E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Characterize the late asthmatic response (LAR) in terms of area under the FEV1 (Forced expiratory volume in one second) curve after inhaled allergen challenge (breathing in a fine mist of the allergen that the participant is sensitive to) in mild asthmatic subjects receiving 14 days of TD-8236 or placebo (dummy drug containing no active ingredient) |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Secondary: •Characterize the late asthmatic response (LAR) in terms of maximum decline in FEV1 (Forced expiratory volume in one second) and area under the percent change FEV1 curve after inhaled allergen challenge (breathing in a fine mist of the allergen that the participant is sensitive to) in mild asthmatic subjects receiving 14 days of TD-8236 or placebo (dummy drug containing no active ingredient) •Assess the pharmacokinetics (PK - the levels of study medication in the body and the time it takes the body to break it down) of TD-8236 in subjects with asthma •Evaluate the safety and tolerability of inhaled TD-8236 administered for 14 days in subjects with mild asthma
Exploratory: •Characterize the early asthmatic response (EAR) after inhaled allergen challenge in mild asthmatic subjects receiving 14 days of TD-8236 or placebo •Characterize the overall asthmatic response from 0-8 hours after inhaled allergen challenge in mild asthmatic subjects receiving 14 days of TD-8236 or placeb |
