RECRUITINGPhase 2INTERVENTIONAL

Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacology and Efficacy of WIN378 in Adults With Moderate or Severe Asthma

A Phase 2 Randomized, Double-blind Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Immunogenicity, Safety and Efficacy of WIN378 in Adult Participants With Moderate or Severe Asthma

About This Trial

This study is trying to identify the right dose of a long-acting medicine called WIN378 for people with moderate or severe asthma. WIN378 blocks the action of a protein called TSLP which causes inflammation in the lung and may contribute to your asthma control and symptoms. The study will test how doses of WIN378 are handled by your body (pharmacokinetics) and assess the safety of the medicine and will assess markers of asthma inflammation in your breath and in your blood, lung function and asthma control (pharmacodynamics).

Treatments Being Tested

DRUG

WIN378

WIN378 is a fully human, long-acting monoclonal antibody that binds to thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), blocking its activity and thereby reducing airway inflammation and improving asthma control over an extended dosing interval.
