Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess the effects of Budesonide/ Formoterol Fumarate (BFF) MDI administered with a spacer relative to Symbicort Turbuhaler on lung function.;Secondary Objective: To assess the effects of BFF MDI administered with a spacer relative to Symbicort Turbuhaler on additional measures of lung function.;Primary end point(s): Peak change from baseline in FEV1 within 4 hours post-dose following 1 week of treatment.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 1 | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1) Area under the curve for change from baseline in FEV1 following 1 week of treatment. 2) Change from baseline in pre-dose FEV1 following 1 week of treatment. 3) Change from baseline in 2-hour post-dose inspiratory capacity (IC) following 1 week of treatment, 4) Change from baseline in pre-dose PIF (InCheck Device set to no resistance, resistance set equal to Turbuhaler S, and resistance set equal to ELLIPTA) following 1 week of treatment. 5) Change from baseline in 2-hour post-dose FEV1 following the first dose. 6) Change from baseline in 2-hour post-dose IC following the first dose.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline, day 1 and week 1 | — |
