Understanding severe asthma in children
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at different types of severe asthma in children to understand what causes them. By taking part, your child will help researchers learn more about childhood asthma, which may lead to better treatments in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must have already been in the SAMP Cohort study.
- Asthma must be moderate to severe, diagnosed at preschool or school age.
- Your child's legal representative (parent or guardian) must agree, and your child should agree if possible.
- Your child cannot be in any other clinical study at the same time.
- Your child must have health insurance coverage.
