Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

    • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).

    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    6. Daily use of inhaled GCS (any brand) for >3 months prior to Visit 2.
    7. During 30 days prior to Visit 2, the dose of inhaled GCS should have been constant and within the range of 200-500 μg/day (any brand).
    8. Ability to use pMDI, Turbuhaler, and peak flow meter correctly.
    9. Able to read and write and use the electronic devices.


    For randomization into the study, patients must fulfill all of the following criteria at Visit 3:

    4. Continued eligibility for the study in accordance with the exclusion criteria.
    E.4Principal exclusion criteria
    1. Use of oral, rectal or parenteral GCS within 30 days prior to Visit 2.
    2. Respiratory infection affecting the asthma, as judged by the investigator, within 30 days prior to Visit 2.
    3. Any significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the patient at risk because of participation in the study, or may influence the results of the study or the patient's ability to participate in the study.
    4. Any clinically relevant abnormal findings in physical examination, clinical chemistry, haematology, urinalysis, vital signs at baseline visit, which, in the opinion of the investigator, may put the patient at risk because of his/her participation in the study.
    5. Pregnancy, breast-feeding or planned pregnancy during the study. Women and where applicable, girls of child-bearing potential without acceptable contraceptive measures as judged by the investigator.
    6. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to budesonide, formoterol, inhaled lactose, PVP K25, PEG 1000, HFA-227.
    7. Present use of any β-blocker (including eye-drops).
    8. History of ≥ 10 pack-years of smoking (i.e. equivalent of smoking 20 cigarettes per day for 10 years).
    9. Planned donation of blood during the study.
    10. Planned hospitalization during the study.
    11. Suspected poor capability, as judged by the investigator, to follow instructions of the study, e.g., because of a history of alcohol or drug abuse.
    12. Participation in another clinical study of any investigational drug within 30 days prior to or during the course of the study.
    13. Previous allocation of randomization code in this study.
