NCT01502371

Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the dose-related efficacy, by evaluating morning (AM) lung function at the end of the dosing interval (AM pre-dose percent predicted forced expiratory volume in one second \[FEV1\]) across 12 weeks of treatment, of three doses (50 mcg, 100 mcg, and 200 mcg) of Mometasone Furoate (MF) Metered Dose Inhaler (MDI) twice a day (BID) compared with Placebo in children 5 to 11 years of age, inclusive, with persistent asthma. The primary hypothesis of this study is that at least one dose of MF MDI BID increases lung function, defined as a significant increase in percent predicted FEV1, when compared to Placebo.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in Percent Predicted Morning (AM) Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) - MF MDI vs. Placebo

    FEV1 is the amount of air, measured in liters, forcibly exhaled in 1 second. Pulmonary function tests were to be performed by participants in the morning before dosing. The percent predicted FEV1 equals the participant's observed FEV1 divided by the participant's predicted FEV1 (determined by height and race) and converted to a percentage by multiplying by 100%. The goal of the primary outcome measure was to compare the change from Baseline in AM FEV1 between the MF MDI and Placebo treatment groups. The comparison between the MF MDI 50 mcg BID vs. MF DPI 100 mcg QD treatment groups is presented in a subsequent outcome measure.

    Baseline and Week 12

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Change From Baseline in AM Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) - MF MDI vs. Placebo

    Baseline and Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in Paediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire With Standardised Activities (PAQLQ(S)) Total Score - MF MDI vs. Placebo

    Baseline and Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in Percent Predicted AM FEV1 - MF MDI 50 mcg BID vs. MF DPI 100 mcg QD

Eligibility Criteria

Age5 Years - 11 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Diagnosis of asthma of at least 6 months duration.
  • Using an Inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), either alone or in combination with a long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA), for at least 12 weeks prior to the Screening Visit and must have been on a stable asthma regimen for at least 2 weeks prior to the Screening Visit, must not have used oral glucocorticosteroids within 30 days of the Screening Visit.

You may not qualify if:

  • Treated in the emergency room for a severe asthma exacerbation requiring systemic glucocorticosteroid treatment, or hospitalization for management of airway obstruction within 3 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • History of ventilator support for respiratory failure secondary to asthma.
  • Upper or lower respiratory tract infection (viral or bacterial) within the 2 weeks prior to Screening and Baseline Visits.
  • History of clinically significant renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, metabolic, neurologic, hematologic, ophthalmologic, respiratory, gastrointestinal, cerebrovascular, or other significant medical illness or disorder which, in the judgment of the investigator, could interfere with the study or require treatment that might interfere with the study. Specific examples include but are not limited to insulin-dependent diabetes, hypertension, active hepatitis, cardiovascular disease including hypertension, or conditions that may interfere with respiratory function such as, bronchiectasis, and cystic fibrosis. Other conditions that are well controlled and stable will not prohibit participation if deemed appropriate per the investigator's judgment.
  • Inability to correctly use an oral MDI or a DPI.
  • Participation in this study at another investigational site. Participation in a different investigational study at any site during the same time frame of this study.
  • Randomization into this study more than once.
  • Direct association with either the administration of the this study or the study staff.
