Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: RNS60-BD 0.25

RNS60 in combination with Budesonide 0.25mg/2ml concentration

Drug: RNS60
RNS60, 2ml, nebulized twice daily.

Drug: Budesonide
Budesonide, in either 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg per 2 ml concentration in liquid suspension, nebulized once per day in combination with RNS60 or NS.

Experimental: RNS60-BD 0.5

Drug: RNS60
RNS60, 2ml, nebulized twice daily.

Drug: Budesonide
Budesonide, in either 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg per 2 ml concentration in liquid suspension, nebulized once per day in combination with RNS60 or NS.

Placebo Comparator: NS-BD 0.5

Normal Saline control (NS) in combination with Budesonide 0.5mg/2ml concentration

Drug: Normal Saline
Normal Saline placebo, 2 ml, nebulized twice daily.

Drug: Budesonide
Budesonide, in either 0.25 mg or 0.5 mg per 2 ml concentration in liquid suspension, nebulized once per day in combination with RNS60 or NS.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) [Baseline to 56 days]

    Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not cause bronchoconstriction, as measured by FEV1 scores.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in peak expiratory flow [Baseline to 56 days]

    Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not cause bronchoconstriction, as measured by daily peak expiratory flow values.

  2. Change in quality of life [56 days]

    Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not reduce patient's quality of life, as measured by weekly QOL questionnaire over 28 days.

  3. Change in rescue inhaler usage [56 days]

    Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not increase rescue inhaler usage, as measured by patient diary.

Inclusion Criteria:
  • Male or female non-smokers, aged between 18 and 65 years.

  • Clinical diagnosis of mild to moderate asthma meeting NHLBI 2007 guidelines as outlined in Appendix A.

  • Subjects who have a currently prescribed inhaled corticosteroid medication to treat asthma, alone or in combination with other medications, with usage of 1 month (≥ 95% compliance) or more on the inhaled corticosteroid treatment.

  • Normal 12-lead ECG at Screening.

  • Normal single view chest x-ray at Screening.

  • Men and women of reproductive potential who commit to use adequate contraception during the study and for 1 month following the last day of treatment (Day 57).

  • Women of childbearing potential who have a negative pregnancy test (serum HCG) at the time of study entry, and again on Day 22.

  • Subjects, or their legal guardians, must be capable of understanding the purpose and risks of the study and provide written, voluntary, informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:
