1. Male and female children = 6 years and < 12 years at the time of study entry.
2. Written informed consent by parent(s)/legal guardian(s) for the pediatric patient and assent by the pediatric patient (depending on local requirements) must be obtained before any study-specific assessment is performed.
3. Confirmed documented diagnosis of asthma, as defined by national or international asthma guidelines for at least 6 months prior to study
enrollment.
4. Patients using low dose ICS as asthma controller therapy for at least 4 weeks prior to first treatment.
5. Patients who are familiar with the use of an inhaler device.
6. Patients must be able to comply with the Study Visit Assessment Schedule which includes approximately 7 hours on two occasions, and
agree to blood draws as scheduled.
7. Parents/ legal guardian must be willing and able to attend study visits and assist the child with the procedures outlined in the protocol.
Are the trial subjects under 18? yes
Number of subjects for this age range: 32
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) no
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
1. Use of other investigational drugs within 5 half-lives of enrollment, or [within 30 days (for small molecules) /until the expected pharmacodynamic effect has returned to baseline (for biologics)], whichever is longer.
2. Patients with weight < 17kg at screening.
3. Patients currently taking MF products for any reason at least 7 days prior to Day 1. Patients can enroll if MF was discontinued at least 7 days prior to Day 1 and MF is substituted with a different steroid during entire study duration to avoid its potential impact on PK assessment. These MF
products include inhalation, topical and/or nasal spray formulations.
4. Patients on medium- and high- dose ICS or any dose ICS/LABA combination.
5. Patients taking maintenance controller therapy (eg LABAs and theophylline) within 4 weeks of screening or during the study. LTRAs are permitted provided that patients have been on a stable dose for 4 weeks prior to screening. Patients using short-acting bronchodilators on occasional basis as rescue medication can enroll, however, these medications must be withheld at least 8 hours prior to study dosing visits and during PK sampling.
6. Contraindicated for treatment with, or having a history of reactions/hypersensitivity to any of the following inhaled drugs, drugs of a similar class, or any component there of:
•Adrenoreceptor agonist agent
•Lactose or any of the other excipients of the study drug (including patients with history of galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption)
•Corticosteroids
•Indacaterol and/or MF
7. History of chronic lung disease other than asthma within 3 months of first treatment visit (Day 1), cystic fibrosis, mycobacterial or other infection (including active SARS-CoV-2, tuberculosis or atypical mycobacterial disease).
8. History of active bacterial, viral or fungal infection (including SARS-CoV-2) within 6 weeks of first treatment visit (Day 1).
9. Patients who have had an asthma attack/exacerbation requiring systemic steroids or hospitalization or emergency room visit within 6
weeks of first treatment visit (Day 1).
10. Patients who, in the opinion of the investigator, are not able to comply with study treatment or who have any medical or mental disorder, situation, or diagnosis, which could interfere with the proper completion of the study protocol requirements or pose a safety risk while participating in the study.
11. Parent/guardian has a history of psychiatric disease, intellectual deficiency, substance abuse, or other condition (e.g. inability to read, comprehend and write) which will limit the validity of consent for their child to participate in this study.
12. Hemoglobin levels outside normal ranges at screening.
13. Any surgical or medical condition which might significantly alter the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of drugs, or which may jeopardize the patient in case of participation in the study.
14. Patients who have a clinically significant ECG abnormality or clinically significant abnormal lab values reported at Screening Visit.
15. Patients with a history of long QT syndrome or whose corrected QT interval (QTc) measured at Screening Visit (Fridericia method) is prolonged (= 450 msec for males and females 6 - 12 years old).
16. Use of any prescription drugs, herbal supplements, prescribed medicinal use of cannabis/marijuana, within four weeks prior to initial dosing, and/or over-the-counter (OTC) medication, dietary supplements within two weeks pr

Name Time Method Main Objective: To compare the systemic exposure of mometasone furoate resulting from single orally inhaled doses of QMF149 75/40 µg administered via the Concept 1 unit dose dry powder inhaler versus the MF Twisthaler® 100 µg metered dose dry powder inhaler in pediatric asthma patients (= 6 to < 12 years of age).;Secondary Objective: -To evaluate the systemic exposure of indacaterol resulting from single orally inhaled doses of QMF149 75/40 µg.<br>-To evaluate the safety and tolerability of QMF149 75/40 µg after single dose administration in pediatric patients.<br>;Primary end point(s): -Maximum observed mometasone furoate plasma concentration (Cmax)<br>-Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to the last sampling time point 6h (AUC0-6h) of mometasone furoate;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 6 hours post-dose on Day 1 and Day 6
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): Systemic exposure to indacaterol in plasma;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: pre-dose, 0.25 and 1 hour post-dose on Day 6
