A 12-week, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multicenter, Parallel Group, Phase III Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of PT027 Compared to PT008 and PT007 Administered QID in Adults and Children 4 Years of Age or Older With Asthma

AV004

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, parallel group study to compare 2 dose levels of budesonide/albuterol BDA MDI (PT027) to its components budesonide BD MDI (PT008) and albuterol AS MDI (PT007) on improvement in lung function and asthma symptoms after 12 weeks of treatment in adult, adolescent, and child subjects with symptomatic asthma currently being treated with a short/rapid-acting β2-adrenoreceptor agonist (SABA) as needed alone or with low-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) maintenance therapy plus SABA as needed.
