This study will use previously collected data from participants in two clinical trials of the NHLBI-funded Asthma Clinical Research Network (ACRN): the Best Adjustment Strategy for Asthma in Long Term (BASALT) study (NCT00495157) and the Tiotropium Bromide as an Alternative to Increased Inhaled Corticosteroid in Patients Inadequately Controlled on a Lower Dose of Inhaled Corticosteroid (TALC) study. There will be no additional study visits specifically for this study. Researchers will examine blood samples collected at participants' first BASALT or TALC study visit to analyze levels of inflammation biomarkers (including tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], interleukin-6 [IL-6], and leptin) and proinflammatory cytokines levels, which influence glucocorticoid insensitivity. Additional BASALT and TALC study data, including lung function, asthma symptoms, and asthma exacerbations, will also be analyzed.
