Main objective

Scope: Safety, Efficacy

Main Objective of D5982C00007
1. To assess the effect of Budesonide, Glycopyrronium, and Formoterol Fumarate Metered Dose Inhaler (BGF MDI) relative to Budesonide and Formoterol Fumarate (BFF) MDI or Symbicort Pressurized MDI on lung function in participants with inadequately controlled asthma.
Main Objective of Pooled Studies D5982C00007 and D5982C00008
1.To assess the effect of BGF MDI relative to BFF MDI or Symbicort pMDI on asthma exacerbations in participants with inadequately controlled asthma.

Secondary objectives 3

1. Secondary Objectives of D5982C00007 1. To assess the effect of BGF MDI relative to BFF MDI or Symbicort pMDI on lung function in participants with inadequately controlled asthma.
2. 2. To assess the effect of BGF MDI relative to BFF MDI or Symbicort pMDI on lung function, PROs, and symptoms in participants with inadequately controlled asthma.
3. Secondary Objectives of Pooled Studies D5982C00007 and D5982C00008 3. To assess the effect of BGF MDI relative to BFF MDI or Symbicort pMDI on asthma exacerbations in participants with inadequately controlled asthma.

Eligibility criteria

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor

Inclusion criteria 11

4. 4. ACQ-7 total score ≥1.5 at Visits 1, 3, and 5 (pre-randomization).

6. 6. FEV1 post-albuterol at V2 or V3 (if repeat needed). • Participants > and/or = 18 years of age: Increase > and/or = 12% and > and/or = 200 mL. • Participants 12 to <18 years of age: Increase =12% either in the 12 months prior to Visit 1 or at Visit 2, or at Visit 3. • Note: Even if there is documented history of reversibility, all participants must be assessed for reversibility at Visit 2 (and Visit 3, if reversibility is not demonstrated at Visit 2) to provide reversibility baseline data for characterization.
7. 7. Willing and, in the opinion of the Investigator, able to adjust current asthma therapy, as required by the protocol.
8. 8. Demonstrate acceptable MDI/pMDI administration technique.
9. 9. Received no asthma medication other than run-in BFF MDI BID and albuterol as needed during screening (except for allowed medications as defined in Table 9 and systemic corticosteroid or ICS for the treatment of an asthma exacerbation).
10. 10. eDiary 14-day compliance ≥70% during screening (defined as completing the daily eDiary for any 10 mornings and any 10 evenings and answering "Yes" to taking 2 puffs of run-in BFF MDI for any 10 mornings and 10 evenings in the last 14 days prior to randomization).
11. 11. No respiratory infection in the 4 weeks prior to randomization, or asthma exacerbation treated with systemic corticosteroid and/or additional ICS treatment in the 4 weeks prior to randomization.

Exclusion criteria 21

1. 1. Completed treatment for respiratory infection or asthma exacerbation with systemic corticosteroids within 4 weeks of V1.
2. 7. Use of oral beta2-agonist within 3 months of V1.

7. 12. Known history of drug or alcohol abuse within 12 months of Visit 1.
