NCT ID NCT04743791

Summary

This study is testing whether the medication dupilumab helps clear mucus from the lungs of people with moderate-to-severe asthma. Over 12 weeks, 30 participants will receive either dupilumab or a placebo to see if it improves their lung's natural cleaning process. Researchers will use special imaging scans and breathing tests to measure changes in mucus clearance and asthma control.
