Upstream Bio, Inc. is conducting a study titled ‘A Long-Term Extension Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Verekitug (UPB-101) in Adult Participants With Severe Asthma Who Completed the VALIANT Trial.’ The study aims to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of the drug verekitug (UPB-101) in adults with severe asthma, highlighting its significance in potentially improving asthma management.
The study tests two interventions: verekitug, a drug administered via subcutaneous injection, and a placebo. The purpose is to evaluate the treatment’s effectiveness and safety over an extended period.
This interventional study is randomized with a parallel assignment. It uses a quadruple masking approach, meaning that participants, care providers, investigators, and outcomes assessors are unaware of the treatment allocations. The primary goal is treatment-focused.
The study began on May 9, 2025, with primary completion expected in 2026. The latest update was submitted on September 15, 2025. These dates are crucial for tracking progress and anticipating results that could influence market dynamics.
For investors, this study update could impact Upstream Bio’s stock performance, especially if the results are positive, as it could enhance the company’s market position in the asthma treatment sector. Competitors in the respiratory treatment market may also be affected depending on the outcomes.
The study is currently recruiting, with further details available on the ClinicalTrials portal.
