Study start date: December 1, 2013

Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, 12-week study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of beclomethasone dipropionate (80 or 160 mcg/day) administered via breath-actuated inhaler (BAI) and metered-dose inhaler (MDI) in pediatric patients 4 through 11 years of age with persistent asthma, compared with placebo. Patients took 1 inhalation (with assistance from parents/guardians/caregivers, as needed) from each of 2 devices (BAI device followed by MDI device in that order) twice daily as per the double-dummy study design: 1 BAI treatment or placebo device and 1 MDI treatment or placebo device for a total of 2 inhalations each time.

Design Details

628 patients to be enrolled

Total number of participants that the clinical trial aims to recruit.

Treatment Study

These studies test new ways to treat a disease, condition, or health issue. The goal is to see if a new drug, therapy, or approach works better or has fewer side effects than existing options.

Eligibility

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria: person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Criteria

6 inclusion criteria required to participate
Written informed consent
Asthma diagnosis: The patient has a diagnosis of asthma as defined by the National Institute of Health (NIH). The asthma diagnosis has been present for a minimum of 3 months and has been stable (defined as no exacerbations and no changes in medication) for at least 30 days before screening visit
Severity of disease: The patient has persistent asthma, with a forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) 40% to 90% of the value predicted for age, height, and sex at screening visit (SV)
Current asthma therapy: The patient is currently being treated with 1 of the following: 1) a stable daily dosage of an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) in the range of 88-176 mcg/day of fluticasone propionate (or equivalent) for a minimum of 4 weeks (28 days) before screening visit 2) a stable daily dosage of non-corticosteroid therapy 3) a daily dose of ICS plus a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) (at a dose less than or equivalent to fluticasone propionate 100 mcg/salmeterol 50 mcg twice daily)

7 exclusion criteria prevent from participating
The patient has a history of life-threatening asthma, defined for this protocol as an asthma episode that required intubation and/or was associated with hypercapnia, respiratory arrest, or hypoxic seizures.
The patient is pregnant or lactating, or plans to become pregnant during the study period or for 30 days after the patient's last study-related visit (for eligible patients only, if applicable). Any patient becoming pregnant during the study will be withdrawn from the study.

Study Objectives

5 intervention groups are designated in this study

20% chance of being blinded to the placebo group

Treatment Groups

Group I

Experimental
Beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) was administered via a breath-actuated inhaler (BAI) twice daily (80 mcg twice a day). Placebo MDI twice daily for blinding. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) at 90 mcg ex-actuator) or equivalent was used as rescue medication throughout the study.

Group II

Experimental
Beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) was administered via a breath-actuated inhaler (BAI) twice daily (40 mcg twice a day). Placebo MDI twice daily for blinding. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) at 90 mcg ex-actuator) or equivalent was used as rescue medication throughout the study.

Group III

Active Comparator
Beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) was administered via a metered-dose inhaler (MDI) twice daily (80 mcg twice a day). Placebo BAI twice daily for blinding. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) at 90 mcg ex-actuator) or equivalent was used as rescue medication throughout the study.

Group IV

Active Comparator
Beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) was administered via a metered-dose inhaler (MDI) twice daily (40 mcg twice a day). Placebo BAI twice daily for blinding. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) at 90 mcg ex-actuator) or equivalent was used as rescue medication throughout the study.

Group 5

Placebo
Placebo was administered via breath-actuated inhaler (BAI) twice daily. Additionally placebo was administered via metered-dose inhaler (MDI) twice daily. Albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered-dose inhaler (MDI) at 90 mcg ex-actuator) or equivalent was used as rescue medication throughout the study.
