I have some news which could be of value to people with severe asthma. AstraZeneca is conducting a clinical trial for people who suffer from severe asthma who have symptoms that are otherwise uncontrolled with current standard therapy.

The trial shall study the effectiveness and safety of the investigational drug administered to patients with severe asthma whose symptoms are otherwise uncontrolled with current standard therapy.

As a CureClick Ambassador I want to share this information with my readers because it could be helpful in the treatment of the disease.

Information about the clinical trial and eligibility requirements are listed below.

For those of you whom are not familiar with clinical trials, here's some information that you can use:

What Are Clinical Trials?

Clinical trials are research studies to determine whether investigational drugs or treatments are safe and effective for humans.

All investigational devices and medicines must undergo several clinical trials, often times these clinical trials require thousands of people.

Why participate in a clinical trial?

People whom are eligible will have access to new investigational treatments that would be available to the general public only upon approval. 

People whom are eligible for clinical trials will also receive study-related medical care and attention from clinical staff at research facilities.

Clinical trials offer hope for many people and gives researchers a chance to find better treatment for others in the future.
