Effect of KIT Inhibition by Imatinib on Airway Mast Cells in Patients with Severe Refractory Asthma (KIA)

Methods We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center 24 week proof-of-principle trial of imatinib in severe asthmatics with persistent airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and poor asthma control despite maximal inhaled corticosteroid and long-acting beta-agonist therapy.
