Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Area Under the Curve From 0-12 Hours (AUC[0-12h]) of the Change From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) After a Single Dose of MF/F MDI With Spacer Compared to Placebo MDI Combined With or Without Spacer
Up to 12 hours postdose

The AUC was standardized to liters by dividing the length of time for which measurements of FEV1 were included in the calculation of the AUC. Baseline was defined as the average of 2 pre-dose FEV1 measurements (taken 30 minutes before and immediately before dosing), which was subtracted from each of the serial FEV1 measurements over the 12-hour period. The AUC was calculated based on these changes from the baseline evaluations using the trapezoidal rule.

Frequently asked questions about Formoterol DPI

What is Formoterol DPI used for?

Formoterol DPI is an inhaled dry powder formulation of formoterol, a long-acting bronchodilator being studied for the treatment of asthma. It is designed to be delivered directly to the airways to help relax the smooth muscle surrounding them and improve airflow in patients with persistent asthma.

How does Formoterol DPI work?

Formoterol DPI works as an agonist at the beta-2 adrenergic receptor, also known as ADRB2. By activating this receptor on airway smooth muscle cells, it triggers bronchodilation, which helps open the airways and ease breathing in people with asthma.

Who is developing Formoterol DPI?

Formoterol DPI is being developed by Organon & Co., which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker OGN. Organon is a global healthcare company focused on women's health and other therapeutic areas, including respiratory medicine.

What phase is Formoterol DPI in?

Formoterol DPI is in Phase 2 clinical development for asthma. It is an investigational product and has not been approved by the FDA for this indication. The Phase 2 program has completed one trial, and no active trials are currently listed.

What clinical trials is Formoterol DPI in?

Formoterol DPI has been studied in one completed Phase 2 trial, NCT01258803. This randomized, controlled study evaluated the bronchodilator effect of formoterol fumarate used in combination with mometasone furoate metered dose inhaler in children aged 5 years and older with persistent asthma, enrolling 92 participants.

Is Formoterol DPI the same as Formoterol Fumarate DPI?

Yes, Formoterol DPI is also known as Formoterol Fumarate DPI. The two names refer to the same dry powder inhaler product, with formoterol fumarate being the specific salt form of the active ingredient used in the formulation.
