Summary

This study will evaluate the effect of omalizumab on markers of impairment in patients with inadequately controlled persistent allergic asthma on Step 4 or above therapy as defined in the 2007 National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHBLI) Guidelines

Conditions

  • Persistent Allergic Asthma

Interventions

DRUG

Omalizumab

Omalizumab was supplied as a lyophilized, sterile powder in a single-use, 5 mL vial. The vial was designed to deliver 150 mg (1.2 mL) of omalizumab for subcutaneous (s.c.) administration after reconstitution with 1.4 mL sterile water for injection. Doses of more than 150 mg were divided among multiple injection sites to limit injections to not more than 150 mg per site.

DRUG

Placebo

Placebo was supplied as a lyophilized, sterile powder in a single-use, 5 mL vial. The vial was designed to deliver 150 mg (1.2 mL) of placebo for subcutaneous (s.c.) administration after reconstitution with 1.4 mL sterile water for injection. Doses of more than 150 mg were divided among multiple injection sites to limit injections to not more than 150 mg per site.
