GSK3511294GSK3511294 (Depemokimab)Participants received a 100 milligram (mg) dose of GSK3511294 SC injection once every 26 weeks (week 0 and week 26). Participants were to be maintained on their existing baseline maintenance asthma SOC treatment throughout the study.
PlaceboPlaceboParticipants received placebo subcutaneous (SC) injection once every 26 weeks (week 0 and week 26). Participants were to be maintained on their existing baseline maintenance asthma standard of care (SOC) treatment throughout the study.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Annualized Rate of Clinically Significant Exacerbations up to 52 WeeksUp to Week 52

Clinically significant exacerbations recorded were defined as worsening of asthma requiring the use of systemic corticosteroids (CS) \[such as intramuscular (IM), intravenous (IV) or oral\] and/or hospitalization and/or Emergency Department (ED) visit. For all participants, IV or oral steroids (e.g., prednisone) for at least 3 days or a single IM corticosteroid dose is required. For participants on maintenance systemic corticosteroids, at least double the existing maintenance dose for at least 3 days is required. Exacerbations recorded in the electronic case report form (eCRF) were considered as verified clinically significant exacerbations and included in the primary analysis. Exacerbations separated by less than 7 days was treated as a continuation of the same exacerbation.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score at Week 52Baseline (Day 1) and Week 52

The SGRQ is a 50-item patient-reported outcome tool used to measure Quality of Life in participants with airway obstruction diseases. The questions are designed to be self-completed by the participant. The total score was calculated by the symptom score, activity and impact score; and summarizing the impact of the disease on overall health status on 0-100 rating scale. Scores are expressed as a percentage of overall impairment where 100 representing worst possible health status and 0 indicating best possible health status. Higher scores indicating greater impairment of quality of life. Change from Baseline was defined as value at the indicated time point minus Baseline value.

Change From Baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire-5 (ACQ-5) Score at Week 52Baseline (Day 1) and Week 52

The ACQ-5 is a five-item questionnaire developed as a measure of participants asthma symptom control. The questions are designed to be self-completed by the participant. The 5 questions enquired to recall how their asthma had been during the previous week and to respond about the frequency and/or severity of symptoms (nocturnal awakening, waking in the morning, activity limitation, shortness of breath and wheezing). The overall ACQ-5 response option is the mean score of all 5 questions representing 0 with no impairment/limitation and 6 as total impairment/ limitation. Higher scores indicated more limitations and lower score with better asthma control. Change from Baseline was defined as value at the indicated time point minus Baseline value.

Change From Baseline in Pre-Bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) At Week 52Baseline (Day 1) and Week 52

Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second (FEV1) is defined as the volume of air that can be forced out in one second after taking a deep breath by a person and will be measured by spirometry testing. Change from Baseline in clinic pre-bronchodilator FEV1 was determined. Change from Baseline was defined as value at the indicated time point minus Baseline value.

Change From Baseline in Asthma Nighttime Symptom Diary (ANSD) Weekly Mean Score at Week 52Baseline to Week 52

The ANSD is a 6-item self-administered patient reported diary developed by Patient Related Outcomes (PRO) Consortium's Asthma Working Group to facilitate comprehensive and reliable assessment of asthma symptoms from a participant's perspective. Participants were required to rate the severity of symptoms in 3 core categories: breathing symptoms (wheezing, shortness of breath), chest symptoms (chest tightness, chest pain) and cough. The ANSD was to be completed before going to bed and refers to asthma symptoms during the day. Symptoms are rated at their worst using an 11-point numeric rating scale ranging from 0 (None) to 10 (As bad as you can imagine). Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Mean daily scores of ANSD was calculated by weekly intervals. The baseline values were defined as the average score from Day -7 to Day -1 inclusive (at least 4 days must be non-missing). Change from Baseline was defined as value at each time point minus Baseline value.

Change From Baseline in Asthma Daily Symptom Diary (ADSD) Weekly Mean Score at Week 52Baseline to Week 52

The ADSD is a 6-item self-administered patient reported diary developed by patient related outcomes (PRO) Consortium's Asthma Working Group to facilitate comprehensive and reliable assessment of asthma symptoms from a participant's perspective. Participants were required to rate the severity of symptoms in 3 core categories: breathing symptoms (wheezing, shortness of breath), chest symptoms (chest tightness, chest pain) and cough. The ADSD was to be completed upon waking and refers to asthma symptoms during the night-time. Symptoms are rated at their worst using an 11-point numeric rating scale ranging from 0 (None) to 10 (As bad as you can imagine). Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Mean daily scores of ADSD was calculated by weekly intervals. The baseline values were defined as the average score from Day -7 to Day -1 inclusive (at least 4 days must be non-missing). Change from Baseline was defined as value at each time point minus Baseline value.

Annualized Rate of Exacerbations Requiring Hospitalization and/or Emergency Department (ED) Visit up to 52 WeeksUp to Week 52

The data did not meet the condition (total of 20 or more exacerbations requiring hospitalization and/or ED visit) for conducting the statistical analysis. The number of exacerbations requiring Hospitalization and/or ED Visit are reported here.
