Study of Inhaled RNS60 in Combination With Budesonide to Treat Mild to Moderate Asthma
- Registration Number
- NCT01511302
- Lead Sponsor
- Revalesio Corporation
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether RNS60, in combination with budesonide, is safe in mild to moderate asthmatics when taken by nebulization over a 28-day period, compared to a 28-day control period.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) Baseline to 56 days Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not cause bronchoconstriction, as measured by FEV1 scores.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in rescue inhaler usage 56 days Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not increase rescue inhaler usage, as measured by patient diary.
Change in peak expiratory flow Baseline to 56 days Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not cause bronchoconstriction, as measured by daily peak expiratory flow values.
Change in quality of life 56 days Evidence that RNS60 in combination with budesonide does not reduce patient's quality of life, as measured by weekly QOL questionnaire over 28 days.
