Clinical Trial Summary

The trial aims to demonstrate efficacy of the House Dust Mite SLIT-tablet versus placebo as add-on treatment in children and adolescents (5-17 years) with House Dust Mite allergic asthma based on clinically relevant asthma worsening.


Description:

The trial aims to demonstrate efficacy of the HDM SLIT-tablet versus placebo as add-on treatment in children and adolescents (5-17 years) with HDM allergic asthma based on clinically relevant asthma exacerbations. Additionally, the trial will investigate if the treatment has an effect on asthma symptoms including nightly awakenings due to asthma, asthma medication use, asthma control, lung function, allergic rhinitis and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis. Finally, quality of life (QoL) for subjects and caregivers will be measured. The trial is a randomised, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled multi-national phase III trial conducted in Europe and North America. The treatment period will be approximately 2 years. Subjects will receive a written asthma action plan.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Other Allergic Rhinitis Symptoms Allergic rhinitis symptoms were entered in an eDiary by the participant/caregiver in a 2-week period every 4 months, for up to 24-30 months. The efficacy assessment period for the endpoint started 4 months after treatment initiation and lasted until the end of the trial or discontinuation of treatment (up to 24-30 months of treatment).
Other Allergic Rhinitis Medication Use Allergic rhinitis medication use were entered in an eDiary by the participant/caregiver in a 2-week period every 4 months, for up to 24-30 months. The efficacy assessment period for the endpoint started 4 months after treatment initiation and lasted until the end of the trial or discontinuation of treatment (up to 24-30 months of treatment).
Primary Annualized Rate of Clinically Relevant Asthma Exacerbations The primary endpoint of the trial was the annualized rate of clinically relevant asthma exacerbations calculated as the number of exacerbations per year per participant during the efficacy evaluation period of 20 months. A clinically relevant asthma exacerbation had to be medically confirmed and was defined as asthma worsening leading to at least 1 of the following criteria:
Doubling of ICS dose compared to background treatment
Systemic corticosteroids for treatment of asthma symptoms for at least 3 days
Emergency room visit due to asthma, requiring systemic corticosteroids
Hospitalization for more than 12 hours due to asthma, requiring treatment with systemic corticosteroids
The outcome measure (by treatment group) is an adjusted annualized rate of clinically relevant asthma exacerbations.
Efficacy assessment period was 20 months (following a 4-10 months treatment initiation and maintenance period)
Secondary Proportion of Days With Nocturnal Awakenings Due to Asthma Requiring SABA Rescue Medication The days with nocturnal awakenings due to asthma requiring SABA rescue medication were entered in an eDiary by the participant/caregiver in a 2-week period every 4 months. The proportion of days with nocturnal awakenings due to asthma requiring SABA was presented on a range from 0 to 1 (1 indicating that all days in the eDiary period were with nocturnal awakenings due to asthma requiring SABA rescue medication). The efficacy assessment was based on data collected over the 20 months efficacy assessment period.
The outcome measure (by treatment group) is an estimated proportion of days with nocturnal awakenings due to asthma requiring SABA rescue medication.
Efficacy assessment period was 20 months (following a 4-10 months treatment initiation and maintenance period)
Secondary Proportions of Days With SABA Use The days with SABA use were entered in an eDiary by the participant/caregiver in a 2-week period every 4 months. The proportion of days with SABA use was presented on a range from 0 to 1 (1 indicating that all days in the eDiary period were with SABA use). The efficacy assessment was based on data collected over the 20 months efficacy assessment period.
The outcome measure (by treatment group) is an estimated proportion of days with SABA use.
Efficacy assessment period was 20 months (following a 4-10 months treatment initiation and maintenance period)
Secondary Percentage Predicted FEV1 The outcome measure (by treatment) is an average of the percentage predicted FEV1 measured at visits 5 to 11 (every 4 months during the 20 months efficacy assessment period), analyzed using MMRM (mixed-effect model repeated measurement).
FEV1 (forced expired volume in 1 second) is assessed by use of spirometry and is a measure for lung function. Percentage predicted FEV1 is derived from the predicted FEV1, which is the expected value of FEV1 for a person of a certain age, race, height and gender with healthy lungs.
Efficacy assessment period was 20 months (following a 4-10 months treatment initiation and maintenance period)
Secondary Global Evaluation of Allergic Asthma as Having an Improved Outcome At the end of trial visit, the subject was asked, when compared to their asthma before IMP treatment, how they felt overall. Subjects who answered 'much better' or 'better' were categorized as having improved allergic asthma. At the end of trial visit, subjects had been treated for 24-30 months (including a 4-10 months treatment initiation and maintenance period).
The outcome measure (by treatment) is an adjusted odds of experiencing improved allergic asthma.
Assessment done at the end of trial visit (after 24-30 months of treatment)
Secondary Global Evaluation of Allergic Rhinitis as Having an Improved Outcome At the end of trial visit, the subject was asked, when compared to their rhinitis before IMP treatment, how they felt overall. Subjects who answered 'much better' or 'better' were categorized as having improved allergic rhinitis. At the end of trial visit, subjects had been treated for 24-30 months (including a 4-10 months treatment initiation and maintenance period).
The outcome measure (by treatment) is an adjusted odds of experiencing improved allergic rhinitis.
Assessment done at the end of trial visit (after 24-30 months of treatment)
