Full title of the trial

• Male or female subjects > 18 years
• Subjects with a documented history of asthma for a period of at least 6 months

a. of non-child-bearing potential;
OR

A subject will be eligible for inclusion in this study only if all of the following inclusion criteria for the treatment period are met at randomization:
• Subjects with a control status of ‘Well-controlled’ asthma excluding subjects with a control status of ‘Total control’ during the last 8 weeks of the run-in period

E.4

Principal exclusion criteria

A subject will not be eligible for inclusion in this study if any of the following criteria are met:
• Subjects who have been hospitalised for their asthma within 4 weeks of Visit 1
• Subjects who had an acute upper respiratory tract infection within 4 weeks or a lower respiratory tract infection within 4 weeks prior to Visit 1
• Subjects who received oral, parental or depot corticosteroids within 4 weeks prior to Visit 1
• Subjects who have a known respiratory disorder other than asthma and/or systemic/thoracic abnormalities which influence normal lung function
• Subjects who have received any investigational drugs within 4 weeks of Visit 1
• Subjects with a known or suspected hypersensitivity to inhaled steroids, β2-agonists or lactose
• Subjects who use any medication that significantly inhibits the cytochrome P450 subfamily enzyme CYP3A4, including ritonavir and ketoconazole
• Subjects who concurrently participate in another clinical study
• Subjects who have previously been randomised in this study
• Smoking history: Subjects who have more than 5 pack years
• Subjects who currently smoke

Subjects will be excluded from participating in the treatment period of the study if the following, in addition to the exclusion criteria for entry into the run-period, occurred during the run-in period:
• Any change in their run-in asthma medication
• Non-compliance with the completion of the eDRC
