Further study details as provided by University of Saskatchewan:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Airway responsiveness (PC20) to methacholine delivered over two minutes of tidal breathing [ Time Frame: Visit 1 (Day 1) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The two minute tidal breathing PC20 with be captured once at visit 1.

  • airway responsiveness (PD15) to inhaled mannitol [ Time Frame: Visit 2 = up to 13 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The PD15 to mannitol will be captured once at either visit 2 or visit 3.

  • Airway responsiveness (PC20) to deep inhalation methacholine [ Time Frame: Visit 3 = up to 14 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    The PC20 to methacholine (deep inhalation) will be captured once at either visit 2 or visit 3.

Estimated Primary Completion Date: November 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Methacholine (Provocholine) with deep inhalation Drug: Methacholine (Provocholine)
two minutes of aerosol inhalation of concentrations of methacholine ranging from 0.03 - 256mg/mL
Experimental: Mannitol (Aridol) Drug: Mannitol (Aridol)
