A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial on Efficacy and Safety of Fluticasone Propionate/Albuterol Sulfate Combination in Participants 12 Years and Older With Asthma
The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy of fluticasone propionate/albuterol sulfate multidose dry powder inhaler with electronic module (Fp/ABS eMDPI).
Secondary objectives are:
* To evaluate the efficacy of Fp/ABS eMDPI administered four times daily
* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Fp/ABS eMDPI administered four times daily over four weeks
* To investigate the pharmacokinetics of Fp/ABS eMDPI, ABS eMDPI and Fp eMDPI after administration of a single dose
The planned study duration for each participant is approximately 10 weeks, excluding an optional prescreening visit.
