A 12-Week Dose-ranging Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Fluticasone Propionate DPI Administered Twice Daily Compared With Placebo in Adolescent and Adult Subjects With Persistent Asthma Uncontrolled on Non-steroidal Therapy
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Fp MDPI, Flovent Diskus, and 2 other interventions for Asthma. Completed, enrolled 909 participants across 189 sites in 9 countries.
Detailed Summary
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo- and open-label active controlled, parallel-group, multicenter, dose ranging study in male or female subjects ages 12 years and older with persistent asthma who are uncontrolled on non-steroidal therapy. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the dose response, efficacy and safety of 4 different doses of fluticasone propionate delivered as Fluticasone Propionate DPI (Dry Powder Inhaler) when administered twice daily.

Timeline
Interventions
Fp MDPI is an inhalation-driven multidose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) containing fluticasone propionate (Fp) dispersed in a lactose monohydrate excipient and contained within a reservoir. A metered dose of drug is delivered to a dose cup via an air pulse activated when the cap is opened. During the treatment period, participants were randomized to 12.5, 25, 50 or 100 mcg of Fp one inhalation twice a day for a total daily dose of 25, 50, 100 or 200 mcg. Study drug was administered in the morning and in the evening
Flovent Diskus contains the active ingredient fluticasone propionate (Fp). Flovent Diskus 100 mcg was used twice a day, once in the morning and evening, for a total daily dose of 200 mcg of Fp. This therapy was not blinded as the inhaler device was different than the MDPI used in the other treatment arms.
A short-acting β2-adrenergic agonists (SABA), albuterol/salbutamol hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) metered dose inhaler (MDI), was provided to be used as needed for the relief of asthma symptoms during both the run-in and treatment periods (to replace the subject's current rescue medication).
Placebo multidose dry powder inhaler in the morning and evening. Placebo MDPI was provided in devices identical in appearance to Fp MDPI.
