1. Provision of informed consent prior to any study-specific procedures
2. Men and women 18 to 85 years of age, inclusive, with body mass index (BMI)35 or less
3. Subjects need to be non-smokers or ex-smokers (have quit e cigarettes or other inhaled tobacco products 6 months or more before Visit 1) with a total smoking history of less than 10 pack-years (not applicable for e cigarettes)
4. Documented clinical diagnosis of asthma for 6 months or more before Visit 1
5. Subjects on stable medium to high dose ICS (equivalent of budesonide >400 microgram/day) or low to medium dose ICS/LABA for at least 4 weeks prior to screening (Visit 1) (Appendix A, GINA, 2018)
6. Subjects must demonstrate reversibility to inhaled bronchodilators at Visit 2 (a 12% or more and 200 mL or more improvement in FEV1 after administration of a 4 puffs of salbutamol/albuterol)
7. Pre-bronchodilator FEV1 at Visit 3 between 40% and 90% predicted
8. At Visit 3, subjects need to be symptomatic on low dose ICS as evidenced by combined daily asthma mean symptom score of >1 over the previous 7 days or SABA use on 3 of the last 7 days or more during the Run-in Period
9. Demonstrate the ability to use the study inhalation device properly
10. Subjects able to perform acceptable pulmonary function testing for FEV1 according to American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society (ATS/ERS) acceptability criteria
11. Subjects is willing and able to follow study procedures and restrictions. Women of child bearing potential (WOCBP) should be stable on their chosen method of highly effective birth control for a minimum of 3 months prior to Visit 1, and willing to use that for the entire duration of the study (from the time they sign the informed consent), and for 1 month after the last dose of IP
12. For optional inclusion in the Gx component of the study, subjects must provide separate informed consent for the genomic sampling and analysis
1. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to any of the IPs, including budesonide, or excipients, including lactose
2. Systemic steroid use within the 6 weeks before Visit 1
3. Concomitant chronic respiratory disease (including current sleep apnea)
4. History or clinical suspicion of any clinically relevant or active disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may either put the subject at risk because of participation in the study, or influence the results or the subjects's ability to participate in the study, or any other safety concerns in the opinion of the Investigator
5. Use of prohibited medications that cannot be stopped during the entire period of the study (starting Visit 1).
6. Subjects with <80% eDiary compliance during Run in Period at Visit 3
7. ACQ-5 of 3 or more at Visit 1, Visit 2, or Visit 3
8. Daily rescue use of SABA 12 puffs or more for 3 consecutive days or more at any time during Run-in Period, before randomization
9. Any clinically important abnormalities in rhythm, conduction or morphology of the digital ECG at rest and any abnormalities in the digital ECG (at Visit 1 or Visit 3) that, as considered by the Investigator, may interfere with the interpretation of QT interval corrected (QTc) interval changes
10. Prolonged QT interval corrected using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) 450 msec or more based on ECG at Visit 1 or Visit 3; or family history of long QT syndrome
11. PR (PQ) interval prolongation (>240 msec), intermittent second or third degree atrial-ventricular (AV) block or AV dissociation at Visit 1 or Visit 3
12. Subjects with implantable cardiac defibrillator and subjects with sustained symptomatic ventricular and/or atrial tachyarrhythmia
13. Subjects with unstable angina pectoris or stable angina pectoris classified higher than Canadian Cardiovascular Society Class II, or a myocardial
infarction or stroke within 6 months before Visit 1
14. History of hospitalisation within 12 months before Visit 1 caused by heart failure or a diagnosis of heart failure higher than New York Heart Association Class II
15. Subjects who are positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) at Visit 1
16. Donation of blood ( 450 mL or more) within 3 months or donation of plasma within 14 days before Visit 1
17. Suspected poor capability to follow instructions of the study, as judged by the Investigator
18. Previous participation or prior screen failure in the current study, or participation in any other research study within 1 month prior to Visit 1
19. Subjects under treatment with biologicals such as monoclonal antibodies or chimeric biomolecules including omalizumab, mepolizumab, and reslizumab within 6 months or 5 half-lives before Visit 1, whichever is longer
20. Subjects treated with any investigational drug within 30 days (or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer) prior to Visit 1
21. Positive drug screening result that cannot be justified by subject's medical history and its relevant treatment (over-the-counter product or a valid prescription), or history of or current alcohol or drug abuse (including marijuana and marijuana-containing valid prescriptions), as judged by the Investigator
22. Planned in-patient surgery, major dental procedure or hospitalisation during the study
23. Pregnant woman or lactating woman
24. Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both AstraZeneca staff, contra
