Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Participant of ≥18 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent or written informed consent is obtained from each study participant's legal guardian.
- Asthma for ≥ 6 months, defined as:
- Documented history of asthma, as defined by Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) (GINA, 2023\]
- Receiving one of the following asthma treatments, at a stable dose (applicable to daily Inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), ICS/Long-acting bronchodilator (LABA), and ICS/LABA/Long-acting muscarinic antagonist \[LAMA\]), for at least 12 weeks prior to the screening visit, with treatment that is anticipated to remain stable for the duration of the study:
- Short-Acting Beta-2-Adrenoreceptor Agonists (SABA) used as needed for asthma symptoms
- Daily maintenance low to medium dose Inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (low to medium dose ICS defined as 100-500 μg/day fluticasone propionate or equivalent as defined in the 2023 GINA guidelines \[GINA, 2023\], plus Short-Acting Beta-2-Adrenoreceptor Agonists (SABA), which is anticipated to remain stable for the duration of the study.
- Daily maintenance low to medium dose ICS/ Long-acting bronchodilator (LABA) (low to medium dose ICS defined as 100-500 μg/day fluticasone propionate or equivalent as defined in the GINA guidelines \[GINA, 2023\] plus SABA, which is anticipated to remain stable for the duration of the study.
- Daily maintenance ICS/LABA/LAMA (low to medium dose ICS defined as 100-500 µg/day fluticasone propionate or equivalent as defined in the GINA guidelines \[GINA, 2023\] plus SABA, which is anticipated to remain stable for the duration of the study.
- Participants who utilize combination budesonide/formoterol as reliever therapy, whether or not this is in addition to a SABA - are not eligible for screening.
- Participants who utilize ICS/SABA combination therapy as reliever therapy, in addition to low to medium dose ICS or ICS/LABA as maintenance, are only eligible if they agree to discontinue their ICS/SABA inhaler for the duration of the study (screening through follow-up).
- Severity of disease assessed by the investigator by baseline pre-bronchodilator Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)
- Asthma Control Status
- Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) 6 score \<1.5 at screening
- Asthma that has remained stable with no severe exacerbations in the last 6 months. Severe exacerbation defined as:
- Deterioration of asthma-requiring the use of systemic corticosteroids (tablets, suspension or injection), for at least 3 days, OR
- +11 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- A history of life-threatening asthma or asthma that is unstable in the opinion of the investigator.
- Other significant pulmonary diseases to include (but not limited to): pneumothorax, pulmonary fibrotic disease, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, tuberculosis or other respiratory abnormalities other than asthma.
- Respiratory Infection: Culture-documented or suspected bacterial or viral infection of the upper or lower respiratory tract, sinus or middle ear that is not resolved within 4 weeks of screening that led to a change in asthma management, OR in the opinion of the Investigator, is expected to affect the participant's asthma status, OR the participant's ability to participate in the study.
- Asthma Exacerbation: Any severe asthma exacerbation within 6 months prior to screening.
- Current or chronic history of liver disease or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert's syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones) Biologic/immunosuppressive therapies used for the treatment of respiratory diseases during the 6 months, or 5 half-lives-whichever is longer-prior to start of the study.
