简要总结

QVAR in a standard press and breath inhaler (QVAR-MDI) has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the United States. The purpose of this study is to determine the level of asthma control when comparing the safety and effectiveness of QVAR in two different devices, a metered dose inhaler (MDI) and a breath operated inhaler (BOI).

详细描述

This investigation is a multicenter, randomized, placebo and active controlled, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two doses of QVAR-BOI in adolescents and adults.
