This study investigates the characteristics of adolescents with severe asthma. Asthma is a condition where the airways in the lungs become inflamed and narrow, making it difficult to breathe. The purpose of this study is to understand more about these patients and how their asthma is managed.
Participants will receive an investigational medication and the study will assess how well their asthma is controlled over a year. The study will also look at other health issues related to Type 2 inflammation and monitor the safety of the treatment.
- Who can participate: Adolescents aged 12 to 17 years, who have been prescribed an investigational medication for severe uncontrolled asthma, may be eligible to participate. Adults 18 years and older are not eligible.
- Study details: Participants will take an investigational medication for their asthma. They will attend regular assessments to evaluate how well their asthma is controlled. Safety will also be assessed during the treatment period.
- Study Timelines: The study will last 52 weeks.
