Study of Dose-response to Bronchodilator and Dose-finding in Child 2.5 to 6 Years - Study Golden
- Conditions
- Asthma
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT01470755
- Lead Sponsor
- Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
- Brief Summary
In older children and adults, bronchodilator (BD) dose-effect relationship is part of the characteristics of asthma disease. There are no data on BD dose-response relationship in wheezy preschool children whose disease pathophysiology is poorly understood, but may, in part, takes on the characteristics of asthma.
The investigators assume that 1) in young children interrupter resistance (Rint) could be used to measure a BD effect 2) the response to BD may vary depending on the dose used 3) the dose-response relationship could depend on the environment and gene polymorphism ADBR2.
This is a prospective phase II study on dose-response relationship and description of the dose-response curve design using a "sparse" and a modeling approach MCP-Mod.
The dose-response relationship will be modeled by sparse data. The investigators will test two doses per child in four designs that will be drawn. These doses will be assessed using Rint technique by a person blinded to the actual dose delivered to the child.
Measurements of 90 children will estimate E0, Imax and D50 (pharmacokinetic constants) with an accuracy of 3.5%, 8.9% and 25.7% respectively.
The bronchodilator used in the study is the Salbutamol as Ventolin ® (GSK) suspension for inhalation as an aerosol at a dose of 100μg per puff. Ventolin ® is used as part of the MA (No. 344 387-3)
- Detailed Description
In older children and adults, bronchodilator (BD) dose-effect relationship is part of the characteristics of asthma disease. There are no data on BD dose-response relationship in wheezy preschool children whose disease pathophysiology is poorly understood, but may, in part, takes on the characteristics of asthma.
We assume that 1) in young children interrupter resistance (Rint) could be used to measure a BD effect 2) the response to BD may vary depending on the dose used 3) the dose-response relationship could depend on the environment and gene polymorphism ADBR2.
This is a prospective phase II study on dose-response relationship and description of the dose-response curve design using a "sparse" and a modeling approach MCP-Mod.
The dose-response relationship will be modeled by sparse data. We will test two doses per child in four designs that will be drawn. These doses will be assessed using Rint technique by a person blinded to the actual dose delivered to the child.

The bronchodilator used in the study is the Salbutamol as Ventolin ® (GSK) suspension for inhalation as an aerosol at a dose of 100μg per puff. Ventolin ® is used as part of the MA (No. 344 387-3) clinical implications The demonstration, first, of the possibility for Rint to detect a dose-response to BD will lead, secondly, to the determination of the minimum dose required for the detection of a reversibility in young children using Rint. It will end a long-standing debate about whether, when no Rint change is observed after BD administration in a young child, the child has actually no reversibility or the BD dose used was not sufficient to demonstrate one.
Moreover, the demonstration of a BD dose-response relationship in young children will suggest similarity between wheezy young children and older children and adults with asthma bronchial behaviour that may have possible therapeutic implications.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Estimate of bronchodilator dose-effect 90 MINUTES Estimate of bronchodilator dose-effect in young children using the technique of interruption of airflow.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Determine the minimum dose to be used routinely in a bronchodilator test and study the effect of environment on the dose-effect of the BD and the minimum dose to be used when testing the BD. 90 minutes Determine the minimum dose of bronchodilator to use during a routine test to bronchodilator in young children to demonstrate bronchial reversibility.
To study the effect of the environment (preventer treatment, atopy, disease control) on the BD dose-response relationship and the minimum BD dose to use to study bronchodilator response.
Study on the genotype of the beta2-adrenergic receptor as a source of variation in the dose-response to bronchodilator.
