Summary
To determine the safety and tolerability of Arformoterol Tartrate in children with asthma
Clinical Details
Official title: A Cumulative Dose Safety and Tolerability Crossover Study of Arformoterol Tartrate Inhalation Solution and Levalbuterol Hydrochloride Inhalation Solution in Pediatric Subjects (Aged 2 to 11 Years of Age) With Asthma
Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator), Active Control, Crossover Assignment, Safety Study
Primary outcome: To compare the safety and tolerability of cumulative dosing with arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution versus levalbuterol hydrochloride inhalation solution (3 cumulative nebulizations in one hour) in pediatric subjects with asthma.
Secondary outcome: To investigate the FEV1 response (in children 6 and older and for children 5 or younger who can perform spirometry) to cumulative dosing with arformoterol tartrate inhalation solution versus levalbuterol hydrochloride inhalation solution.
Detailed description:
A randomized, double-blind two-way crossover study of three cumulative doses of arformoterol
(7. 5 ug per nebulization) and levalbuterol (0. 63 mg per nebulization) given over a one hour
period, followed by a single open-label treatment day with three cumulative doses of
arformoterol 15 ug in subjects 2-11 years of age with asthma.
