Trial Outcomes & Findings for Asthma Intervention Research (AIR) Trial (NCT NCT00214526)

NCT ID: NCT00214526

Last Updated: 2015-08-28

Results Overview

Average change from Baseline across 12-Week, 6-Month, and 12-Month (OFF-LABA) Follow-up visits. A mild exacerbation was defined as 2 consecutive days when at least one of the following occurs: 1. Morning peak expiratory flow falls at least 20% below the average morning peak flow recorded during the 7 days immediately prior to Enrollment testing; 2. More than 3 more puffs of rescue short acting bronchodilator are required than the average usage during the 7 days immediately prior to Enrollment testing; 3. Awakening at night with asthma symptoms.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 12 Months

Change from Baseline at 12-Weeks, 6-Months, and 12-Months (OFF-LABA) Follow-up Visits in "PC20" - provocative concentration of Provocholine (a brand of methacholine chloride) resulting in a drop of FEV1 of 20% or more from baseline. The patient inhales an aerosol of one or more concentrations of methacholine. The lower the concentration of methacholine that provokes a 20% (or greater) fall in FEV1, the more "responsive" or "hyperresponsive" the airways are. Conversely, a rise in methacholine PC20 indicates airways that have become less reactive.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 12 Months

Change from Baseline at 12-Weeks (ON-LABA) and 12-Weeks, 6-Months, and 12-Months (OFF-LABA) Follow-up Visits in Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) Score. The ACQ is a self-administered patient questionnaire that assesses individual subject asthma control. The ACQ comprises 6 questions that relate to the patient's asthma symptoms, activity limitations, and daily rescue bronchodilator use, and FEV1. Each question is scored from 0 (best) to 6 (worst) and averaged, resulting in a total score from 0 to 6. A decrease in the ACQ score indicates better asthma control.

Timeframe: Baseline, 12 Months

Change from Baseline at 12-Weeks (ON-LABA) and 12-Weeks, 6-Months, and 12-Months (OFF-LABA) Follow-up Visits in AQLQ score. The AQLQ consists of 32 questions (scale from 1 to 7, where 7 reflects a higher quality of life). The AQLQ score is the mean of the scores from the 32 individual questions. An increase in the AQLQ score indicates a better quality of life. A within-subject change in score of 0.5 represents the minimal important difference (MID).

Change from Baseline at 12-Weeks (ON-LABA) and 12-Weeks, 6-Months, and 12-Months (OFF-LABA) Follow-up Visits in Total Symptom Score. Total Symptom Score comprises the sum of six asthma symptom measurements. Each symptom is scored on a scale of 0 to 3 each day by the subject. The sum of the scores for these 6 symptoms comprises the Total Symptom Score, which measures overall asthma symptoms. The maximum score possible is 18. A lower Total Symptom score represents better asthma control.
