Secondary Outcomes (18)

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Pre-dose/Pre-bronchodilator (Pre-BD) Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 Second (FEV1) at Week 52

    Randomization to Week 52

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Standardized Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire for 12 Years and Older (AQLQ(S)+12) Total Score at Week 52

    Randomization to Week 52

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Asthma Control Questionnaire-6 (ACQ-6) Score at Week 52

    Randomization to Week 52

  • Mean Change From Baseline in Weekly Mean Daily Asthma Symptom Diary Score at Week 52

    Randomization to Week 52

  • Time to First Asthma Exacerbation

    Randomization to Week 52

  • +13 more secondary outcomes
