline is calculated as the score at each time point minus the baseline score (measured at Day 0 before the first dose).

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 0), Day 8, Day 15, and Day 29

  6. Total Number of Actuations of Rescue Medication Used During the Treatment Period

    Total actuations of albuterol sulfate inhalation aerosol (100 µg per actuation) used on an as-needed basis for asthma symptoms during the 28-day treatment period.

    Time frame: Day 1 through Day 28

  7. Total Number of Days with Rescue Medication Use During the Treatment Period

    Number of days on which albuterol sulfate inhalation aerosol was used at least once during the 28-day treatment period.

    Time frame: Day 1 through Day 28

  8. Percentage of Days with No Rescue Medication Use During the Treatment Period

    Percentage of days during the 28-day treatment period on which no albuterol sulfate inhalation aerosol was used, calculated as (number of days with no rescue medication use / total days in the treatment period) × 100%.

    Time frame: Day 1 through Day 28

  9. Time to First Asthma Exacerbation During the Treatment Period

    Time from randomization (Day 0) to the first occurrence of an asthma exacerbation, measured in days.

    Time frame: Day 0 through Day 28

  10. Number of Participants with Moderate Asthma Exacerbations

    Number of participants who experienced at least one moderate asthma exacerbation during the 28-day treatment period.

    Time frame: Day 1 through Day 28

  11. Number of Participants with Severe Asthma Exacerbations

    Number of participants who experienced at least one severe asthma exacerbation during the 28-day treatment period.

    Time frame: Day 1 through Day 28
