Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• diagnosis of persistent asthma of =6 months duration

• body weight =18 kg

• able to discontinue prescribed inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) or ICS combined with long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) before starting study medication

• use of a low or medium daily dose of ICS (either alone or in combination with a LABA) with no use of oral corticosteroids within 3 months prior to Screening Visit

• stable asthma regimen (daily dose unchanged) for =2 weeks prior to Screening Visit

• documented positive responsiveness to bronchodilators

• ability to use a peak flow meter correctly and to perform spirometry and PEF measurements

• ability to use an inhaler correctly

• consent/assent for the trial and for pharmacogenetic testing (Note: If unwilling to consent/assent for pharmacogenetic testing, inclusion in the study is still allowed, but no pharmacogenetic samples will be obtained.)

Exclusion Criteria:

• history of clinically significant renal, hepatic, cardiovascular, metabolic, neurologic, hematologic, ophthalmologic, respiratory, gastrointestinal, cerebrovascular, or other significant medical illness or disorder that may interfere with study participation. Specific examples include but are not limited to insulin-dependent diabetes, active hepatitis, cardiovascular disease including hypertension, or conditions that may interfere with respiratory function such as, bronchiectasis, and cystic fibrosis
