What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pre-bronchodilator FEV1 at the Clinic
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
Change from baseline: treatment period average minus baseline. Treatment period average defined as the mean of all available data during randomized treatment that occurred on or prior to treatment failure. Treatment failure defined as worsening asthma symptoms resulting in increased dose of inhaled corticosteroid.
Twelve week treatment period

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Morning and Evening PEF
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
Change from baseline: treatment period average minus baseline. Treatment period average defined as the mean of all available morning (evening) PEF during randomized treatment that occurred on or prior to treatment failure. Treatment failure defined as worsening asthma symptoms resulting in increased dose of inhaled corticosteroid.
Twelve week treatment period
Asthma Control Questionnaire 5-item (ACQ5)
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
The ACQ5 consists of 5 questions, each assessed on a scale from 0-6, where 0 represents good asthma control and 6 represents poor asthma control. The overall score is the mean of the responses. The minimal important difference is defined as a change in score of 0.5. Change from baseline: treatment period average minus baseline.
Twelve week treatment period
Adverse Events
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
Number of participants who had at least one adverse event during the randomized treatment period
Twelve week treatment period
Number of Participants With at Least One Severe Asthma Exacerbation
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
Severe asthma exacerbation defined as deterioration in asthma leading to either hospitalization/emergency room treatment or oral glucocorticosteroid treatment for at least 3 days
Twelve week treatment period
Number of Participants With at Least One Treatment Failure
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
Treatment failure is defined as a clinical need for additional inhaled corticosteroid use as judged by the investigator based on evaluations at the clinic.
Twelve week treatment period
Number of Participants With Well-controlled Asthma (ACQ5<=0.75)
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
The ACQ5 consists of 5 questions, each assessed on a scale from 0-6, where 0 represents good asthma control and 6 represents poor asthma control. The overall score is the mean of the responses. Well-controlled asthma is defined as ACQ5<=0.75 at the end of the 12-week treatment period.
Twelve week treatment period
Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ(S))
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
The AQLQ(S) consists of 32 questions, each assessed on a scale from 1-7, with higher values indicating better health-related quality of life. Overall scores are calculated from the means of the individual scores. The minimal important difference is a change in score of 0.5. Change from baseline: treatment period average minus baseline.
Twelve week treatment period
Asthma Symptom Score
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
Asthma symptoms, measured in the morning and evening, based on a scale from 0-3 with higher scores indicating more severe asthma symptoms. Total asthma symptom score (0-6) is calculated by taking the sum of the morning and evening scores. Change from baseline: treatment period average minus baseline.
Twelve week treatment period
Total Reliever Medication Use
Time Frame: Twelve week treatment period
Reliever medication use (number of inhalations), measured in the morning and evening. Total reliever medication use is calculated by taking the sum of the number of daytime and evening inhalations of reliever medication. Change from baseline: treatment period average minus baseline.
Twelve week treatment period
