ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAnnual Asthma Exacerbation Rate (AER) for Eosinophilic Phenotype (EOS+) ParticipantsWeek 1 up to Week 52
The annual asthma exacerbation rate (AER) was calculated as the total number of observed exacerbations in each group up to week 52, divided by total duration of person-year follow-up in each group. An asthma exacerbation is defined as a progressive increase of asthma symptoms (cough, wheeze, chest tightness, and/or shortness of breath) that does not resolve after the initiation of rescue medications and remains troublesome for the participant resulting in either 1) use of systemic corticosteroids or increase of a stable systemic maintenance dose for a duration of at least 3 days as prescribed or administered by the investigator or healthcare provider; or 2) participant initiation of systemic corticosteroids (tablets, suspension or injection) for a duration of at least 3 days as outlined in the Asthma Action Plan provided to the participant by the investigator on Day 1.
SecondaryDose Response in EOS+ ParticipantsBaseline up to Week 66
SecondaryMinimum Observed Serum Trough Concentration for Benralizumab at Steady-State (Ctrough, ss)Pre-dose (0 hour), Post-dose on Day 1, 6, Week 4, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 52
SecondaryDose-Normalized Minimum Observed Serum Trough Concentration for Benralizumab at Steady-State (Ctrough, ssD)Pre-dose (0 hour), Post-dose on Day 1, 6, Week 4, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 52
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Anti-Drug Antibodies (ADA) to Benralizumab in Eosinophilic Phenotype (EOS+) ParticipantsBaseline up to Week 92
Immunogenicity assessment included determination of anti-drug (benralizumab) antibodies in serum samples. ADA positive was defined as a titer \>=50 at any point in the study. It was observed at baseline and any visit during the study.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire (6-items) (ACQ-6) Score at Week 52Baseline up to Week 52
Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) is a participant-reported questionnaire to assess the asthma control with 6 items assessing night-time waking, symptoms on waking, activity limitation, shortness of breath, wheeze, and rescue short-acting beta agonist use. Each item was rated on a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (no impairment) to 6 (maximum impairment). Overall ACQ score was the mean of the 6 item scores with a score range of 0 (well controlled) to 6 (extremely poor controlled). Data collected on Day 1 prior to dosing was considered as baseline. Results were reported for overall ACQ score. ACQ-6 score was summarized together for all participants.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Mean Total Nasal Symptoms Score (TNSS) at Week 52Baseline up to Week 52
Total Nasal Symptoms Score (TNSS) is a 3-item questionnaire, the sum of nasal symptoms, namely, nasal obstruction (rhinorrhea), nasal congestion, and nasal itching/sneezing. Each symptom was rated on a scale from 0-3, with 0 representing no symptoms, 1 mild, 2 moderate, and 3 severe symptoms. TNSS score was a summation of the 3 individual nasal symptom. TNSS score could range from 0 to 9 where higher score indicates worsening. Data was summarized by each treatment group. In addition, data was summarized together for "EOS+ and EOS- Placebo" arms and "EOS+ and EOS- benralizumab 100 mg" arms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Mean Asthma Symptom Diary Score at Week 51-52Baseline up to Week 51-52
Asthma Symptom Diary included 7 questions about the participant symptom and the overall impact of treatment on the disease during the study period. Mean scores of the 7 questions were calculated to identify asthma symptom-free days. Asthma Symptom Diary Scores were analyzed on a bi-weekly basis and compared to baseline scores. Overall symptom score=(daytime frequency score + daytime severity score + nighttime severity score)/3, where total score ranges from 0 to 9. Higher score represents worsening. Mean asthma symptom diary score were summarized together for all participants. Mean asthma symptom diary score were summarized together for all participants. In addition, data was summarized together for "EOS+ and EOS- Placebo" arms and "EOS+ and EOS- benralizumab 100 mg" arms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Rescue Medication Use at Week 51-52Baseline up to Week 51-52
Participants were provided inhalers of the same dose (medium- or high-dose) inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) plus long-acting beta antagonist (LABA) combination product as baseline prophylactic medication and continued with same dose throughout the study. Rescue medications such as short-term beta2 agonists were used as first-line treatment for worsening asthma symptoms. Investigator prescribed additional short term asthma controller medications included additional ICS, theophylline, inhaled cromones or antimuscarinics; if asthma symptoms remained mild but not resolved. If asthma symptoms worsened, participants received an oral corticosteroid burst. All rescue medications use with prophylactic medication (+ prophylactic) and without prophylactic medication (- prophylactic) was recorded in asthma symptom dairy by participant. Rescue medication use was analyzed on a bi-weekly basis and compared to baseline scores.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) at Week 52Baseline and Week 52
FEV1 was the maximal volume of air exhaled in the first second of a forced expiration from a position of full inspiration. Data was summarized by each treatment group. In addition, data was summarized together for "EOS+ and EOS- Placebo" arms and "EOS+ and EOS- benralizumab 100 mg" arms.
