Inhaled Apocynin Decreases Reactive Oxygen Species Concentrations in Exhaled Breath Condensate in Mild Asthmatics
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Apocynin nebulization for Bronchial Asthma. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of inhaled apocynin on ROS (reactive oxygen species) and NOS (reactive nitrogen species) synthesis in 10 nonsmoking mild asthmatics. Effects of nebulized apocynin (0.5 mg/ml, 6 ml) are assessed in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) after 30, 60 and 120 minutes.

Timeline
Interventions
6 ml of apocynin of total dose 3 mg (0.5 mg/ml dissolved in sterile 0.9% NaCl as the study drug) has been nebulized for 15-20 min through the mouthpiece with using of a nose clip. A nebulizer Pulmo Aide AP-50 (DeVilbiss; Richmond, VA) was used (mass median aerosol diameter 3.1 mm, output 0.3 ml/min.)
