Clinical Trial Summary

The main purposes of this study are to evaluate the safety (Parts 1 and 2) and efficacy (Part 2) of pretreatment with CNTO 3157 in healthy adult and asthmatic adult participants before and after intranasal (into the nose) inoculation with human rhinovirus type 16 (HRV-16).


Description:

This is a two-part, randomized (participants are assigned to treatment by chance), double-blind (participants and investigators do not know what study agent is being administered), placebo-controlled study. A placebo appears identical to a study agent, has no active ingredients, and helps investigators evaluate the effect of a study agent. In Part 1, following administration of CNTO 3157 or placebo, the severity of an upper respiratory tract infection, due to inoculation with HRV 16, will be assessed in healthy participants for safety reasons. In Part 2, following administration of CNTO 3157 or placebo and inoculation with HRV-16, efficacy and safety will be assessed in asthmatic participants using standard assessments to evaluate asthma treatments. The study (Parts 1 and 2) will be completed when the last participant completes the last visit (Week 11) in Part 2.

Placebo (healthy participants)
Placebo, as a single intravenous infusion, on Day 1, 24 to 72 hours prior to inoculation with HRV-16.
CNTO 3157 (asthmatic patients)

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary The maximum percent decrease relative to baseline in the prebronchodilator forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) measurements (Part 2) Up to 10 days after inoculation with human rhinovirus type 16 (HRV-16) No
Secondary Area under the serum concentration versus time curve (AUC) of change from baseline in Cold Symptom Assessment Score Cold symptoms is rated using a 5 point scale (0=none and 4=very severe). Scores can range from 0-32, with higher scores indicating more symptoms. Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of change from baseline in Cold and Chest Symptom Scale Cold and chest symptoms are rated using a 5 point scale: 0 using a 5 point scale (0=none and 4=very severe). Scores can range from 0-60, with higher scores indicating more symptoms. Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of change from baseline in log-transformed fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of the percent change from baseline in clinic assessed prebronchodilator FEV1 Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of change from baseline in morning (AM) peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of the change from baseline in prebronchodilator percent predicted FEV1 Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of the change from baseline in prebronchodilator forced vital capacity (FVC) Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of the change from baseline in prebronchodilator forced expiratory flow at 25 to 75% of vital capacity (FEV25-75) Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of the change from baseline in prebronchodilator FEV1/FVC Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary AUC of change from baseline in average total asthma symptom diary score Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary Change from baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) ACQ is an instrument designed to evaluate asthma control. Seven items are scored on a 7-point scale (0=good control, 6=poor control) with the mean score as an overall summary score. Questions 1-6 are completed by the patient; the last item is entered by site personnel and corresponds to the patient's percent predicted FEV1 categorized according to the 7-point scale. Higher scores reflect poorer control. Up to 10 days after inoculation with HRV-16 No
Secondary Change from baseline in Cold Symptom Assessment Score Clinical symptoms to HRV-16 will be assessed by using the Cold Symptom Assessment Score, wherein participants will report the presence and severity of their cold symptoms in the context of the previous 24 hours via an interactive interview with the study staff. The symptoms consist of nasal congestion (stuffy nose), rhinorrhea (runny nose), sore throat, sneezing, cough, headache, malaise (feeling run down, tired) and chilliness. Severity is rated using a 5 point scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, and 4=very severe). Scores can range from 0-32, with higher scores indicating more symptoms. Up to 11 weeks No
Secondary Change from baseline in Cold and Chest Symptom Scale The Cold and Chest Symptom Scale contains 15 items composing 2 domains, a total cold score and a total chest score. Together, these 2 domains comprise the chest symptom assessment score.
Total Cold Score domain: sneezing, runny nose, blocked or stuff nose, sore throat or hoarse voice, headache or face pain, generally unwell, chills, fever or shivery and cough and Total Chest Score domain: cough on waking, wheeze on waking, daytime cough, daytime wheeze, daytime chest tightness, daytime breathlessness and nocturnal cough, wheeze and breathlessness.
Severity is rated using a 5 point scale: 0 using a 5 point scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, and 4=very severe). Scores can range from 0-60, with higher scores indicating more symptoms.
