Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study will assess the efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab in adult patients with mild to moderate asthma treated with short-acting beta-agonist (SABA) therapy alone. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive either blinded lebrikizumab or placebo treatment by subcutaneous (SC) injection (every 4 weeks for a total of 3 doses) or open-label treatment with Singulair (Montelukast; 10 mg daily). Time on study treatment will last 12 weeks.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Absolute change in pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) [From Baseline to Week 12]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Relative change in morning pre-bronchodilator peak expiratory flow (PEF) [From Baseline to Week 12]

  2. Time to treatment failure [From Baseline to Week 12]

  3. Change in asthma rescue medication use [From Baseline to Week 12]

  4. Incidence of adverse events [Approximately 20 weeks]

  5. Pharmacodynamics: Relative change in fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) [From Baseline to Week 12]

  6. Pharmacodynamics: Change in blood eosinophil count [From Baseline to Week 12]

  7. Pharmacokinetics: Maximum serum lebrikizumab concentration after the first dose (Cmax) [Week 1]

  8. Change in patient-reported outcome, as measured by the Standardized Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ(S)) [From Baseline to Week 12]

Exclusion Criteria:
