Summary

This trial is testing a new medication called SC lunsekimig as an add-on therapy for asthma treatment. It will involve male and female participants with asthma who are not eligible for other biologic treatments

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18 to 80 with high-risk asthma who aren't eligible for biologic treatments. Participants will be involved in the study for about a year, with up to 18 visits.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Lunsekimig as an add-on therapy compared to a placebo. It's double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who gets the real treatment or placebo during the study.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, common ones associated with new asthma treatments may include injection site reactions, headaches, and potential worsening of asthma symptoms.
