What changed for Asthma

A plain English summary of what recently moved in the public data Voxsanity tracks for Asthma. Updated from government registries. Not medical advice.

How to read these changes: every figure on this page is the difference between two snapshots of what Voxsanity had tracked on each date. Voxsanity only began taking daily snapshots in July 2026 and is still ingesting the public registries, so a rise here is mostly our own coverage expanding rather than new research appearing. Read it as our tracked coverage growing, not as a claim about real-world research changing this fast: it overstates how much actually changed.

Comparing the two most recent snapshots, 27 July 2026 and 28 July 2026.

  • NCT04609878 · results posted 30 June 2026

    According to the results reported on ClinicalTrials.gov, this trial (known as KALOS) enrolled 2,144 adults with asthma across four treatment groups. The groups tested two different dose combinations of a triple-ingredient inhaler called BGF MDI (at lower and higher doses of one ingredient), a double-ingredient inhaler called BFF MDI, and a commonly used comparator inhaler called Symbicort. The trial ran for 24 weeks and primarily measured two things: changes in lung function (specifically how much air participants could forcefully breathe out in one second, known as FEV1) and the rate of sever...

  • NCT03926741 · results posted 20 May 2026

    According to the results reported on ClinicalTrials.gov, this trial enrolled 48 people in total — 10 healthy participants and 38 with asthma. The study was investigating how the lungs process a substance called GSNO (S-nitrosoglutathione), which occurs naturally in the airways. To do this, researchers measured two things in participants' breath and lung function: the level of nitric oxide in exhaled breath (called FeNO, a by-product of GSNO breakdown), and the amount of air a person can forcefully breathe out in one second (called FEV1, a standard check of how well the lungs are working). All...
