A Double-dummy, Double-blind, Randomized, Active Controlled, Two-way Cross-over Study With 12 Week Treatment Duration Period, to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of QVM149 (Indacaterol Acetate / Glycopyrronium Bromide / Mometasone Furoate) Compared to Salmeterol Xinafoate/Fluticasone Propionate in Children From 12 Years to Less Than 18 Years of Age With Asthma.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of indacaterol acetate / glycopyrronium bromide / mometasone furoate (QVM149) compared to salmeterol xinafoate / fluticasone propionate in children from 12 to less than 18 years of age with asthma with pre-bronchodilator FEV1 ≥ 50 % of the predicted normal value for the participant.
• Male and female adolescent participants aged from ≥ 12 years old to less than 18 years old at screening visit
• Participants with a documented diagnosis of persistent asthma (according to Global Initiative for Asthma GINA 2024) for a period of at least 1 year prior to screening.
• Participants who have used medium or high dose ICS with LABA in combination (GINA 2024) for asthma for at least 3 months and at stable doses for at least 1 month prior to screening
• Participants must be symptomatic / inadequately controlled according to the Investigator's opinion despite treatment with medium or high stable doses of ICS with LABA in combination (GINA 2024) before screening
• Participants who demonstrate an increase in FEV1 of ≥ 12% within 15 to 30 minutes after administration of 200-400 μg salbutamol/180-360 μg albuterol at run-in visit
• Pre-bronchodilator FEV1 ≥ 50% of the predicted normal value for the participant according to American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society (ATS/ERS) 2019 criteria at both run-in and before randomization
