Description

This is a multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group noninferiority trial of GSK3511294 (depemokimab) 100 mg SC compared with continuation of mepolizumab

or benralizumab treatment in participants with severe asthma with an eosinophilic

phenotype. At Visit 2 (Week 0) those participants who meet the randomisation eligibility criteria will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to either remain on their existing anti-IL-5/5R therapy (mepolizumab or benralizumab) or switch to GSK3511294 100 mg.

Throughout the study, all participants will continue their baseline standard of care (SoC)

asthma treatment. Assessments will include the rate of clinically significant exacerbations and measures of lung function, asthma control, and safety.

or benralizumab for at least 12 months. On medium to high dose inhaled corticosteroid treatment  Have never smoked or have less than 20 pack years smoking history (number of pack years = (number of cigarettes per day / 20) x number of years smoked).
