Abstract
Background
Limited data exist comparing inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) plus adjunctive therapy vs ICS alone in pediatric asthma patients.
Objective
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of fluticasone furoate/vilanterol (FF/VI) vs FF in children and adolescents with asthma.
Methods
This phase 3, randomized, double-blind, multicenter study (NCT03248128) included participants aged 5 to 17 years with six months or more asthma history uncontrolled on ICS monotherapy. Participants received 4-week open-label fluticasone propionate (100 µg) twice daily before 1:1 randomization to 24-week double-blind FF (50 µg:100 µg) or FF/VI (50/25 µg:100/25 µg) once daily. Two populations with different primary endpoints were analyzed to meet United States (week 12 weighted mean forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV1; 0-4 hours]; participants aged 5–17 years) and European (change from baseline predose morning peak expiratory flow [ΔAM PEF] averaged over weeks 1-12; participants aged 5-11 years) regulatory requirements.
Results
Overall, 902 participants, including 673 children aged 5 to 11 years, were randomized and treated. In participants aged 5 to 17, week 12 weighted mean FEV1 (0-4 hours) was greater with FF/VI vs FF (difference: 0.083 L; P < .001). In participants aged 5 to 11, ΔAM PEF over weeks 1 to 12 showed numerical improvement with FF/VI vs FF but was not statistically significant (difference: 3.2 L/min; P = .228). No drug-related serious adverse events or deaths were reported.
Conclusion
FF/VI significantly improved weighted mean FEV1 (0-4 hours; participants aged 5-17 years), but not ΔAM PEF (participants aged 5-11 years) vs FF. No new safety concerns were apparent.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology is a scholarly medical journal published monthly by the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. The purpose of Annals is to serve as an objective evidence-based forum for the allergy/immunology specialist to keep up to date on current clinical science (both research and practice-based) in the fields of allergy, asthma, and immunology. The emphasis of the journal will be to provide clinical and research information that is readily applicable to both the clinician and the researcher. Each issue of the Annals shall also provide opportunities to participate in accredited continuing medical education activities to enhance overall clinical proficiency.
