- •Receipt of live attenuated vaccines 30 days prior to the date of first dose of IP.
- •Initiation of new allergen immunotherapy is not allowed within 30 days prior to Visit
- •However, allergen immunotherapy initiated prior to this period can be continued provided there is a gap of 7 days between the immunotherapy and IP administration.
- •Current use of any oral or ophthalmic non-selective β-adrenergic antagonist (eg, propranolol).
- •Planned surgical procedures during the conduct of the study.
- •Participation in another clinical study with an investigational nonbiologic product administered in the last 30 days or 5 half-lives prior to enrolment, whichever is longer.
- •Known history of allergy or reaction to any component of the IP formulation.
- •Concurrent enrolment in another clinical study.
- •Parent/guardian has a history of psychiatric disease, intellectual deficiency, substance abuse, or other condition (eg, inability to read, comprehend and write) which will limit the validity of consent to participate in this study.
- •Unwillingness or inability of the participant or parent/guardian to follow the procedures outlined in the protocol.
- •Children who are wards of the state or government.
- •Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both AstraZeneca staff and/or staff at the study site).

结局指标
主要结局
Clearance of Benralizumab
时间窗: Pre-dose on Days 0, 28, 56, 112, 168 and post-dose on Days 1, 7, 14, 84, 336; and at early discontinuation or withdrawal visit
Blood samples were collected to determine the clearance of benralizumab. This was an empirical Bayesian estimate (EBE) derived posthoc using population PK analysis.
Area Under the Serum Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero to Day 28 (AUC0-28) of Benralizumab
时间窗: Pre-dose on Days 0, 28 and post-dose on Days 1, 7, 14
Blood samples were collected to determine the AUC0-28 of benralizumab and it was calculated by linear up/log down trapezoidal summation. The PK parameters were estimated using non-compartmental analysis method.
Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmax) of Benralizumab
时间窗: Pre-dose on Days 0, 28, 56, 112, 168 and post-dose on Days 1, 7, 14, 84, 336; and at early discontinuation or withdrawal visit
Blood samples were collected to determine Cmax of benralizumab and it was directly calculated from the individual concentration-time curve. The PK parameters were estimated using non-compartmental analysis method.
Terminal Phase Elimination Half-Life (t1/2) of Benralizumab
时间窗: Pre-dose on Days 0, 28, 56, 112, 168 and post-dose on Days 1, 7, 14, 84, 336; and at early discontinuation or withdrawal visit
Blood samples were collected to determine the t1/2 of benralizumab and it was calculated as natural logarithm of 2 \[ln(2)\]/terminal rate constant (λZ). This was an EBE derived posthoc using population PK analysis.
Time to Achieve Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Tmax) of Benralizumab
时间窗: Pre-dose on Days 0, 28, 56, 112, 168 and post-dose on Days 1, 7, 14, 84, 336; and at early discontinuation or withdrawal visit
Blood samples were collected to determine the tmax of benralizumab and it was directly calculated from the individual concentration-time curve. The PK parameters were estimated using non-compartmental analysis method.
Trough Concentration of Benralizumab at Week 16 (Ctrough16)
时间窗: Pre-dose on Day 112
Blood samples were collected to determine the trough concentration at Week 16, the lowest concentration reached by benralizumab before the next dose was administered. The PK parameters were estimated using non-compartmental analysis method.
Change From Baseline in Peripheral Blood Eosinophil Count up to Week 48
时间窗: Baseline (Day 0) and at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48
Blood samples were collected for determination of eosinophil count levels and were assessed in a central laboratory. Baseline is the last non-missing measurement prior to the first dose of study treatment.
