Detailed description
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-period cross-over study in asthma patients. The study will consist of a screening epoch, followed by a treatment epoch which consists of three treatment periods, and will conclude with an end of study epoch. Each subject will be assigned to 1 of 6 treatment sequences and will sequentially receive the investigational products and placebo during the trial.

Mean Overall Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF)
A Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) meter was distributed to patients at Visit 1, to be used to measure PEF twice-daily as directed. During the Screening and Treatment Periods, PEF was measured in the morning and evening every day. the morning PEF was performed within 15 minutes after waking, and the evening PEF approximately 12 hours later. The highest of 3 values was recorded as the daily personal best. The personal best was used to calculate the mean morning PEF and mean evening PEF value collected between assessment Visits LS Mean of change from baseline in mean morning PEF is calculated with the ANOVA model using treatment, stratification group, dosing schedule, gender, center grouping, smoking status, and baseline mean morning PEF as covariates
