Can one of the clinical management protocols include both adults and children?
Yes. The RFA indicates that one trial must focus on pediatric asthma management and one on adult asthma management. The RFA also indicates that a goal of AsthmaNet is to include studies that cross the age span. If one of the protocols spans the ages, and the other protocol focuses on one age group, it is still responsive to the RFA as long as, taken together, the application demonstrates strength in both adult and pediatric asthma.
