A positive bronchodilation test within 24 months before informed consent or at screening. 6. The subject has received medium-to-high dose ICS combined with at least one control drug, such as LABA, LAMA, LTRA, theophylline, for at least 3 months before signing the informed consent, and maintained stable treatment regimen and dosage for at least 1 month before signing the informed consent. 7.

Exclusion Criteria: 1. Received biological agents with the same therapeutic purpose within 6 months before signing the informed consent. 2. Prior autoimmune disease or inflammatory treatment with biologic agents/systemic immunosuppressive agents within 8 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to informed consent. 3. Received immune globulin or blood products within 30 days before informed consent. 4. Subjects treated with systemic corticosteroids other than for the treatment of asthma from 8 weeks before signing the informed consent to the date of randomization. 5. Received live or attenuated vaccine within 3 months before informed consent signing or planned to receive live or attenuated vaccine during the study period. 6. Initiation of desensitization therapy within 3 months before informed consent. 7. Underwent bronchial thermoplasty within 12 months before informed consent. 8. Current smokers or former smokers who quit smoking less than 6 months or former smokers who quit smoking more than 6 months with a smoking history of more than 10 pack-years. 9. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or other lung disease that may impair lung function, as judged by the investigator. 10. Active infection or acute infection requiring systemic anti-infective therapy from 4 weeks before enrollment to the time of randomization. 11. Previous history of known or suspected immunosuppression, including a history of invasive opportunistic infection, even if the infection has resolved; or the presence of unusual frequent, recurrent, or prolonged infections. 12. History of malignancy. 13. The presence of any severe and/or uncontrolled medical condition that in the judgment of the investigator may affect the evaluation of the drug, including but not limited to: severe neurological disease, history of severe mental disorder, major cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus poorly controlled by intensive treatment, QTcF interval prolongation, or persistent arrhythmia. 14.

Subjects with abnormal liver and kidney function, such as aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase\>2× ULN, or serum creatinine\>1.5× ULN. 19. Have systemic diseases other than asthma that result in an elevated peripheral blood eosinophil count or other diseases such as helminth parasitic infections for which standard treatment is not received or does not respond. 20. Allergy or intolerance to components of CM326 injection or placebo or history of severe drug allergy or anaphylactic shock. 21. Have been enrolled in a clinical trial of any drug or medical device within 3 months before signing informed consent, or are within the follow-up period of a clinical study or the five half-lives of the trial drug (whichever is longer) before signing informed consent. 22. Subjects who have used heavy alcohol within 3 months before screening. 23. History of drug abuse within 5 years before signing informed consent. 24. The investigator considers that there are any conditions that may prevent the subject from completing the study or present a significant risk to the subject or other factors that may reduce the likelihood of enrollment.
