A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Reslizumab (0.3 or 3.0 mg/kg) as Treatment for Patients (12-75 Years of Age) With Eosinophilic Asthma
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether reslizumab, at a dosage of 0.3 or 3.0 mg/kg administered once every 4 weeks for a total of 4 doses, is more effective than placebo in improving lung function in patients with eosinophilic asthma as assessed by the overall change from baseline in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1).
