Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This was a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, six-sequence, three-period cross-over study in asthma patients. The study consisted of a 14-day screening period, followed by a 14-day run-in period, and a treatment epoch which consists of three treatment periods, with a minimum duration of 14 days each followed (for the 2 first treatment periods) by a wash-out period. The duration of each treatment period may be extended up to a duration of 18 days if needed for operational reasons. The third treatment period was followed by a Study Completion evaluation at 1-7 days following the last dose. The treatment periods were separated by wash-out periods of 14 to 21 days duration.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. FEV1 Standardized Area Under the Curve (AUC 0-24h) After Last Evening Dose of 14-day Treatment Period [At the end of each treatment period day 14 pre-dose to 24 hours post-dose.]

    Weighted mean forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) over 24 h (AUC0-24h) following 14 days of treatment with QVM149 dosed in the morning, QVM149 dosed in the evening and placebo.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Trough FEV1 After 24h [At the end of each treatment period day 14 pre-dose to 24 hours post-dose.]

    FEV1 at approximately 24 h after the last p.m. or penultimate a.m. dose. Morning and evening trough FEV1 (L) were analyzed by time of day. For morning trough FEV1 (L) assessments this meant that the spirometric assessment was done approximately 24 h after last morning dose and approximately 12 h after last evening dose.

  2. Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) [From treatment period start through study completion (up to 19 weeks).]

    Peak expiratory flow (PEF) is the maximum flow generated during a forceful exhalation, starting from full lung inflationDaily morning and evening peak expiratory flow rate from Day 2 to Day14 during the three treatment periods.

  • Patients who have had an asthma attack/exacerbation requiring systemic steroids or hospitalization or emergency room visit within 1 year of Screening.

  • Patients who have had previous intubation for a severe asthma ttack/exacerbation.

  • Patients with a history of clinically relevant bronchoconstriction upon repeated forced expiratory maneuvers.

  • History of paradoxical bronchospasm in response to inhaled medicines.
