Study Overview
Brief Summary
A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, pilot study in parallel groups to assess the efficacy and safety of XC8 at a dose of 100 mg versus placebo over a 12-week treatment period in non-smoking patients with a confirmed bronchial asthma (BA) and the eosinophil blood level 2 times within 1 week interval of ≥ 300 cells/μl.
Study design was developed by Chemlmmune Therapeutics LLC, Russia in cooperation with Eurrus Biotech GmbH, Austria.
Detailed Description
The study consists of 3 periods: screening (2 weeks), treatment period (12 weeks) and follow-up (2 weeks). All eligible patients are randomized into one of two treatment groups in a ratio of 1:1. During the study patients will continue to receive stable doses of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) with or without the long-acting β2-agonists; when required, patients will receive short-acting β2-agonists.The randomized patients will be stratified by the site, baseline forced expiratory volume (FEV1) in the range of 55 to 70% and 71% to 85%, and therapy of BA (inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) with or without long-acting β2 agonists).
The Study drug is produced by Hennig Arzneimittel GmbH und Co., Germany.

- •Pregnant or lactating women, or women planning to get pregnant during the clinical study; women of child-bearing potential (including those without history of surgical sterilization and women with <2 years post-menopause) not using adequate contraception methods;
- •Smoking for 1 year prior to screening or previous smoking history of more than 10 packs/year;
- •Severe exacerbations or uncontrolled BA within 3 months prior to screening;
- •Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or other serious lung diseases other than asthma;

- •An acute infectious disease within 30 days prior to screening;
- •Participation in any clinical study or any study drug administration within 30 days prior to screening;
- •Taking or indications for taking of prohibited drugs (including anti-leukotriene preparations, modified-release theophylline, etc.);
- •Indications for long-term use of systemic steroids or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or drugs affecting on the immune system;
- •The need for periodical intake of antihistamines during the study (stable doses of antihistamines for at least 1 month prior to screening and throughout the study is allowed);
- •Immunosuppressant therapy within 3 months prior to screening;
- •Anaphylaxis, generalized urticaria, or angioedema within 1 year prior to screening;
- •Known allergies, hypersensitivity or contraindications for XC8 or its ingredients;
- •A history of systemic autoimmune diseases or vascular collagenosis;
- •Malignancies within the last 5 years (except for the cured basal cell carcinoma);
- •Significant cardiovascular diseases diagnosed at present or within 12 months prior to screening; uncontrolled hypertension with systolic blood pressure > 180 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure > 110 mm Hg; pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis;
- •Nephrotic syndrome, moderate to severe chronic renal failure or significant renal impairment with creatinine level >1.5 mg/dL (132 μM/l) in males and > 1.4 mg/dL (123 μM/l) in females or glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min;
