Severe Asthma study: GB-0895

Official title A Study to Investigate GB-0895 Adjunctive Therapy in Adults and Adolescents With Severe Uncontrolled Asthma (SOLAIRIA-1)

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07276724

What this study is testing

What is GB-0895?

GB-0895 is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for severe asthma.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study aims to find out if adding GB-0895 to current asthma treatments improves health for people whose asthma is not well controlled.
Who it's for
The study is looking for adults and teenagers who have severe asthma that is not managed well by standard inhaled steroid medicines.
What's involved
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the new medicine GB-0895 or a placebo (sugar pill) every 6 months. They will also continue their usual asthma treatments.
Time commitment
The study lasts 52 weeks, with visits required every 1 to 2 months after the first month.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
