Clinical Trial Summary

Severe asthma is a debilitating condition associated with frequent symptoms, life-threatening exacerbations and corticosteroid side-effects. Exercise limitation due to exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, dynamic lung hyperinflation and comorbidity may be a strong determinant of the disease burden. Mepolizumab is a monoclonal anti-interleukin-5 (IL-5) antibody that reduces the rate of severe exacerbations, asthma symptoms and oral glucocorticoid requirement, and improves quality of life and work productivity in severe eosinophilic asthma. However, its impact on physical activity and exercise tolerance is unknown. We hypothesize that a 6-month treatment with mepolizumab is associated with an improvement in daily life physical activity and exercise tolerance in relation with enhanced ventilatory mechanics.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Number of daily steps after 6 months of treatment with mepolizumab
Secondary Time with moderate physical activity (between 3 and 6 METs) and intense activity (>6 METs) Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Percentage of time spent with moderate physical activity (between 3 and 6 METs) and intense activity (>6 METs) Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Ricci and Gagnon questionnaire score • Ricci and Gagnon questionnaire is Score of physical activity , 9 items, total range score from 6 to 45, higher score indicating a higher level of physical activity Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Endurance time during a sub-maximal exercise (80% of maximum load) Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Baseline Dyspnea Index (BDI) The BDI is an interviewer-administered rating of severity of dyspnea at a single state. It provides a multidimensional measurement of dyspnea based on 3 components It comprises 3 domains (functional impairement, magnitude of task and magnitude of effort) scoring from 0 (very severe) to 4 (no impairment) with a recall of the last two weeks. The total score ranges from 0 to 12, the lower the score, the worse the severity of dyspnea. Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Transition Dyspnea Index (TDI) scores The TDI measures changes in each domain of dyspnea severity from the baseline as established by the BDI. The change is rated by seven grades ranging from -3 (major deterioration) to +3 (major improvement). The total score ranges from - 9 to + 9 Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary The modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) scale The mMRC scale is a self-assessed unidimensional scale rating the impact of dyspnea on physical activity in everyday life. The patient chooses the answer that best describes his level of limitation related to dyspnea among 5 proposals. The score is between 0 (absence of dyspnea) to 4 (permanent dyspnea). The MCID considered is 1 unit although data are limited. Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile (MDP) scores The MDP questionnaire is an 11-item hetero-questionnaire evaluating both sensory and affective dimensions of dyspnea, respectively the sensation produced by the respiratory stimulus and the emotion associated with this sensation. Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary ACQ-5 score The ACQ-5 is a shortened version of the ACQ that assesses asthma symptoms (night-time waking, symptoms on waking, activity limitation, shortness of breath, wheezing) omitting the forced expiratory volume in 1 second measurement and short acting beta antagonist use from the original ACQ score. Patients are asked to recall how their asthma has been during the previous week by responding to 5 symptom questions. Questions are weighted equally and scored from 0 (totally controlled) to 6 (severely uncontrolled). The mean ACQ-5 score is the mean of the responses. Mean scores of =0.75 indicate well-controlled asthma, scores between 0.75 and <1.5 indicate partly controlled asthma, and a score =1.5 indicates not well controlled asthma . Individual changes of at least 0.5 are considered to be clinically meaningful. Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary AQLQ score The Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) is a 32-item, 4-domain instrument that can either be self- or interviewer-administered. The recall-time is two weeks. The four domains covered are: (i) symptoms (11 items), (ii) activity limitation (12 items, 5 of which are individualized), (iii) emotional function (5 items), and (iv) environmental exposure (4 items). Each item is ranked by the patient using a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (severely impaired) to 7 (not impaired at all). Scores range from 1 to 7, higher scores indicate better quality of life and a minimally important difference (for overall scores and for each sub-domain) has been established at 0.5. Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Hospital Anxiety and Depression scores (HADS) Depressive symptoms will be assessed using The Hospital Depression and Anxiety Scale.The scale allows to detect anxiety and depression using 14 items rated from 0-3. Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Respiratory capacity by Spirometry Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Respiratory capacity by plethysmography Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Forced inspiratory by Spirometry Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Ventilatory function by Spirometry Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Forced oscillation by impulse oscillometry (the Tremoflo ® oscillometry system) Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
Secondary Frequency of serious and non-serious side effects Baseline, at 3 months and at 6 months
