Study Summary

"This trial will investigate the effects of soluble fiber on asthma. Participants will be given either soluble fiber or a placebo, and their gut microbes will be analyzed through blood, fecal, and nasal samples.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and adults with asthma. Participants must complete a dietary recall questionnaire to assess their fiber intake. They should be willing to take additional soluble fiber or placebo as part of the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing whether adding soluble fiber (NOVELOSETM 3490) to the diet can improve asthma symptoms. It's a randomized controlled trial, meaning people are randomly assigned to receive either the fiber supplement or a placebo.See study design

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Active Control
Placebo Group
Group I: Fiber Consumption and the Gut Microbiome Composition in a Pediatric Asthma CohortActive Control1 Intervention
Participants are asked to complete a dietary recall questionnaire (ASA 24) that evaluates dietary intake in the last 24 hours. Participants are also sent home with a stool kit and instructions to collect a fecal sample for microbiome analysis. The purpose of the study is to better understand the pathways that connect diet and asthma.
Group II: A Phase II Randomized Controlled Trial of Soluble Fiber for AsthmaPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants are asked to fill out a dietary recall questionnaire (ASA 24) to determine eligibility in the study. If eligible, a nasal wash and blood sample will be collected at the first visit. Study drug or placebo will be given to participant after their visit in a randomized double-blinded nature. The participant will also fil out an Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) and be sent home with 3 stool kits for analysis. Participant will turn in one sample after first visit, the second in three weeks, and the last one after the second study visit. At this second study visit, procedures from the first study visit will be repeated.
