研究概览
简要总结
Response of a 4 weeks treatment with daily once 320 µg ciclesonide on airway hyperresponsiveness assessed with mannitol.
Hypothesis: Treatment with inhaled ciclesonide reduces airway hyper-responsiveness in 80% of hyper-responsive patients compared to 20% only in the placebo group and the group without airway hyper-responsiveness.

研究组 & 干预措施
ciclesonide positive
Half of the Mannitol positive patients were given ciclesonide. Half of the Mannitol negative patients were given ciclesonide. All patients in the "ciclesonide positive" arm received ciclesonide.
干预措施: Ciclesonide (Drug)
Placebo
Half of the Mannitol positive patients were given a placebo. Half of the Mannitol negative patients were given a placebo. All patients in the "placebo" arm received placebo.
干预措施: Ciclesonide (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change of hyperresponsiveness to mannitol by measuring PD15 FEV1 after 4 weeks (improvement of more than at least 1.5 doubling dose)
时间窗: 4 weeks
measurements of PD15 FEV1 (provocative dose to produce a 15% fall in FEV1), bronchial hyperresponsiveness. A 15 % reduction of FEV1 means a bronchial hyperresponsiveness
次要结局
- AQLQ (Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire)(4 weeks)
- Change in PD20 FEV1 methacholine (Responsiveness to metacholine)(4 weeks)
- Change in FeNO (Nitric Oxide)(4 weeks)
- Change in ACQ (Asthma Control Questionnaire)(4 weeks)
