Systems Pharmacology Approach to Uncontrolled Pediatric Asthma

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Asthma is a heterogeneous respiratory disease and the most common chronic disease in children. A small subset of children has continuous poor asthma control despite appropriate adherence to asthma medication. There is a clinical need to identify these children as early as possible to optimize treatment and/or to find therapeutic alternatives. Therefore, the "Systems Pharmacology approach to uncontrolled Pediatric Asthma" (SysPharmPediA) study was set up. Objective: To establish a cohort of pediatric moderate-to-severe uncontrolled and controlled patients with asthma in order to investigate pathophysiological mechanisms underlying uncontrolled moderate-to-severe asthma in children on maintenance treatment, using a multi-omics systems medicine approach. Methods: In this multicenter observational case-control study, moderate-to-severe asthmatic children (n=145, age 6-17 years), were included in specialized hospitals in four European countries (Netherlands, Germany, Spain and Slovenia). Recruited subjects were selected based on good asthma control (controlled asthmatics, n=54) or poor asthma control / recurrent exacerbations (uncontrolled asthmatics, n=91). Comprehensive details concerning demographics, current and past patient/family history and clinical characteristics were collected. In addition, systems-wide omics layers, including epi(genomics), transcriptomics, microbiome, proteomics and metabolomics will be evaluated from multiple collected, relatively non-invasive, samples of from the recruited individuals, such as: blood, feces, saliva, nasal swabs and exhaled breath. Follow-up visits were performed 6 and 12 months after inclusion.
