  • History of endotracheal intubation for asthma-related exacerbation within 3 years of screening
  • Respiratory illness within 4 weeks of screening
  • History of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or other chronic pulmonary condition other than asthma
  • Received long-acting beta agonist, theophylline, inhaled anticholinergics, oral beta 2 agonists, or cromolyn therapeutics within 1 week of first run-in visit.
  • Leukotriene antagonists within 2 weeks before first run-in visit
  • Oral or parenteral corticosteroids within 6 weeks before first run-in visit
