Study to Demonstrate Equivalence of Formoterol 12 and 24 µg Delivered Via Two Types of Single Dose Dry Powder Inhalers (Concept1 and Aerolizer)

March 24, 2017 updated by: Novartis

A Randomized, Multi-centre, Double-blind, Double Dummy Placebo Controlled Single-dose Cross-over Study to Demonstrate That 12 and 24 µg of Formoterol Delivered by Concept1 Has a Bronchodilator Efficacy Which is Equivalent to the Same Dose of Formoterol Delivered by Aerolizer in Adult Patients With Persistent Asthma

This study is designed to demonstrate that formoterol 12µg and 24µg delivered by a new inhalation device (Concept1) are equivalent to the corresponding dose of formoterol delivered by the Aerolizer device in terms of efficacy, in patients with persistent asthma.
