Who this study is looking for
In plain language, from the study's own rules. The study team confirms the full details with you — this isn't a final yes or no.
✅ You may be able to join if…
- •Have mild atopic asthma that is clinically stable (FEV1 is at least 70% of what’s predicted)
- •Have an allergy confirmed by a positive skin prick test
- •Be willing and able to do lung function tests and other study procedures
- •If you can get pregnant, agree to use highly effective birth control plus a condom during the study and for at least 90 days after the study (or after the last study medicine), whichever is later
🚫 You may not be able to join if…
- •Have an important lung disease other than asthma
- •Use certain medicines that could affect the allergen breathing challenge or inflammation (including corticosteroids, immunosuppressives, or anti-inflammatory medications that interfere, or chronic other allergic-asthma medicines)
- •Have a history or current condition that makes a methacholine challenge unsafe
Are you a good fit?
Simplified highlights. The study team always confirms the full details with you.
- ✓Adults roughly 18–65
- ✓Have COPD (chronic lung disease) or Asthma

Yes. This treatment has already been through earlier human studies for safety before reaching this stage.
What you need to know before you apply
What is this study testing?+
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of inhaled ARO-RAGE on the late asthmatic response (LAR) following an inhaled allergen challenge in participants with mild atopic asthma.
Is it safe? Who makes sure of that?+
This is a mid-stage study (Phase 2), looking at safety and whether the treatment works. Every study is reviewed and monitored by an independent ethics board (called an IRB) whose job is to protect participants, and care is overseen by licensed medical staff. You'll be told the known risks before you agree to anything, and you can stop at any time.
Will I get a placebo instead of the real treatment?+
Some studies compare a treatment against a placebo (an inactive version), and some don't. If this one does, the study team will explain your chances of receiving the active treatment before you decide. Nothing is hidden from you.
Do I have to stop taking my current medications?+
It depends on the study. Some let you stay on your current medications and some ask you to adjust them. Never stop a medication on your own — the study team will review everything with you first.
Does it cost anything? Will I be paid?+
The study treatment and study-related visits are provided at no cost to you. Some studies also pay for your time; the coordinator can tell you if this one does. You should never be asked to pay to take part.
Do I need insurance? Will anyone ask about my immigration status?+
No. You do not need health insurance to take part in a research study, and you will not be asked about your immigration status to join. Taking part is about whether you're a medical fit for the study.
What if English isn't my first language?+
You have the right to understand everything before you agree. Study sites can often provide materials or an interpreter in your language — you can ask the coordinator for one.
Is my information private?+
Yes. Your health information is only shared with the study sites you choose to be contacted by, and only to help match and enroll you. It is never sold, and you can ask us to delete it at any time.
