ASTHMA, Inc. (Associated Scientists to Help Minimize Allergies) is a non-profit clinical research center focused on studies involving asthma, allergies, eczema and sinusitis. We conduct research studies for companies that want to test experimental medications, devices or treatments for asthma, allergies and other allergic diseases.
Two physicians of Northwest Asthma and Allergy Center (NAAC) founded ASTHMA, Inc., a non-profit organization, in 1972. Their goal was, and is today, to investigate new treatments in allergy, asthma, and immunology. The research and development divisions of major pharmaceutical companies, the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) support clinical investigations. Today, 12 allergy and immunology board certified physicians, 2 nurse practitioners and a physician assistant are involved in clinical research studies. The physicians are affiliated with the University of Washington School of Medicine and Children’s Hospital and Regional Medical Center in Seattle, WA. Since 1972, ASTHMA, Inc. has conducted nearly 500 FDA approved clinical trials.
