Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Patients with a documented diagnosis of asthma for a period of at least 3 months prior to Screening Visit - Patients who have used low dose ICS , with or without controller (ie, LABA, Leukotriene Receptor Antagonist ) at stable dose for at least 1 month prior to Screening Visit -Adult patients who are symptomatic despite treatment with existing therapy. Patients with ACQ-7 score = 1.5 at Visit 101 and at Visit 102 (inadequately controlled). - Adolescent patients : If taking only ICS (without LABA) and are symptomatic at screening despite treatment with low doses of ICS. These patients must have ACQ-7 score = 1.5 at Visit 101 and at Visit 102 . If taking ICS (low dose)/ LABA, and have ACQ-7 score =1 and =65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 35

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Patients who have smoked or inhaled tobacco products (including electronic cigarettes) within the 6 month period prior to Visit 1, or who have a smoking history of greater than or equal to 10 pack year. - Patients who have had an asthma attack/exacerbation requiring systemic steroids or hospitalization (> 24 hours) or emergency room visit (= 24 hours) as follows: For adults: within 6 weeks of Screening Visit. If patients experience an asthma attack/exacerbation requiring systemic steroids or emergency room visit between Visit 1 and Visit 102 they may be re-screened 6 weeks after recovery from the exacerbation For adolescents: Severe asthma attack/exacerbation requiring systemic corticosteroid in the last 6 months or hospitalization (> 24 hours) due to severe asthma attack/exacerbation requiring systemic corticosteroids in the last 6 months or emergency room visit (=24 hours) due to severe asthma attack/exacerbation requiring systemic corticosteroids within the last 6 months.. - Patients who ever required intubation for a severe asthma attack/exacerbation - Patients with a clinical condition (eg. glaucoma, cataract and fragility fractures) which may be worsened by ICS administration (according to investigator's medical judgment ) - Patients who have had a respiratory tract infection or asthma worsening within 4 weeks prior to Screening Visit or between Visit 1and Visit 102. Patients may be re-screened 4 weeks after recovery from their respiratory tract infection or asthma worsening. - Patients with any chronic conditions affecting the upper respiratory tract (eg.chronic sinusitis) which in the opinion of the investigator may interfere with the study. - Patients with a history of chronic lung diseases other than asthma, including (but not limited to) COPD, sarcoidosis, interstitial lung disease, cystic fibrosis, clinically significant bronchiectasis and active tuberculosis. - Patients with Type I diabetes or uncontrolled Type II diabetes. - Patients with narcolepsy and/or insomnia. - Patients on Maintenance Immunotherapy (desensitization) for allergies or less than 3 months prior to Visit 101 or patients on Maintenance Immunotherapy for more than 3 months prior to Visit 101 but expected to change throughout the course of the study. - Patients with diagnosed rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption or with known intolerance to lactose or milk products.
