Brief Summary:

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of TEV-48574 compared with placebo on loss of asthma control (LoAC) in adult participants with T2-low and non-T2 severe asthma uncontrolled on inhaled corticosteroids plus long-acting beta-agonists (ICS+LABA).

The secondary efficacy objective is to evaluate the effect of TEV-48574 compared with placebo on a range of clinical measures of asthma control.

The duration of participant participation in the study is planned to be up to approximately 30 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants Who Experienced Loss of Asthma Control (LoAC) During the Treatment Period [ Time Frame: From randomization (Week 0) until Week 16 ]
    The LoAC was defined as any 1 of the following during the treatment period: - morning peak expiratory flow (PEF) decrease ≥30% from baseline on 2 consecutive days or morning handheld forced expiratory volume in the first second of exhalation (FEV1) decrease ≥20% from baseline on 2 consecutive days; - increase in short-acting beta-agonist (SABA)/quick-relief medication ≥6 puffs over baseline use in 24 hours on 2 consecutive days; increase in inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) dose ≥4 × most recent dose; - systemic corticosteroid use; - asthma emergency room (ER) visit or hospitalization.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time From Randomization to LoAC During the Treatment Period [ Time Frame: From randomization (Week 0) until Week 16 ]
    Time (in days) from randomization to LoAC during the treatment period is the interval from randomization to the occurrence of the LoAC. The LoAC was defined as any 1 of the following during the treatment period: - morning PEF decrease ≥30% from baseline on 2 consecutive days or morning handheld FEV1 decrease ≥20% from baseline on 2 consecutive days; - increase in SABA/quick-relief medication ≥6 puffs over baseline use in 24 hours on 2 consecutive days; increase in ICS dose ≥4 × most recent dose; - systemic corticosteroid use; - asthma ER visit or hospitalization.

  2. Change From Baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire 6-Question Version (ACQ-6) Score at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 ]
    The ACQ-6 is a 6-item validated asthma assessment tool that has been widely used. Six questions are self-assessments (completed by the participant), 5 questions assessing asthma symptoms: night-time waking, symptoms on waking, activity limitation, shortness of breath, wheezing, and 1 question for short-acting bronchodilator use. Each item on the ACQ-6 has a possible score ranges from 0 to 6, and the total score is the mean of all responses. The total score ranging from 0-6 (0=totally controlled and 6=severely uncontrolled). A higher score indicated poorer asthma control.

  3. Change From Baseline in Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in the First Second (FEV1) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 ]
    FEV1 (measured by handheld spirometer) is the volume of air that can be forcibly exhaled from the lungs in the first second. The percent predicted FEV1 equals the participant's observed FEV1 divided by the participant's predicted FEV1 (determined by height and race) and converted to a percentage by multiplying by 100%.

  4. Change From Baseline in Daily Average Use of Short-acting Beta-agonist (SABA) Quick Relief Medication at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 ]
    Number of inhalations/puffs of SABA/quick relief inhaler used was recorded in the e-diary daily.

  5. Number of Participants Who Had a Clinical Asthma Exacerbation (CAE) During the Treatment Period [ Time Frame: From randomization (Week 0) until Week 16 ]

    The CAEs during the study were defined as a worsening of asthma symptoms resulting in any 1 of the following: - the use of systemic corticosteroids (oral or injectable); - an emergency department visit due to asthma treated with systemic corticosteroids; - an inpatient hospitalization due to asthma.

    Worsening asthma included new or increased symptoms or signs that either worried the participant or were related to an asthma-specific alert (if available through the e-diary/handheld spirometer).


  6. Time From Randomization to First CAE During the Treatment Period for Participants With CAE [ Time Frame: From randomization (Week 0) until Week 16 ]

    The CAEs during the study were defined as a worsening of asthma symptoms resulting in any 1 of the following: - the use of systemic corticosteroids (oral or injectable); - an emergency department visit due to asthma treated with systemic corticosteroids; - an inpatient hospitalization due to asthma.

    Worsening asthma included new or increased symptoms or signs that either worried the participant or were related to an asthma-specific alert (if available through the e-diary/handheld spirometer).


  7. Change From Baseline in Number of Nighttime Awakenings Due to Asthma at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 ]
    Participants recorded the number of nighttime awakenings due to asthma in the e-diary daily, in the morning.

  8. Percent Change in ICS Dose During the Treatment Period [ Time Frame: From randomization (Week 0) until Week 16 ]
    The ICS dose was not collected in the participant diary as planned.

  9. Change From Baseline in Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 ]
    FVC (measured by handheld spirometer) is the volume of air that can be forcibly and completely blown out after full inspiration, measured in liters.

  10. Change From Baseline in Forced Expiratory Flow at 25-75% of Pulmonary Volume (FEF25%-75%) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 ]
    The FEF25%-75% (measured by handheld spirometer) is the forced expiratory flow from 25% to 75% of FVC

  11. Change From Baseline in Fractional Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 16 ]
    FeNO was performed prior to the on-site spirometry.

  12. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [ Time Frame: From randomization (Week 0) until Week 24 ]
    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity during the conduct of a clinical study and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. Serious adverse events (SAEs) included death, a life-threatening adverse event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized the participant and required medical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed in this definition. AEs were considered treatment emergent (TEAEs) if onset occurred on or after the first dose date. A summary of serious and non-serious AEs regardless of causality is located in 'Reported Adverse Events module'. AEs include clinically significant changes from baseline in any one of the following categories: clinical laboratory test results, vital signs, ECG findings.
