ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07372287

What this study is testing

What is CM326?

CM326 is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for moderate to severe asthma.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase Ⅲ clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, PK characteristics, PD effects and immunogenicity of CM326 in subjects with moderate to severe asthma. The study consists of three periods, including an up to 4-week screening period, a 52-week double-blind randomized treatment period, and a 12-week safety follow-up period.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
