A 24-Week Treatment Study to Compare Standard of Care Versus the eMDPI DS in Participants 13 Years or Older With Asthma

Study Summary

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Digital System (DS) in improving asthma control compared to the Standard of Care (SoC) group. The secondary objective is to describe the asthma management actions by investigational center health care providers (iHCPs) for all participants in both groups, to evaluate short-acting beta2 agonist (SABA) usage and the number of SABA-free days in the DS group, to evaluate adherence patterns to maintenance treatment (FS eMDPI) in the DS group, to assess behavioral correlates of responsiveness to digital health technology among participants for all participants in both groups, to evaluate work productivity and activity impairment in asthma participants in both groups, to assess the usability and acceptability of the DS by participants in the DS group and the investigational center personnel, and to evaluate the safety of FS eMDPI and Albuterol eMDPI.

Primary Outcome

A well-controlled asthma was defined as an Asthma Control Test (ACT) score of greater than or equal to 20. Clinically important improvement in asthma control was defined by an increase of at least 3 ACT units from baseline. The ACT was a simple, participant-completed tool used for the assessment of overall asthma control. The ACT included 5 items that assessed daytime and nighttime asthma symptoms, use of reliever medication, and impact of asthma on daily functioning. Each item in the ACT was sc
