Benralizumab Airway Remodeling Study in Severe Eosinophilic Asthmatics (CHINOOK)

Study Description
Brief Summary:

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

Descriptive Information
Brief Title  ICMJE Benralizumab Airway Remodeling Study in Severe Eosinophilic Asthmatics
Official Title  ICMJE A Phase 4, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Group, Placebo Controlled Study to Evaluate the Effect of Benralizumab on Structural and Lung Function Changes in Severe Eosinophilic Asthmatics
Brief Summary

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

Eligibility Criteria  ICMJE

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Male or female aged 18 through 70 years.
  2. History of physician-diagnosed asthma requiring continuous treatment with medium- or high-dose ICS (>250μg fluticasone dry powder formulation equivalents total daily dose) plus LABA with or without additional controller medication for at least 12 months prior to Visit 1.
  3. Documented current treatment with high-dose ICS plus LABA for at least 3 months prior to Visit 1 with or without additional asthma maintenance medication. If the prticipant is taking ICS plus LABA, the ICS and LABA can be parts of a combination product or given by separate inhalers. The ICS dose during the last 3 months prior to Visit 1 must have been >500 µg/day fluticasone propionate dry powder formulation or equivalent daily.
  4. Morning pre-BD FEV1 ≥50 to <80% of predicted normal value (PNV) and ≥1 liter (L).
  5. A blood eosinophil count of: ≥300 cells/µL during screening or ≥150 to <300 cells/µL during screening plus one of the following: presence of nasal polyps or pre-BD FVC <65% predicted at Visit 2 or sputum eosinophil count of ≥2% at Visit 2.
  6. Negative pregnancy test.
  7. Asthma control questionnaire (ACQ-6) >1.5.
  8. Fewer than 12 exacerbations within the 6 months prior to Visit 3.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Clinically important pulmonary disease other than asthma or participants who have ever been diagnosed with pulmonary or systemic disease, other than asthma, that are associated with elevated peripheral eosinophil counts.
  2. Life-threatening asthma, defined as episodes requiring intubation associated with hypercapnia, respiratory arrest, hypoxic seizures, or asthma related syncopal episodes within the 12 months prior to Visit 1.
  3. A history of allergies or adverse drug reactions to medications used for pre-bronchoscopy procedures.
  4. Any disorders that is not stable in the opinion of the Investigator and could affect the safety of the participant during the study, influence the findings of the studies or their interpretations, or impede the participant's ability to complete the entire duration of the study.
  5. Current smokers. Ex-smokers must not have smoked for a minimum of 12 months and should not have a smoking history >15 pack-years at Visit 1. Participants who use e-cigarettes or smoke marijuana will also be excluded from the study.
  6. History of anaphylaxis to any biologic therapy.
  7. Known history of allergy or reaction to any component of the investigational product (IP) formulation.
  8. History of cancer:

    • Participants who have had basal cell carcinoma, localized squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix are eligible provided that the participant is in complete remission and curative therapy was completed at least 12 months prior to the date informed consent is obtained
    • Participants who have had other malignancies are eligible provided that the participant is in complete remission and curative therapy was completed at least 5 years prior to the date informed consent is obtained
  9. A helminth parasitic infection diagnosed within 24 weeks prior to the date informed consent is obtained that has not been treated with, or has failed to respond to standard of care therapy
  10. A history of known immunodeficiency disorder including a positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) test.
  11. Current active liver disease, except for chronic stable hepatitis B and C, or other stable chronic liver disease are acceptable if participant otherwise meets eligibility criteria.
  12. Any medical condition that requires chronic treatment with chronic anti-coagulation, chronic aspirin or anti-platelet therapy.
  13. Use of anticoagulants within 4 weeks prior to randomization in to the study.
  14. Use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) within 72 hours before or aspirin within 7 days of randomization, or longer or as judged by the Investigator.
  15. Use of chronic (i.e. >4 weeks) immunosuppressive medication within 3 months prior to the date informed consent is obtained.
  16. Receipt of immunoglobulin or blood products within 30 days prior to the date informed consent is obtained.
  17. Receipt of any marketed or investigational biologic within 4 months or 5 half-lives prior to the date informed consent is obtained, whichever is longer.
  18. Previously received benralizumab (MEDI-563). Participants that participated in other studies with benralizumab but have been confirmed to have received placebo are eligible.
  19. Receipt of live attenuated vaccines 30 days prior to the date of randomization. Receipt of inactive/killed vaccinations (e.g. inactive influenza) is allowed provided they are not administered within 1 week before/after any IP administration.
  20. Receipt of bronchial thermoplasty in the last 24 months prior to Visit 1
  21. Receipt of any investigational non-biologic within 22 days or 5 half-lives prior to the date informed consent is obtained, whichever is longer.
  22. Currently pregnant, breastfeeding or lactating women.
