Change From Baseline to 1 Month Measurement of Pre-bronchodilator FEV1Baseline (Day 0) and 1 month after Day 0

Only patients with both a non-missing value at baseline and visit at one month are included in the analysis

Change From Baseline to Overall Mean of Treatment Period in AQLQ(S) (Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire Standardised Version) Overall ScoreBaseline (Day 0), Treatment Period (1,3, and 6 months)

The AQLQ is a 32-item disease specific questionnaire designed to measure functional impairments in asthma. Patients are asked to score each item on a 7-point scale based on the experience of last 2 weeks. The overall AQLQ score is the mean response to all 32 questions. Therefore, the possible highest score (better) would be 7 and the lowest (worse) would be 1. Changes in scores of 0.5 to 1.0 are considered clinically meaningful; 1.0 to 1.5 as moderate and \> 1.5 as marked clinically important differences for any individual domain or for the overall summary score.

Change From Baseline to Overall Mean of Treatment Period in ACQ-5 (Asthma Control Questionnaire, 5-item Version) Total ScoreBaseline (Day 0), Treatment Period (1,2,3,4, and 6 months)

The ACQ-5 is a validated questionnaire consisting of 5 items for the assessment of asthma symptom which are night symptom, morning symptom, limitation for the activities, shortness of breath, and wheeze. Each item is graded on a scale of 0-6 and the questions are equally weighted. The ACQ-5 score is the mean of the 5 questions and therefore between 0 (totally controlled) and 6 (severely uncontrolled).
