Albuterol DPI (A006) Clinical Study-B2: Efficacy, Dose-Ranging and Initial Safety Evaluation
Completed · Phase 2 · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Asthma
In brief
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, dose-ranging and initial safety profiles of A006, an Albuterol dry powder inhaler (DPI), in the dose range of 25 to 180 mcg per dosing in comparison to a DPI Placebo Control and an Albuterol metered dose inhaler (MDI) Active Control. This study will be conducted in male and female adult patients who have mild-to-moderate persistent asthma for at least 6 months, but are otherwise generally healthy.
