Mannitol Bronchoprovocation Challenge Ancillary Study/ACRN
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by University of Wisconsin, Madison, December 2007
Sponsors and Collaborators: University of Wisconsin, Madison
Pharmaxis
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)
Information provided by: University of Wisconsin, Madison
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00585260
  Purpose

The overall hypotheses are: 1) an indirect airway challenge procedure using mannitol can safely characterize asthma phenotypes, predict asthma control and exacerbations, predict responses to interventions, and perform more specifically than a direct methacholine challenge and; 2) PX27 pore function in whole blood correlates with measures of airway hyperresponsiveness induced by methacholine and/or mannitol challenges


Condition Intervention
Asthma
Other: guideline based dose adjustment
Drug: mannitol
Drug: methacholine

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Diagnostic, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator), Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: Mannitol Bronchoprovocation Challenge Ancillary Study Protocol to Best Adjustment Strategy for Asthma Over Long Term

Further study details as provided by University of Wisconsin, Madison:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Mannitol bronchoprovocation challenge testing is safe, effective and well tolerated as compared to methacholine. [ Time Frame: At 6 weeks, 20 weeks, and 32 weeks. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To evaluate the applicability of mannitol bronchoprovocation to characterize the asthma phenotype. [ Time Frame: Baseline ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 320
Study Start Date: December 2007
