  • Research summary

    This multiple rising-dose trial will be randomised, double-blind, and placebo-controlled within dose groups. A total of 60 patients will participate in the trial according to 5 sequential groups of 12 patients each. Within each dose group 9 patients will receive the active drug and 3 will receive placebo. One dose is tested within each group. The primary objective of the current study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of BI 144807 in otherwise healthy, controlled asthmatic male and female subjects of non-child bearing potential following oral administration of repeated rising doses over 14 days. A secondary objective is the exploration of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of BI 144807 after multiple dosing and to describe the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship.
