Brief summary

This is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study designed to investigate the potential effect of a fixed dose of benralizumab administered subcutaneously (SC) on antibody responses following seasonal influenza virus vaccination

Detailed description

This study is designed to investigate the potential effect of benralizumab on the antibody response to the seasonal influenza virus vaccine in patients 12-21 years of age with asthma. Benralizumab will be given subcutaneously (SC) at Weeks 0, 4, and 8 weeks, at which time benralizumab levels will reach steady state. Patients will then receive 1 dose of intramuscular (IM) seasonal influenza virus vaccine at Week 8 and samples drawn at Week 8 and Week 12 to measure the antibody response to the influenza virus

Interventions

DRUGBenralizumab

Benralizumab SC administered every 4 weeks for 3 doses (Weeks 0, 4, and 8).

Placebo administered every 4 weeks for 3 doses (Weeks 0, 4, and 8).

DRUGSeasonal influenza virus vaccine

Patients will receive 1 dose of seasonal influenza virus vaccine Intramuscular (IM) at Week 8.
