Phase 2 Study Evaluating Brenipatide Injections Versus Placebo for Adults With Uncontrolled Moderate to Severe Asthma Over 52 Weeks

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of brenipatide at different dose levels compared with placebo in adults with uncontrolled moderate to severe asthma. This Phase 2 study aims to better understand how brenipatide may affect asthma symptoms and exacerbations over one year of treatment. Participants in this study are adults aged 18 to 75 years with a history of asthma and recent severe exacerbations. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either one of two doses of brenipatide or a placebo, all administered by subcutaneous injection. The treatment period lasts 52 weeks, during which participants receive their assigned injections and are monitored regularly. The study includes a screening period before treatment and a follow-up period after treatment to assess ongoing safety and effects. During the study, participants will attend visits to complete questionnaires, lung function tests such as forced expiratory volume in one second FEV1, and assessments of asthma control and medication use. Researchers will monitor asthma exacerbation rates, rescue medication use, and the presence of anti-drug antibodies. The total study duration including screening, treatment, and follow-up is approximately 65 weeks.
