What is being tested?
The study is testing the effectiveness of CHF 1535 pMDI (a combination inhaler containing Beclomethasone Dipropionate/Formoterol Fumarate) against CHF 718 pMDI (Beclomethasone Dipropionate alone) in adults with asthma who are already using medium to high doses of inhaled corticosteroids.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include throat irritation, hoarseness, coughing, headaches, and possible increased risk of infections. Long-term use might affect bone density or cause eye issues like cataracts or glaucoma.

Study Objectives
Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.Primary outcome measures
Change from baseline in FEV1 Area Under the Curve from 0 to 12 hours post-dose (AUC0-12h) at Week 12 calculated as the difference of the values for CHF 1535 pMDI 800/24µg total daily dose (TDD) and CHF 718 pMDI 800µg TDD.
Secondary outcome measures
Change from baseline in peak FEV1 within the first 3 hours post-dose at Week 12 calculated as the difference of the values for CHF 1535 pMDI 800/24µg TDD and CHF 718 pMDI 800µg TDD.

- No Placebo-Only Group - All patients enrolled in this study will receive some form of active treatment.
- Pivotal Trial - The final step before approval, pivotal trials feature drugs that have already shown basic safety & efficacy.
Timeline:
This trial has the following timeline:- Screening: It may take up to 3 Weeks to process to see if you qualify in this trial.
