Asthma Clinical Trials in Jacksonville, FL

The purpose of the study is to evaluate effect of benralizumab on structural and lung function changes in severe eosinophilic asthmatics. Changes will be assessed over 48 week treatment period in patients with persistent symptoms despite standard therapy of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) plus long acting B2-agonist (LABA) with or without additional controller medication. Patients who complete treatment will enter 4 weeks follow-up period. Read Less

This study will assess whether switching participants who have benefitted from mepolizumab or benralizumab to GSK3511294 (Depemokimab) is non-inferior to maintaining current treatment on the annualized rate of clinically significant exacerbations in participants with severe asthma with an eosinophilic phenotype. Throughout the study, all participants will continue their non-biologic Baseline standard of care (SoC) asthma treatment. Read Less

The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treating provider. Read Less

Most children with asthma have concurrent atopy (allergic inflammation), which is associated with an improved response to ICS. However, the absence of an atopic phenotype is associated with a poorer ICS response, leaving clinicians with limited treatment options. The nonatopic asthma phenotype has been characterized as the absence of atopic diseases including allergic rhinitis, eczema, or food allergies, and a negative skin prick test to common aeroallergens. Children with mild asthma treated with ICS over 44 weeks without a positive allergen skin test are 3 times more likely to have an asthma exacerbation when compared with children with positive skin tests. Similarly, adolescents and adults with asthma with low blood eosinophils or low sputum eosinophils have no difference in exacerbation rate response to ICS compared with placebo. Due to poor ICS response in nonatopic children and the known adverse effects of ICS, the development of non-steroid treatments options is needed. Monotherapy with the long-acting muscarinic antagonist, tiotropium, was superior to placebo for treatment failure outcomes in adolescents and adults with low sputum eosinophil levels. Tiotropium is approved in children as an add on therapy to ICS in children ≥ 6 years with asthma. But, this combination of treatment would still expose children with nonatopic asthma to the risks (but potentially without the benefit) of ICS therapy. The objective of this study is to conduct a feasibility pilot safety study of 6-weeks treatment with tiotropium monotherapy vs. ICS in children ages 6 to 11 years old with nonatopic mild persistent asthma.

The CHRONICLE Study is a multi-center, non-interventional, prospective cohort study of adults with severe asthma who do not achieve control with high-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) therapy with additional controllers and/or require systemic corticosteroid or monoclonal antibody therapy. Data will be collected from the healthcare provider in a uniform manner for every patient enrolled using an electronic case report form (eCRF). Data will be collected monthly from patients via web-based surveys. Patients will be followed until study discontinuation or the patient withdraws from the study or death, whichever occurs first. The expectation is that patients will be followed for a period of at least 3 years. Read Less

The objective of this clinical study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of dexpramipexole in participants with inadequately controlled severe eosinophilic asthma. Read Less
