About

The goal of this study is to assess and compare the effectiveness of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol trifenatate (FF/UMEC/VI) with inhaled corticosteroids/long-acting beta-2 agonists (ICS/LABA) in adult participants with uncontrolled asthma

Inclusion criteria

Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply:

  1. Has a diagnosis of asthma as defined by Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) 2023 guidelines for at least 3 months prior to randomization.

  2. Participants who are either:

    • Currently untreated
    • Treated with daily maintenance ICS or ICS/LABA
  3. ACQ-6 score ≥1.5 at randomization.

  4. Participants able to perform technically acceptable and repeatable FEV1 maneuvers (i.e., a minimum of 2 acceptable and 1 repeatable effort) at visit 2 (V2)

  5. Participants must be able to complete the study questionnaires.

Exclusion criteria

Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply:

  1. Recent history of life-threatening asthma
  2. History of >1 severe exacerbation of asthma within 12 months prior to randomization.
  3. Women of childbearing potential that are not following at least one highly effective method of contraception. This includes women who are pregnant or lactating or are planning on becoming pregnant during the study.
  4. A WOCBP must have a negative pregnancy test ≤7 days prior to randomization.
  5. Exposure to inhaler triple therapy [ICS + Long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) + LABA as Single inhaler triple therapy (SITT) or Multiple inhaler triple therapy(MITT)] and/or any LAMA-containing therapy within 12 months prior to randomization.
  6. Ongoing need for biologic therapy or recent use of a biologic therapy
  7. Participants with the diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as per Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD 2024) guidelines.
  8. Participants whose current medications include RELVAR ELLIPTA and ARNUITY ELLIPTA are not eligible to enter the study.
  9. Participants who are medically unable to withhold their albuterol/salbutamol for 6 hours prior to spirometry testing
  10. Changes in asthma medication (e.g., maintenance ICS/LABA) within 3 months prior to randomization.
  11. Participants with a history of hypersensitivity to any of the study medications

1,358 participants in 2 patient groups

Fluticasone Furoate [FF]/ Umeclidinium [UMEC]/ Vilanterol [VI]
Experimental group
Description:
Participants with uncontrolled asthma were randomized to receive a once-daily (QD) fixed-dose combination of 100 microgram (mcg) fluticasone furoate (FF), 62.5 mcg umeclidinium (UMEC), and 25 mcg vilanterol (VI) via the Ellipta dry powder inhaler (DPI) for up to 24 weeks. At the discretion of the investigator, a subset of participants received the high-dose ICS-containing therapy, FF/UMEC/VI 200/62.5/25 instead. At any time during the study (post-randomization), participants were escalated to receive FF/UMEC/VI 200/62.5/25 mcg if their asthma control worsened significantly, defined as an increase in Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ-7) total score of \>0.5 from baseline and the physician determines increased Inhaled Corticosteroid \[ICS\] is ethically necessary.
Treatment:
Drug: Fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol trifenatate
Inhaled Corticosteroid [ICS]/Long-acting beta-2 agonist [LABA]
Active Comparator group
Description:
Participants with uncontrolled asthma were randomized to receive Inhaled Corticosteroid \[ICS\]/Long-acting beta-2 agonist \[LABA\] based on usual care as per the country specific regulatory labels up to 24 weeks. At the discretion of the investigator, a subset of participants received high-dose ICS/LABA. At any time during the study (post-randomization), participants were escalated to receive high dose ICS/LABA if their asthma control worsened significantly, defined as an increase in ACQ-7 total score of \>0.5 from baseline and the physician determines increased ICS is ethically necessary.
Treatment:
Drug: Inhaled corticosteroids/long-acting beta-2 agonists
