Remission in Adults With Severe Asthma in Thailand

The goal of this observational study is to determine the prevalence of remission among adults with severe asthma, as well as the factors associated with remission in Thailand.

The main question the study aims to answer is:

What is the prevalence of remission among adults with severe asthma in Thailand? Participants will complete questionnaires on asthma symptoms and undergo pulmonary function testing and a blood test once.

About this study

This study is a cross-sectional study. Thai patients aged 18 years or older with severe asthma are included in the study. Participants will complete two questionnaires about asthma control: the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) and the Asthma Control Test (ACT), and will perform spirometry, a fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) test, and blood eosinophil counts (BEC).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • severe asthma
  • age 18 years or older

Exclusion criteria

  • inability to perform spirometry or fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) test

Treatment and study plan

Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) and Asthma Control Test (ACT) questionnaires

Other

GINA and ACT are questionnaires used to assess the level of asthma control.

Spirometry

Diagnostic Test

Spirometry is a tool used to assess pulmonary function.

Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) test

Diagnostic Test

FeNO is a tool used to assess eosinophilic airway inflammation and asthma remission.

Blood eosinophil count (BEC)

Diagnostic Test

BEC is a tool used to assess eosinophilic inflammation and asthma remission.

Primary outcomes

  1. Prevalence rate of severe asthma remission

    Time frame: The beginning of the study

    Prevalence rate of remission in adults with severe asthma

Secondary outcomes

  1. Association of clinical characteristics with severe asthma remission

    Time frame: The beginning of the study

    The association between severe asthma remission and the following variables will be evaluated:

    • Asthma symptom control; Asthma Control Test (ACT) score (range 5-25)
    • Exacerbation history; Number of asthma exacerbations requiring systemic corticosteroids in the previous 12 months
    • Oral corticosteroid use; Daily oral corticosteroid use (yes/no) and cumulative dose (mg/year)
    • Asthma duration; Years since asthma diagnosis
  2. Association of lung function with severe asthma remission

    Time frame: The beginning of the study

    The association between severe asthma remission (binary outcome: remission vs. non-remission) and pulmonary function assessed using spirometry (FEV1 % predicted and FEV1/FVC ratio).

  3. Association of inflammatory biomarkers with severe asthma remission

    Time frame: The beginning of the study

    The association between severe asthma remission (binary outcome: remission vs. non-remission) and inflammatory biomarkers assessed using blood eosinophil count (cells/µL) and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) (parts per billion, ppb).
