Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Normalised Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) Area Under the Curve Over the 24-h Period After 6 Weeks of Treatment
Time Frame: Week 6
Change from baseline in normalised FEV1 area under the curve over the 24-h period immediately after morning Investigational Medicinal Product administration (AUC0-24h ) after 6 weeks on treatment. The normalised AUC were calculated by means of a trapezoidal method, dividing by the corresponding time interval.
Week 6

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time Frame: Week 6
Change from baseline in normalised FEV1 area under the curve over the 12-h night-time period (AUC12-24) after 6 weeks of treatment. The normalised AUC were calculated by means of a trapezoidal method, dividing by the corresponding time interval.
