Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess the successful administration of tezepelumab (210 mg, subcutaneous) by injection with an accessorized prefilled syringe (APFS) or autoinjector (AI) in the clinic and at home.;Secondary Objective: To assess the functionality of the APFS or AI devices utilized to administer tezepelumab in clinic and at home. To assess the performance of APFS or AI devices used to administer tezepelumab in clinic and at home. To monitor the metrics of asthma control in subjects. To assess the pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of tezepelumab administered via APFS or AI in clinic and at home, and to assess the safety and tolerability of tezepelumab.;Primary end point(s): Proportion of healthcare providers (HCPs) and subjects/caregivers who successfully administered tezepelumab in clinic and at home with APFS. Proportion of healthcare providers (HCPs) and subjects/caregivers who successfully administered tezepelumab in clinic and at home with AI.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 0, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 16, Week 20 | — |
