About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Asthma focused on measuring asthma, levosalbutamol, genotype, bronchoprotection
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Mild to moderate stable asthmatics on ≤ 2000μg BDP or equivalent
- Methacholine responsive PC20< 4 mg/ml
- >1dd change in methacholine PC20 after the administration of racemic Salbutamol.
- Male or female 18-65
- Informed Consent
- Ability to comply with the requirements of the protocol
Exclusion Criteria:
- Severe asthmatics as defined by an FEV1≤ 60% or PEF variability > 30% or with continual daytime or nocturnal symptoms.
- The use of oral corticosteroids within the last 3 months.
- Recent respiratory tract infection (2 months).
- Significant concomitant respiratory disease such as COPD, CF, ABPA, bronchiectasis and active pulmonary tuberculosis.
- Any other clinically significant medical condition such as unstable angina, acute myocardial infarction in the preceding 3 months, recent TIA/ CVA,that may endanger the health or safety of the participant, or jeopardise the protocol.
- Any significant abnormal laboratory result as deemed by the investigators
- Pregnancy, planned pregnancy or lactation
- Known or suspected contra-indication to any of the IMP's
- Concomitant use of medicines (prescribed, over the counter or herbal) that may interfere with the trial.
