Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Reslizumab
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo
Treatment: Drugs - Non-Oral Corticosteroid (non-OCS) Asthma Medication
Treatment: Drugs - Oral Corticosteroid (OCS)

Experimental: Reslizumab 110 mg - Reslizumab was administered by subcutaneous injection (sc) in a dosage of 110 mg (1.0 mL) every 4 weeks for a total of six doses.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo - Matching placebo was administered by subcutaneous injection (sc) 1.0 mL every 4 weeks for a total of six doses.


Treatment: Drugs: Reslizumab
Reslizumab 110 mg was administered by qualified study personnel as subcutaneous injections in the upper arm(s) once every 4 weeks for a total of 6 doses. Drug was supplied in pre-filled syringes.

Treatment: Drugs: Placebo
Placebo was administered by qualified study personnel as subcutaneous injections in the upper arm(s) once every 4 weeks for a total of 6 doses. Drug was supplied in pre-filled syringes.

Treatment: Drugs: Non-Oral Corticosteroid (non-OCS) Asthma Medication
Participants continue using their non-OCS background asthma medications without change during the study's treatment period.

Treatment: Drugs: Oral Corticosteroid (OCS)
After screening and prior to study start, the participant's OCS dose was adjusted to determine the minimal effective OCS requirement.

Summary
Brief summary
The primary objective of the study is to determine the ability of reslizumab administered by
subcutaneous injection to produce a corticosteroid-sparing effect in patients with oral
corticosteroid (OCS)-dependent asthma and elevated blood eosinophils, without loss of asthma
control.
