Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ(5)) Score From Baseline at a Regional Level

    Participants' levels of asthma control were scored on a 7-point Likert scale from 0 to 6, whereby 0 represents good control and 6 represents poor control of asthma. The regional mean change of overall ACQ(5) score were calculated as change from baseline (Week 0) to the average during the treatment period (mean of scores at Week 4, Week 8, Week 12).

    Baseline and 12 weeks
