Research Study for People with Moderate to Severe Asthma
This study is closed and no longer enrolling participants.
This study will see how safe and effective the experimental medicine called amlitelimab is when used to treat moderate to severe uncontrolled asthma.
What is the experimental medicine?
The experimental medicine, amlitelimab, is a new medicine being developed to treat people with different immune-mediated diseases, including asthma. It is intended to work alongside the immune system.
Amlitelimab is not approved for treating people with asthma in an everyday clinical setting, and it can only be used in a research study like this one.
Amlitelimab is given as an injection through a small needle placed just under the skin of the abdomen. The injections are completed at the study site approximately every 4 weeks during the first 5 months, and then approximately every 12 weeks during the next 7 months.
Participants in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either amlitelimab or a placebo. There is a 70% chance of receiving amlitelimab and 30% chance of receiving the placebo, and the participants who do receive amlitelimab will be randomly assigned to 1 out of 3 amlitelimab doses. You, your study doctor, and study staff will not know if you are receiving the study medicine (or at which dose) or placebo.
