Summary

This is an exploratory, randomized, subject- and investigator-blinded, placebo-controlled mode-of-action study to demonstrate the anti-inflammatory effects of fevipiprant compared to placebo after 12 weeks of treatment in 48 moderate to severe asthma patients with sputum and blood eosinophilia.

Detailed description

The main purpose of this study is to demonstrate the anti-inflammatory effects of fevipiprant (QAW039) compared to placebo after 12 weeks of treatment in moderate to severe asthma patients with an elevated sputum eosinophil count (≥ 2%) and high blood eosinophil count (≥ 250 cells/μL). This study is also designed to investigate the effects of fevipiprant on key inflammatory cells bearing the DP2 receptor (such as eosinophils, Th2/Tc2 cells, and ILC2 cells) in sputum and blood.
