Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of nebulized IVX-0142, a novel anti-allergic drug, to inhibit allergen-induced airway narrowing in patients with allergic asthma and the related increased sensitivity of the airways to other substances, as well as to investigate a possible anti-inflammatory effect of the drug in the airways.
