A Histamine Pharmacodynamic Biomarker to Guide Treatment in Pediatric Asthma
Abstract
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study comparing asthma control post treatment in African American/Black and Caucasian/White children in both hyper and hypo responsive HILD (Histamine Lontophoresis with Laser Doppler monitoring) phenotypes with uncontrolled persistent allergic asthma using Levocetirizine (LTZ) vs placebo.
Conditions: Allergic Asthma.
Primary outcome: Therapeutic response to antihistamine.
Enrollment: 55 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 55 participants or records.
