A Phase III, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Lebrikizumab in Patients With Uncontrolled Asthma Who Are on Inhaled Corticosteroids and A Second Controller Medication


This randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study will
assess the efficacy and safety of lebrikizumab in patients with asthma whose disease remains
uncontrolled despite daily therapy with an inhaled corticosteroid and a second controller
medication. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to receive double-blind treatment
with subcutaneous lebrikizumab ("highest", "middle", "lowest" dose) or placebo every 4 weeks
for 52 weeks, in addition to their standard-of-care therapy. This will be followed by a
52-week double-blind active treatment extension. The anticipated time on study treatment is
up to 104 weeks. There will be a safety follow-up of 24 weeks after the last dose of study
drug for all patients.

the prescribed dosing range)

- Uncontrolled asthma as defined by protocol both during screening period and at time
