E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
•To evaluate the efficacy of lebrikizumab compared with placebo in improving lung function, as measured by the absolute change in pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), in adult patients with mild-to-moderate asthma treated with SABA only.
•To evaluate the safety of lebrikizumab compared with placebo in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma treated with SABA only, focusing on the nature, frequency, and severity of serious and non-serious adverse events.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•To evaluate the efficacy of lebrikizumab compared with placebo in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma treated with SABA only, as measured by
-the relative change in pre bronchodilator morning peak expiratory flow (PEF)
-time to treatment failure
-change in asthma specific health-related quality of life
and change in asthma reliever medication use. |

- Use of a systemic immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive therapy within 3 months or 5 drug half-lives prior to study start or during screening
- Use of other investigational therapy within 4 weeks or 5 drug half-lives prior to study start (whichever is longer) or during screening
- Initiation of or change in allergen immunotherapy within 3 months prior to study start or during screening
