The investigators know from existing evidence that having increased levels of interferon (IFN) reduces asthma exacerbations and viral load. The investigators suspect that IL-5 reduces the immune response during viral infection in bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) by reducing levels of IFN. The aim is to investigate if increased IL-5 in stable eosinophilic asthma and asthma exacerbations suppresses anti-viral immunity in bronchial epithelial cells and in peripheral blood mononuclear cells directly via IL-5 receptor signalling, suppressing rhinovirus induction of IFNs. The investigators also will evaluate if anti-IL-5 therapies suppress IL-5 concentrations in stable and exacerbated asthma in vivo and whether suppression of IL-5 in vivo restores deficient anti-viral immunity in BECs and PBMCs, thereby protecting against asthma exacerbations.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Those with mild asthma on as required salbutamol only.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Must be eligible for the study 'Mechanisms of Adverse Effects of Long-Acting Beta-Agonists in Asthma' (MAELABA) (19SM5101)."}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06026202', 'briefTitle': 'Non-Eosinophilic Biological Effects of IL-5', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Imperial College London'}, 'officialTitle': 'Non-Eosinophilic Biological Effects of Interleukin 5 (IL-5) - Role of IL-5 in Suppressing Anti-Viral Immunity in Bronchial Epithelial Cells and Dendritic Cells in Asthma', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '326910'}}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'W2 1NY', 'city': 'London', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'United Kingdom', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Sebastian L Johnston, MBBS', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 's.johnston@imperial.ac.uk', 'phone': '+442075943764'}, {'name': 'Eva Fiorenzo, BMBS', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'efiorenz@ic.ac.uk', 'phone': '+442075943751'}], 'facility': 'Imperial College London', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 51.50853, 'lon': -0.12574}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Sebastian L Johnston, MBBS', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 's.johnston@imperial.ac.uk', 'phone': '+44 20 7594 3764'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Imperial College London', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
