Proportion of children requiring modification (increase/decrease) in dose of inhaled corticosteroids at Day 90 from baseline. 4. Proportion of children with mild-moderate, severe, and life-threatening asthma exacerbation (defined as per GINA, 2016) over 90 days between study groups. Timepoint: 90 days

Secondary
